Report: ICT Week, PETRONAS University of Technology

by Mohd Izhar Firdaus Ismail

On 14-16 April 2007 theres an ICT Week event at PETRONAS University of Technology (UTP), MohdIzharFirdaus (me) was representing Fedora there at our LUG booth on 15-16 April .. The booth was a success and I managed to distribute 50 Fedora 6 DVDs among students and some staff in UTP .. besides Fedora , 50 Ubuntu Ultimate was also distributed by a Ubuntu group in our LUG ... we also promoted to the visitors our local mirror of the Fedora & Ubuntu repositories - to help them to adopt linux not much activity was being done besides explaining to people who stopped at our booth about Linux and Free / Open Source Softwares, showing alternatives softwares that FOSS can provide etc ... I also distributed more than 150 flyers/brochures about Fedora & Fedora Project ... as expected, Beryl always impress people ... The students generally shows lots of interest about both of the Distro .. 2 of them actually came back on the second day of the booth saying that they installed fedora on their desktop ... and I can see more members in our #linux channel of our LAN IRC network .. ** Problems faced ** * trying to explain about how to install fedora to the people who dont understand the word "partitioning" ... I couldnt find a way to explain this to them and how to do it ... for those who understood partitioning and how to do it, i just told them to create 10GB of unallocated space and let anaconda handle the partitioning automatically ... -- ----------------------------------------------- regards Hikaru ----------------------------------------------- Mohd Izhar Firdaus Bin Ismail Amano Hikaru 天野晃「あまのひかる」 Universiti Teknologi PETRONAS ICT 2nd Year 1st Semester mohd.izhar.firdaus(a)gmail.com ----------------------------------------------- kagesenshi.87(a)gmail.com Blog: http://kagesenshi.blogspot.com -----------------------------------------------

Re: [Ambassadors] Active/Inactive Ambassadors+task+some idea

+1 to Greg Ama Mgbeoji https://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/AmaMgbeoji ----- Original Message ---- From: Greg Dekoenigsberg <gdk(a)redhat.com> To: fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com Sent: Monday, April 9, 2007 1:26:50 PM Subject: Re: [Ambassadors] Active/Inactive Ambassadors+task+some idea On Sat, 7 Apr 2007, Francesco Ugolini wrote: > Stay sure, we don't want to "kill" people, we know the different needs > of each ambassador. We want to shake people that do nothing. Why? Why do we want to "shake people that do nothing"? What harm do they do? And what's to say that someone who does nothing today won't be someone who does something vitally important later? And what's your threshhold for "activity" -- somebody says "I'm active"? The *only* effect of *any* inactivity policy will be to announce to people, "we don't want you, go away." My $0.02: once somebody says "I am a Fedora ambassador," then they are a Fedora ambassador, FOR LIFE. Until (a) they say "no thanks, I'm not an ambassador anymore," or (b) they do something that disgraces Fedora, and FAMSCO drums them out. ===== So let me back up and ask a question. What's the *real* goal here? Is the goal to recognize our best ambassadors? Is the goal to know who can be "counted upon" to get stuff done? What are we trying to accomplish with the active/inactive proposal? --g -- Greg DeKoenigsberg Community Development Manager Red Hat, Inc. :: 1-919-754-4255 "To whomsoever much hath been given... ...from him much shall be asked" -- Fedora-ambassadors-list mailing list Fedora-ambassadors-list(a)redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ambassadors-list __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
