Hi guys! Next October 27th in Italy will be an important event concerning Linux: Linux Day 2007 In different cities every LUG organize local event, with topic "Linux, free software and opensource". Last year we have more than one hundred events in more than an hundred cities! I've just added the link of the event to "Fedora Event page". It's impossible to be present on all event, but for "Lodi" (small city near Milan) I'll be ready ;-) Are there some ambasadors interessed to be present? Maybe in irc we could discuss about topics, dvds and so on... See you soon Bye Francesco

Dear Fedora user, All the French Fedora Team is glad to announce you the creation of the association of the French speaking Fedora users. We will need your help to drive this project where all the users of Fedora are working for the same goal, the promotion of Fedora. Why an association ? * In order to promote Free software in general and the Fedora distribution in particular. This promotion will lead to the creation of support for the Fedora promotion, from simple flyers to CD/DVD for the installation of Fedora. * To support our website, one of the most important tool for the French community. * An association helps to increase the presence of the French community and gives more weight to his talk, indeed an association has more credibility in front of its partners, ie Fedora project, Red Hat or others. You should notice that the association has no link with the Fedora project itself or Red Hat. The project has been informed of the creation of the association but did not encourage it or support it in any way. What are the goals of the association ? * Promote free software around a central element: the GNU/Linux distribution Fedora. * Promote Fedora on different associations and events or meetings. * Create a network integrating users and developers of the Fedora GNU/Linux distribution. What are our resources ? * The French ambassador team, localized all around France, involved in different Linux User Group and other association. * The dues from our members. * The sell of goodies (T-shirts, mugs, hat...) should financially help to the association. Who is at the head of the association ? The member of the board are: President: Thomas Canniot (MrTom) Vice-president: Armel Kermorvant (armelk) Treasurer: Johan Cwiklinski (trashy) Secretary: Guillaume Kulakowski (llaumgui) Other members of the board: Maxime Carron (Pingoomax) Thierry Delmonte (Titax) Charles Vinchon (littlecharly) All are Fedora ambassador. Why becoming a member ? * Because you wish to be imply in the association's activities. * Because you wish to financially support the association to promote the distribution GNU/Linux Fedora and Free Software, without being actively involved in these actions. * Because you can become a member from 10 euros. Who can become a member ? The association accepts all French speaking people who wish to help the promotion of the Free software and the GNU/Linux distribution Fedora. How to become a member ? We invite you to have a look at the procedure described on the association's website http://asso.fedora-fr.org/Comment_devenir_membre How to do a simple donation ? If you wish to do a simple donation, you can have a look at the website http://asso.fedora-fr.org/Dons How to be involved in the Association actions ? One of the first goal of the association is to create support for the Fedora promotion during different the events and meetings. If you wish to be involved, actually there are several projects for which we are looking for help: * Small books presenting Fedora * Flyers * Posters * Stickers * Pens * Keyrings * ... We are also looking for partners to create Fedora CDs/DVDs. Where to find information about the association ? One website for all information, http://asso.fedora-fr.org All the team of Fedora-fr association is available to answer your questions and help you to lead your projects. Fedora-fr Team.
