Mid-America GNU/Linux Networkers Conference
by inode0
The Fedora ambassadors were contacted recently by the organizers of
MAGNet Con 2011 to find out if Fedora would like to participate in
this event in St. Louis, Missouri. It looks very promising to me as a
first effort in the heart of North America. Early details can be found
on their website at
http://magnetcon.info/
Fedora has at least one contributor I know of in St. Louis currently
although it is too early for his commitment to this event, so I would
like to ask other ambassadors from nearby if they would be interested
in helping to organize a Fedora presence and to represent the Fedora
Project in St. Louis this May.
Please raise your hands if you are interested!
Thanks,
John

Event reports
by Igor Pires Soares
Hello there!
I would like to kindly remind and invite all ambassadors to post events
reports on our Events wiki page [1]. I'm reinforcing the importance of
events reports because when I'm creating the FAmSCo reports I see that
many events lack their own reports.
Event reports are important for our community because contributors might
find interesting ideas, common interests, common difficulties and are
also a way to tell everybody what was accomplished. For contributors who
weren't able to attend an event without a report is like it has never
happened. The report is part of sharing our knowledge.
On the other hand there are events with a lot of good reports on our
Planet and sometimes is hard to pick just one. For events like FUDCon
Tempe and FOSDEM I would like to include an "official" report from the
event owners (or someone else) on FAmSCo report. Probably there are
already some reports we can use for both. So I'm accepting
suggestions! ;)
Keep on rockin' in the free world!

SXSW Planning
by inode0
I have read a whole lot of event planning pages on the wiki over the
past several years and I'm completely blown away by this one. Everyone
please take some time to read it.
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SXSW_2011
Wow. Fresh eyes, new ideas, unbridled enthusiasm. This is so great to
see. Máirín, Emily, and gang are going to blow the socks off of Austin
and are also going to inspire other event planners to try new things
at old events!
Are we all set to get an event box to Austin for SXSW? Does it need
extra stock swag? I'm guessing at this event as much as we can provide
will be eagerly consumed. I still have a few "special" shirts that I'd
be happy send to Austin.
