Organizing a Fedora Women Day 2017 event
by Jona Azizaj 22 Sep '17

22 Sep '17

Hello ambassadors, Fedora Women Day (FWD) is a day of celebration dedicated to the female contributors of the Fedora Project. During this day of celebration, local communities around the world will gather to present the accomplishments of the women that are part of the Fedora Project and thank them. FWD is a great chance to promote the participation of more women, bring together contributors and raise awareness about the gender gap in tech communities. *When and where* This year FWD is planned to be organized during September. Since it is difficult to determine a specific date for an event like this, it is up to the local communities to pick the most appropriate date for them during the month of September. *Are you interested in organizing Fedora Women Day?* If you would like to organize a FWD event in your region, there is more information about event organizing on our wiki page <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Women_Day_2017>. It is important to *confirm your participation* as an organizer *by August 20th 2017*. There are a few guidelines to help you put together an event, such as agenda ideas and planning points for you to use. A FWD event also does not have to be in a physical place either. You can also participate remotely with one of the events happening in September via audio/video call. If you have any question feel free to ask us :) Thank you, Jona https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/organizing-fedora-women-day-2017/

Open Source Summit Europe is looking for event owner
by Jiří Eischmann 14 Sep '17

14 Sep '17

Hi, I was supposed to organize a Fedora presence at Open Source Summit Europe (formerly LinuxCon) in Prague on Oct 23-26, but I've got an important training at work at that week and can't participate. We've always been present at European LinuxCons and it'd be a pity if we weren't there this year. Brian (CC'ed) would like us to be part of the Red Hat booth. We need someone who will take over the ownership of the event, organize ppl, content of the booth, accommodation, travels etc. We should have 3 booth personnel (not necessarily ambassadors) there. Any volunteers? Jiri

Hi all: Just wanted to check Los Angeles ambassador and vicinity ambassador availabilities for an LA event here: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/open-source-summit-north-america/… Open Source Summit in Los Angeles, September 11-14. We just heard back from the Linux Foundation and they would love to have us if we are available. If you could let me know by 8/15 (or sooner!) if you would be able to ambassador for this event. If there's enough interest, we can then set up an event page. We'd need a minimum of 2 people. Please do not book any travel/accommodations at this time. Thank you, Perry Rivera

Open Source India 2017
by Joerg Simon 30 Aug '17

Dear Fellows, i just booked my flight to attend and speak at the Open Source India 2017 - October 13-14. I would be happy see the Indian Fedora Community and my indian friends from the null community attending, if you can, please join me ;) - and if not please spread the word! According to the planning i am invited to give a keynote and one technical session. The Keynote Topic will be an easy one - as my very first talk outside Germany was in Bangalore at the Nimhans Convention Center in 2009 during foss.in along with the Fedora Track Day - now 9 years later i will use the opportunity to wrap up what happened since then with my activities with Fedora, ISECOM and null - what we achieved and how it helped Open Source and Open Standards in general and how it helped in the real world. In my technical session i have planned to demonstrate how open standards like the Risk Assessment Value from ISECOM´s Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual, can be a perfect addition to the proprietary Thread Modelling, developed by vendors - i will demonstrate technical examples along with Fedora Security Lab - and also real world examples. As i already traveled to india on fedora budget this year - this time the Trip is kindly supported by the Conference Organizers and out of my "business"pocket ;) Open Source India is scheduled for October 13-14. The 14th edition of Asia's largest open source convention is taking place at NIMHANS Convention Centre in Bengaluru. The website has all the information you need https://opensourceindia.in/osidays/ cheers Joerg p.s. already confirmed tracks are Cloud and Big Data Cyber Security Day Open Source and You (Success Stories) Open Stack India (mini-conference) Application Development Container Day Database Day Open Source in IOT -- Joerg (kital) Simon jsimon(a)fedoraproject.org https://about.me/joerg.simon Key Fingerprint: 3691 0989 2DCA 58A2 8D1F 2CAC C823 558E 5B5B 5688 Call trans opt: received. 2-19-98 13:24:18 REC:Loc Trace program: running wake up, Neo... the matrix has you follow the white rabbit. knock, knock, Neo.
