Hello,
I like a lot your idea to have FWD as a bird of a feather session at Ohio
Linux Fest and would love to hear the feedback of people that will attend
it. On the other hand, I understand your concern that you need more people
to help you organize it and I really hope that local ambassadors can help
you. Even though I strongly encourage you to organize it, even if only 5-10
people will join maybe their opinions/feedback would be really helpful for
us, +1 for my part to organize it. Please let me know how can I help you to
make it happen :)
Thanks,
Jona

Hello,
I am the President of the Ohio LinuxFest (OLF) which is a weekend
conference in Columbus, Ohio. We are scheduled for the 15th annual event on
September 29 and 30. Fedora has already reserved a table for the expo.
If it would be welcomed, I am interested in submitting a ticket for
holding FWD as a birds of a feather function. My concern is that I might
not have the energy that this entails to make FWD@OLF a success and hope
that other ambassadors would help.
Please let me know if others plus one this idea.
Thanks,
Beth Lynn Eicher
