Hi,
once again I'm here talking about Release Events.
- Why are they so important?
Simply, they introduce, in a human-friendly way, Fedora to the world.
They give the possibility to have a first look of what was done in the
previous 6 months and have people ready to give community the first
support for installation and explanation of all/most of the features.
- What can we do?
Like the past releases, we have to create something really special to
cheer the new release: a worldwide initiative, marked for its
distinctive signs, that mix both the knowledge and party sides.
- Can I hold a Release Event? What I have to do?
Sure. Just add your event in
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents. According to the release
schedule, we encourage to have such events in the first 2/3 weeks
after the release (May 26th, to stay sure, add a week).
During the next weeks I'll let you know about the other aspects
connected with this initiative (swags, meetings etc.).
My regards and the best wishes
Francesco Ugolini
