Bangladesh Fedora 9 Release Party : Report

[mak]

Dear all,

We (Bangladesh) had our "Fedora Release Party", it was a great evening.
Yesterday more than 50 Fedora lovers joined the party. We had Imtiaz
Rahi<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ImtiazRahi?highlight=%28imtiaz%29%7...
first Bangladesh Fedora Ambassador within us, he conveyed the "Fedora
Community talk", it was so inspiring that all of attendee liked to join
Fedora project. After that Zaher a student from BUET
<http://www.buet.ac.bd/>showed the new features of F9. He had to answer a
lot of questions regarding new features and about old bugs, thanks to Imtiaz
Rahi for helping him answering those geeky questions.

It was hot, so we had to have those drinks in midst of the party, anyway
thanks to "our sponsor" "SweetHome" who gave us all the support.
iso-to-USB-key creation station was too busy, we are sorry that we couldn't
do all the USBs given to us.

And of course, we've distributed free 100 Fedora 9 DVD, thanks to Jamil
Ahmed<http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/JamilAhmed?highlight=%28Ahmed%29%7...
downloaded F9 and burnt all the DVDs.

No one noticed the blurry settings of the camera and all pictures were bit
dark. I'm going to upload those on Flickr anyway.

At the end of the party everybody agreed to form "Fedora
Bangladesh<http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/FedoraBD/>"
group and opened a Yahoogroups<http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/FedoraBD/>;,
Gulam Mustafa was appointed as the moderator. This is the part that
community itself ruled over.

Sounds like another great release party!  The Live USB keys are great
and it sounds like your USB key creation station was busy.  Thanks for
all the hard work of the organizers!
