Fedora's participation in Open Weekends, Chennai

[Jai Pradeesh]

Hello all

I'm glad to inform that a slot is alloted for Fedora at Open Weekends
[1] happening  25th May 2013. It is a huge event planned by OSS
communities at Chennai and will target members from the local Linux
Community and recruiting contributors into Fedora.

I had started with the slides for the session and also planning for a
Fedora Installation Booth over there. It would be great if any of you
send me some slides on Fedora 19. Your ideas and suggestion are also
welcome.

Metrics:
#1 Spreading awareness on Fedora and its benefits.
#2 Recruiting contributors into Fedora according to their specific
area of interest.

Fedora 19 final isn't out yet[0] but there were[1] many slides available so
you can refer this, ask authors and get approved before going to use it
where necessary.

Hi Jai,

There are some slides here[1], but I doubt they are related to Fedora 19
specifically. The talking points for Fedora 19 are here[2], which should
provide information that you can use in your presentation.

If you plan to host a booth and need some swag etc. for it, please
create an event page based on this template[3] on the wiki and file a
ticket at the apac trac[5]. There's a page describing the event hosting
process here[4]. It doesn't look up to date, but will still provide you
some sort of a reference.

By the way, are you an ambassador yet? I can't find your user page on
the wiki :/
