Various questions and comments:
- people who want to quit Windows OS;
- 5 Live-USB boot media from Fedora 29 Workstation and Xfce created;
- 3 people asked for playing under GNU/Linux distributions;
- people learned that, unlike other distributions, Fedora was destined
to have only free software;
- explanations were provided regarding the Red Hat link and the recent
IBM buyout;
- explanations were provided regarding what is a GNU/Linux distribution
and free software;
- thanks from Fedora users for the work done and the quality of the
distribution;
- why we didn’t have goodies for the event.
Only goodies we had were the Cheat Cubes from the work of nobrakal
https://nobrakal.fedorapeople.org/cheat_cubes_fr/ and people liked the
principle of this cube.
Thanks to gaia and kvfy for being here despite the distance of the trip
to assist me.
It was also an opportunity to say hello to bochecha and number80 from
Lyon, misc and Casper present for the week-end and GNOME community at
booth beside to us.
