Ok Alejandro, Bex and Lucena.
I have seen recently the link that Alex just gave me
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD:Cusco2017
It seems that everything is already arranged, including topics and costs.
In that case I do not see why I have to arrange a FAD in USIL.
Can I add my name on it to participate on July?
Thanks,
Julita
