* Air ticket from Belo Horizonte, Brazil to Panama (Round-Trip).
Cost: ~$950 from Gol Airlines.

as possible.)
* I intend to learn how the Fedora Community in Central America
is organized and what are their needs and perspectives about Fedora. As a
FAmSCo member it will be a good opportunity to get in touch with Neville
and other regional leaders to plan actions regarding the integration
between South and Central American communities. I would like to share the
experiences we had in Brazil on events such FISL in the last years. I also
intend to host an internationalization session in order to show how
software is internationalized in Fedora. Certainly we can get more i18n
testers and translators contributors in Central America.

locations, dates, and times.

- The cost of flight plus hotel would be around USD 1100 (travel) and USD
160 (hotel). A partial subsidy would help, USD 600 being the minimum
amount of money that would help me attend.
- As Fedora Ambassador my field of work here in Argentina is oriented to
the development of educational technology for children, specifically in
the area of free software educational robotics. I'm currently working with
Sugar Labs/OLPC (One Laptop Per Child), developing a low cost hardware to
use on XO Netbooks. I'm also part of a Latin American Robotics Network
with a software called "ICARO" of which I am the main developer [http
://sistema-icaro.blogspot.com].
I'm a Fedora Packager, handling the maintenance of the ICARO RPM Packages
[http://rpmdev.proyectofedora.org/wiki/icaro].
I'm interested in getting to know people who are working on the same field
as I am (children robotics under Fedora OS) with whom I'm in touch only
though web forums and e-mails.
- I'd like to take to the conferences some of the ICARO PCBs (Printed
Circuit Boards) to give to some of the people working on the same field in
Panamá and Venezuela.
- My work schedule is flexible, so I can manage to get free time in order
to attend the conferences. I could depart from Córdoba International
Airport on May 25 at 4:16 AM, flight number 464, and return on May 29 from
Tocumen Airport in Panamá City at 6:42 PM, flight number 463. Both on Copa
Airlines (times and flight numbers yet to be confirmed).

Finalizing a date for FUDCon Milan
by Max Spevack
So, looking at:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Bid_for_Milan_2011#Date
I see that there are basically two options:
# September 16-18 2011
# October 7-9 2011
The June date is, IMHO, way too soon to have a real chance.
Based on my experience in what it takes to organize a FUDCon, I'd think
that the October date would make the most sense, but it's not my
decision.
I wonder if any of the FUDCon Milan bid team have thought about how
they'll decide which date they want to make for FUDCon, so that it can
be announced and people can begin to make plans.

Hi,
In order to get descriptions for some of the key talks listed for FUDCon
Panama 2011 that we can use for press and promotion, the Local Team is
collecting these descriptions through tickets.
Would you be so kind to update the description of this ticket with more
information about your talk? An example of useful information is an
outline and what things should the audience be familiar with before the
talk.
Thanks!
