Hello everyone, we are the Linux User Group (LUG) of Catania (Italy,
https://www.catania.linux.it), a community of FLOSS enthusiasts,
students and professionals. For years in our city we have been doing our
best to make Free Software and Open Source known, organizing events and
meetings about it. This year, in particular, after a pause given by the
pandemic situation, we are resuming organizing one of our biggest
events, simultaneously with the other cities of Italy: Linux Day 2021.
The Linux Day, https://www.linuxday.it/2021/, is an annual event mainly
organized by local LUGs that will be held in various places around the
country. Some of these events are little ones limited to a bunch of
passionate people and tinkerers, while other ones could be prominent
occasions to meet developers and other kind of FLOSS contributors. The
audience (and the number of attendees) you can meet at the event are:
curious people, beginners, hobbyists, high school students, IT
professionals, university students (where there is an university),
makers, and so on.
As in previous years, an installation party was also organized in 2019,
where we helped people choose which GNU/Linux distros to install on
their computer, and in particular we performed several Fedora
installations. Some photos here:

This year we would like to repeat the installation party, would it be
possible to support this event with some Fedora swag?
