STF engajado com o Software Livre
by Teseu
Prezados,
É até com um certo orgulho que anuncio que o Supremo Tribunal Federal
criou recentemente o Núcleo de Software Livre e Padrões Abertos, para
o qual fui convidado a fazer parte, com o entuito de estudar o
processo de migração de suas licenças proprietárias. É só um começo, a
substituição do M$Office pelo BrOffice na TI, mas como piloto para
substituição em toda a casa e previsão de substituição de todas as
licenças possíveis.

SFD Event in Tunisia
by Zied Fakhfakh
Your excellencies,
I write on behalf of the Tunisian ambassadors, Nihed, Chiheb and Wael.
We will be celebrating the SFD in Tunisia somewhere next october.
we will file our event in the wiki, but we don't have already a fixed
date, since the SFD imply many organisms.
We will need to finance our preparations (DVDs, Posters, renting ...,
badges ....).
So, our question is: is it possible to add our event in the wiki,
without a "precise" date ?
kind regards,
Zied.

Spam messages etc.
by Francesco Ugolini
During the past FAmSCo meeting we take the decision to not proceed
with the past "not-voluntary" spam messages, due to the clear mistake
done by their senders.
Moreover, I want to repeat myself and ask everyone to pay attention
when you use Mass mails services that could cause confusion in the
List and make it less usable.
Hope I'll give all the answer you need
Best regards

by Tushar Neupaney
Dear ambassadors,
I am conducting a three day workshop in BPKIHS, Dharan, this is a medical
university and I hope that at least a 1000 people will attend.
To make this opportunity an event of a lifetime and utilize it to motive
many to use Linux is my prime goal.
Can anyone contribute to the materials that are needed to be discussed in
the workshop.
The things that should not be missed and anything special that can be done
economically and easily to motive people.
The tentative date of starting is August 20. (Date still flexible)
We can support:
1. Hall for workshop.
2. Some computers (Not all can get one! limitation due to the crowd)
3. We also have a small set of volunteers (Count: 30)
4. Other supports are still to come....
Hoping to get some support,
Best Regards,
Tushar.

I just joined Fedora Ambassadors
by Saahil Hakimuddin
Hi,
I am Saahil Hakimuddin and i am an undergraduate student at Manipal
Institute of Technology, Karnataka, India. I am pursuing my Bachelor of
Engineering degree from this institute in Computer Science and Engineering.
I have been using linux since 2 years now, been using fedora 8 since october
last year and have now completely moved on to open source. I am a member of
the Linux User Group in my institute. I have a working knowledge of C++,
java, html, flash and other web development tools. I am also doing a self
learning course of Android SDK. I plan to take part in programmes related to
spreading awareness about open source platforms, how powerful open source
development tools can be and the role of peer discussions and public forums
in the world of open source technology. I want to represent my country India
from Manipal, Karnataka region.
thanks for your help and support

directed.

the Fedora project for Portugal. We have the support of you.
Besides me, the Brazilian ambassador Erick Goes are contributing. We support
the Brazilian project in Portugal, for growth of Linux Fedora.
