Hello everyone.
As many of you know, I was a main organizer of Flisol Caracas this year, and also worked with the local Fedora Team on their presentation.
The Flisol had an estimated attendance of 1700 people, including 100 installers, 15 protocol and 15 sponsors. We had a hard day with 8 conferences and 12 workshops; as well as the first National tournament of UrbanTerror (a freeware game) and a gpg key sign fest. At the closing, we had the StarWars Club (Darth Vader and one StormTrooper) playing around with the guys.
Fedora Venezuela installed a lot of machines and gave out 300 LiveDVDs, 50 bubble stickers and 50 vinyl stickers; and the users were really happy with this. Pablo Hernandez (paceh) gave a workshop about Fedora-USB installations and I gave a Conference about the Fedora Community in Venezuela, and found a lot of new users.
I also want to say that we had two major interviews, one on national radio and another on national tv (globovision) and in both of them, Fedora was the centre of attention. This is really good...
Next year I'll be the National Organizer and I hope to set up the first Fedora Venezuela General Meeting with all the fedora users in the country. In the mean time, we'll have some workshops at several universities, some stands at national conferences (3 stands) and a special "B-day" for our community.
These are some of the photos... but I'm still waiting for more, and the video of the TV appearance.
