1. This is the msot important project for me personally - I am
working
on a website that will promote fedora in Sweden, that will assist new
and current users and more. Unfortunally there were a mayor set back 2
weeks ago. I have chosen to use free php solutions to save time, which
it didn't. And the script i choose from the beginning destroyed a lot of
my work by cutting of longer articles. I have been forced to start over.
I am happy with what i have now and work will continue.
Local websites are a great initiative, Mikael! Probably one of the best
ways to bridge the gap in between English-speakers and only-native-
language speakers.
You can also make Fedora more accessible to newbies by providing them
with easy-to-understand concepts and usage guidelines.
Remember, not everyone is as geeky (no offense here) as you.
2. I am active in the translation group so lot of my time will go to
that.
That's also great! BTW, does your community have an FC4 Install Guide in
Swedish? I believe that's the one document to start fomenting FC usage
among average computer users.
Because of sickness i haven't been able to do anything mayor
yet.
Which feels a bit disappointing...
3. I am ordering businesscards as soon as i have the money to pay for it.
Glad to hear it. I hope we are able to provide you with all support you
need. If not, please let us know.
4. As soon as I have a working and decent website, i plan to contact
the
mayor computer magazine in Sweden and tell them about it. They have
writen about stuff i have done before, so it should be any problems, but
who knows :)
Ask them if they'd like to write an article on FC5. Great opportunity to
expose the new release and also to recruit more contributors for the
various FC sub-projects ;))
5. I am supporting the Kadischi project, so far there have been some
translation. Whenever Kadischi needs me I am there :)
6. I am going to start looking into the events thing. What kinds of
events there are in Sweden, what kind of budget i need and stuff like
that. My economy doesnt allow any travelling right now, but i hope that
it will change soon.
As we got a very restricted budget, try to save whenever and wherever
you can i.e. finding local accommodation at friends places, low fares,
sharing booths with lugs and other open source projects...
These are some things that i am doing, i might have missed some but
its
atleast a little contribution ;)
Keep up the great work!
Yours,
