I Amabassadors, as Fedora Ambassador for Chile I have participated in organization of Flisol in Santiago de Chile. Flisol is Latin american Free software fest install. This event is a mix of fest install, exhibitions and stands of free software groups. This year, Santiago have up 600 persons as visitor, installers and users( they come with their computers and we install Free Software and Linux on it).
On event day I was on Fedora stand, showing Fedora Core 6 and Fedora 7 beta 4. I spoke with 60 people, some Fedora users and other new users. I spoke about benefits of use Fedora and repaired some problems of the installers as wireless module support, configuration of some programs and others.
This event was on Informatics engineering Department of Universidad de Santiago de Chile (USACH). Starting at 11:00AM and ending at 08:00PM.
The users who chose Fedora for installation went to home with a original Fedora Core 6 DVD. (They was 10 +-).
Soon I will send a link to see pictures of this day.
