Request for comments : Fedora media distribution process draft
by Ankur Sinha 06 Nov '10

06 Nov '10

Hello Fedora India Ambassadors! All of us like spreading Fedora to people around us. A major part of this is accomplished by speaking about Fedora (spreading the word) and providing interested users with Fedora media so they can try it out. The Fedora Distribution process[1] was initially set up as the central point of contact that was to handle and coordinate the different channels that are available to spread Fedora media around. Over the years, sadly, the coordination has been lost, and now we see the channels as independent bits. As a small example: You'll find tickets in the free media list from folks who have Ambassadors in their vicinities themselves. If the channels were coordinated, we could ask these people to contact the Ambassadors nearby and get themselves media burnt : saving time, effort *and* enabling the free media to be used for other people who don't have Ambassadors around them. Some of us have recently been working on tweaking the process. We've come up with a draft here[1] that we'd like you to please review and comment on. We also need more hands on board to help us bring this change about :) Can you please go through the page and provide your valuable feedback? PS : I've already sent a copy of the mail to the Ambassadors' list. I'm mailing the Fedora-India list so that we can also collect some India specific feedback.

Fedora 14 Feedback
by Sawrub 01 Nov '10

01 Nov '10

I recently after many arguments with my manager installed Fedora 14 in my office [ A full windoz house, some of the guys in IT dept not even heard of Thunderbird ] desktop and one of the best feedback that i got for it [Fedora] from one of my colleague goes like this. " are itna sahi UI aa gaya hai kya linux me....." Seems like we can add some thing like a "Great UI" to the publicity material, since it seems that people common still have the same image of the 'KAALI DUNIYA' the SHELLS when talking about linux. Thanks Saurabh Sharma

Dear All, We very glad about a workshop conducted at CIT (Chartered Institute of Technology, Aburoad, Rajasthan). Great overwhelming respond from the slight remote place. Although this is only a second year of the Institute excellent enthusiasm and interest shown by All student. We are invited by Mr. Shivram Faculty at CIT. At the first and Initial communication Mr. Shivram was not confident that this kind of "Free" workshop get any success or not. We went there for checking the lab before two days of event and tested few things to avoid any surprises at the time of event. Mr. Shivram want this workshop span for 3 days. (Friday Saturday and Sunday) We, Electromech team started at 7:30 from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, includes members Mr. Sham, Mr. Karan, Mr. Vimal (Rajkot). We reached slightly late due to heavy traffic. We started introduction session around 11:30 AM. Conducted two small quiz to check the knowledge among the student so we can conduct training accordingly. Unfortunate I left due to my busy schedule after lunch. Mr. Sham and our team again started after lunch with Fedora 13 installation. There were 60 students divided into two class room. (visualized in photographs) Each lab consist of 30 computers. Everybody perform Fedora 13 installation and prepared the system. Mr. Sham explained about RAID, LVM and some advance options at the time of installation. The response was unexpected starting from first day, Students do not want to leave class room even at 7:30 PM. Mr. Sham conducted the two more days workshop, supported by Mr. Vimal and Mr. Karan. Thanks to Mr. Shivram and CIT, Aburoad for inviting us and excellent hospitality. Our team delivered workshop for following topic. Basic understanding of FSH Basic Linux permissions User management Package management YUM and RPM Network configuration and management. Partition and mounting concepts. Process Management. Student had given excellent feed back, once we build chart from the same will published.
