A suggestion to promote Free Media
by Arun Prakash
Hello All,
I found that contributors of Fedora are trying hard to drive the free media Program . I recently found the mail requesting contribution to free media Program. Rather having to mail the CD/DVD with mailing charges, they can send the CD/DVD to places near by . Is that mandatory that a Ambassador should drive free media program ?
All the people who are available with the CD/DVD media can enrol themselves to that media distribution program , If a person from that locality request free media , we can point them to the resource holding person , so that the request is satisfied .
I am also interested in Free media program , I feel this . Please suggest me if I am wrong.
Regards,

[Request] IRC trainers, October 2, 2010
by Shakthi Kannan
Hi,
I had scheduled to conduct a one-day Free Software workshop on the
following topics at Mepco Schlenk Engineering College, Sivakasi, Tamil
Nadu, India [1] on Saturday, October 2, 2010, but, had to cancel the
trip in the last moment:
* di-git-ally-managing-love-letters: Session on git [2]
* i-want-2-do-project. tell-me-wat-2-do-fedora [3]
* Packaging RPM (Fedora) [4]
Today, I coordinated with their lab system administrator to try to
install and get IRC working [5] from the computers in the seminar hall
and the labs through their proxy, so we could possibly do an online
IRC training session in #fedora-india channel. It has been done now!
I would appreciate if there are more people who can also join in as
trainers for the online sessions between 0930 and 1700 IST on
Saturday, October 2, 2010, in case, I face Internet connectivity
problems or power failures in Hyderabad. If you are interested, please
let me know. My IRC nick is "mbuf" on irc.freenode.net. Everyone is
welcome to participate in the IRC sessions as well.
I would like to request to use #fedora-india channel because in future
if they have any doubts, they know where to ask!
Thanks,
SK
