2009/2/19 Rangeen Basu <sherry151(a)gmail.com>:
1> Introduction to Linux and Fedora (Arindam's slides)
2> Installation(using DVD) and configuration( probably using a local
mirror)
3> Talk on Myths about Linux busted with Fedora (Subodip's slideshow)
4> A demo and workshop on the various softwares and utilities.
5> Talk on how to contribute to FOSS and how to join Fedora ( Possibly
using Satya's slides)
How to file bug reports and perhaps a small introduction into how to
test the Fedora desktop would be appropriate. It can be done by anyone
who reads up the relevant wiki pages.
Check if you can have a LiveUSB station and get participants to bring
in their own USB sticks and thus get a LiveUSB of Fedora 10.
The speakers are yet to be decided. All I know is that Debayan,
Ratnadeep, Kishan Goyal and me along with Indranil da are attending the
event. Don't know about Dipanjan or Sarbartha. hey haven't confirmed yet. I
want Indranil da to say something. Will talk to him tomorrow. Suggest
anything, any change or any addition, you want. Remember, the agenda for the
event isn't final yet. Anyone who wants to speak on anything else please let
me know. I will be needing 100 DVDs. Anyone who has it please supply.
Debayan is bringing some, maybe 50. I'll need atleast 50 more and some FEL
DVDs as well. Please reply ASAP.
A large part of the above paragraph is based on 'maybe' and
assumptions. Please do ensure that you have things nailed down
*before* the event and, you *know* whom or what to expect.
Quick note : producing 100 units of DVDs take a bit of time, next time
around it would be a good idea to estimate how best to tackle such a
situation.
