[Ambassadors] Sharing Experiences with you !

[Armel Kermorvant]

Good Morning  Ambassadors,

We are glad to share with you all the experiences we had during the
French Install Parties that hapened this month.

- Lille (2006 oct 21st):

    - We were 4 Ambassadors in Lille.
    - Lots of people liked the 3d effect, this is a major point to
promote in Fedora.
    - During the day, we had a lot of discussion with the Fedora Users
and we had positive feedbacks about Fedora product and communauty.
    - One installation, but lot of questions arround Fedora.
    - On the MrTom's Blog, some pictures are available

    - It was the 1st real adventure for some Fedora Ambassadors.
    - We prepared some presentions :
          - Fedora Project : MrTom

    - We made some installations of Fedora Core 6 on Desktops and
Notebook products.

The keys elements for the presentation and Fedora promotion are :
     - 3D Desktop Effects (All Fedora users and all people like it).
     - Fedora Project and Fedora Community, lot of people need a clear
picture about Fedora and RedHat, the Ambassadors clarify this point.
     - The new printer installation software (More user friendly and
easier for the configuration).
     - Ambassadors present during the day and motivate the user to test
and use Fedora.

Next step for the Fedora French Team :
     - Prepare the major Open Source Show in Paris.
     - 30 January to 01 February LINUX SOLUTION - CNIT - PARIS - La
Defense (http://www.solutionslinux.fr/fr/index.php - the English page is
not available at the moment).
     - In the same place we have the major Open Source actors.
     - We are preparing this event in collaboration with Parinux (Active
Linux User Group).
     - I'm pretty sure the Fedora US and Worldwide Team support us on
this project.
