Hi Ambassador

I am working on Fedora Project Argentina, since January, I am ambassador
since 2005.

Our first target is to re create linux community in argentina around
Universities. We are starting our speechs and spread next april 13th in 3
universities, we will be part of FLISOL in buenos aires (the latinamerican
install fest) and i am going to FISL (POA Brazil) this week to give some
talk and unite efforts with Fedora Project Brazil.

Even our work is slow and "step by step" we are becoming in the first
Linux community university oriented, focused in results (non politics, no
GNU fanatism, OSI oriented work)

Send u greetings from Buenos Aires
