[Ambassadors] Fedora Release party Tunisia

[Ilyes Gouta]

Hi Nihed,

This is Ilyes Gouta, we met during a previous Ubuntu event in the "Parc 
Technologique El-Ghazala" 2 months ago, do you remember? I asked you if 
you had rawhide DVDs available so that I can update my machine quickly 
:) and talked about webcams, X server and kernel driver. Congratulation 
for the party.

I just wanted to ask you if the FTP server you put in place for the 
party is a available for the Tunisian, fedora-lovin' people or not? Is 
it going to be a permanent server or not? It would be nice to put in 
place a rawhide (or a given release) within Tunisia so that people can 
update their machines quickly, i.e without having to download all the 
packages from distant servers. What do you think about this idea? The 
average Tunisian guy is behind a 256 kbps ADSL which is slow compared to 
the other countries. And having a local mirror is definitely a very good 
idea.

Can you propagate this idea to maximum interested people in your entourage?

Regards,
Ilyes Gouta.
