One of my goals for the year is for us to have localized spins at every 
event that we attend.

This involves:

(1) Getting kickstart files that are approved, have good package sets, 
and are updated for the current Fedora release for each event that we go 
to on the Fedora Events wiki page.  Consistency here is very important. 
I think we should use the work that Rahul has already been doing, and 
simply expand it out to French, German, Spanish, Italian, Brazilian 
Portuguese, etc. etc.

(2) Having a central location where we inventory those spins -- 
critically important.

(3) For the large events, mass-producing LiveCDs with those spins.

(4) Having those spins locally on machines at the events so that we can 
take people's USB keys and turn them into localized Fedora LiveUSBs.
