[Ambassadors] Re: Student partnership program. Extending fedora mentor program to students.

[nihed mbarek]

In Tunisia, we have an open source club at all computer science faculty.
It will be more easy to add this club at faculty as fedora point and work

Fedora project can organize a coding game and offers price like OLPC for the
student team that make innovation for fedora Project.
