We call it "elsewhere" so ...

But I like to see you all growing in Northern Africa. Do you know about a
"bigger" Linux Event in Tunis, Monastir or whereever it makes sense for us
to come and support you local guys?
What do you need from Fedora? Do you need medias? Which one; 32 Bit or 64
Bit? Do you need Live Medias or Installation DvD?

Zied, we would like to support you all others, but don't know how ...
What are your needs?

Regards

Geroldka
