> his next conference
> 16:00 - Fight Internet censorship with Tor, by Michael Scherer
> (Mandriva contributor)
>  => Michael decided to cancel his talk as the public was interacting
> very well with Thomas about the previous session

> 15:30 - Linux administration, by me

> Also, members of the JeuxLinux.fr team (a french LUG dedicated to
> video games on Linux) was present for both days, and were doing some
> kind of a permanent "come and play with us" session.
>
> All the conferences were filmed, and we hope to be able to distribute
> the videos (in french unfortunately for most of you on this list)
> shortly and obviously under a free content license.
>
> ----------
>
> All in all, the event ran pretty well (even if very tiring :). We had
> around 100 visitors (I honestly didn't count, but that should be an
> accurate estimation), and we helped several people install Fedora or
> solve the problems they were having.
>
> We distributed lots of the Fedora 12 CDs we had made, sold t-shirts
> and live USBs (Fedora branded USB sticks). We also printed a
> translated version of the one page release notes that visitors seemed
> to appreciate pretty much.
>
> Cédric, a member of the Fedora-Fr community that we had never heard of
> before stepped up to join us and be our reporter to cover the event as
> a film report with hand-held camera. He interviewed people, moved
> around the event and filmed backstage. We hope to have the finished
> movie pretty soon. This was a very nice surprise to us, and we hope he
> will continue to participate in Fedora (at least we want to encourage
> him :).
>
> Of course, the event wouldn't have been such a success without the
> participation of all the attendees that I didn't already mention
> above:
> - Armel Kermorvant (Fedora ambassador and president of the Fedora-Fr NPO)
> - Pierre-Yves Chibon (Fedora ambassador and packager, Fedora-Fr.org
> administrator and vice-president of the Fedora-Fr NPO)
> - Carlos Vassalo (Fedora ambassador, vice-treasurer of the Fedora-Fr
> NPO and human front-end to the LiveUSB-Creator tool :)
> - Nicolas Chauvet (Fedora ambassador, rock-star packager and board
> member of the Fedora-Fr NPO)
> - Maxime Carron (Fedora ambassador and secretary of the Fedora-Fr NPO)
> - Xavier Lamien (member of the Fedora Packaging Committee and the
> Fedora Infrastructure team)
> - Mohamed El Morabity (Fedora ambassador and Fedora-Fr.org ubiquitous
> user support)
> - Emmanuel Seyman, Paul Marques-Mota and Sabine Herbin (board members
> of the Parisian LUG)
> - Olivier Fraysse (board member of the Ubuntu-Fr NPO) who really
> helped us rounding the edges related to the logistics with the Cité
> des Sciences
> - and all the others who I inevitably forgot as my memory left me
> along with my mental sanity somewhere around 4:00 am on Sunday :)
>
> We're already eagerly looking forward to organizing the next one.

> Best regards,

Invidia..... molta invidia... questo però, oltre a dimostrarci che
dovremmo avere maggior rapporto dai Lug, ci fa notare anche la
differenza con la comunità Francese, che già in ambiente Ubuntu aveva
fatto girare la testa alla comunità italiana, realizzando un evento da
oltre 4000 persone.

Paese diverso, presupposti diversi, lug diversi... ma comunque molta invidia.
