Fedora 12 Release Party, Valencia (ES)

Everything went better than expected (seven attendees!).

Most of the people came from the Linux associations and LUGs of the city (there are 2 public universities in the area, plus some private), and I tried to advocate Fedora, but all of them are long time Linux users (even a Gentoo user in the house!). The Linux associations/LUGs in Valencia are quite dormant (one of the attendees used the word dead), so I think the meeting was a big success!

We had a nice time talking about free software, programming languages, and (to some extent) the new features of Fedora (in the photo, because we were local logged users, we didn’t have to identify us to get a signed beer from a licensed repository heh, nice Fedora already fixed this).

The seventh attendee arrived a little late, but we had a big surprise because actually he was a Fedora user! I think we (the two only Fedora users in the party) deserve a photo:

So long, and thanks for all the fish.
