Floss Pa, group meets once a month on an activity call floss parking, this month we meet at New York Bagels Coffe, this is an unformal event, and there is no specific topics, however this time we had some topics on the agenda, Flisol, SOPA and all other freedom restriction initiatives, the first developing project for floss-pa community was part of the agenda.
On Flisol we share previous experiences organizing Flisol Panama, this year Panama city leader will be one of our own Abdel "Potty" Martinez.
SOPA, PIPA and ACTA was a topic that has rise lots of concerns, and patents trolls.
Floss-pa first software project took more time on the talk, David Narvaez will lead the group and you will soon start reading more details about it, as we organize and start coding, but some code samples are already been done.
It also was an opportunity to meet face to face to python community, that will be starting small project on their own.
