Before FudCon
On Sunday, Luis Bazan and I travel to Cusco for FudCon, Cusco team greet us on the airport, we meet this
guys for the first time, Alex and Cesar, after a couple of months on
IRC meetings and talks. Valentin from Argentina travel
earlier. Alex and Cesar explain us the tv interviews schedule, starting on the most
popular local TV show on Sunday, Valentin did the interview while
they explain us the calendar of interviews on different local
channels.
Next morning was time to go and pick up
Jared and Dennis at the airport while Neville (from Nicaragua
was doing another interview), so arriving earlier allow us to do all tv interviews to promote Fudcon, Fedora and free software, Abdel
and Eduardo did half an hour interview about
Fedora and free software.
But not was only interviews, local team
had a schedule to visit different local universities so we had pretty
busy schedule, we meet teachers and students who show interest about
Linux and Fedora.
While we were not on interviews we work
on Latam region issues.
As day passes we learn that over 1000 people was pre signup for the Fudcon, having a Barcamp with that much people
was something that worried us, so we make plan to address it. The
skill level was another concern so we organize to have some
introductory talks and advance talks.
Soon we have everything ready as organizers Alex and Cesar show us everything was ready.
