On Flisol official Date April 23 we celebrated it at the Universidad Interamericana de Panama  thanks for hosting it. While we did not have the normal attendance for this event  we have really interested crowd. Must interesting part of the crowd was to have 2 people interested on becoming Fedora packagers, both of them starting working to archive that task. Another interesting development was to meet a group of students who want to contribute with some software development and design for our local group Floss-pa, plus others who  wanted to contribute on organization and learn more about free software.

Special thanks to Gonzalo Nina who soon will become a packager and full Fedora Panama contributor.

So it was a good event with many things to learn and do.

Thanks to the people who work to make it possible and we hope to have new contributors doing some task on Fedora.
