Fedora 9 Release Party Report
Probably you have already read the great Francesco Crippa report’s. I want to try to write my report in a different mode, to give you another vision about yesterday day.
As Francesco said: it was great! I completely agree with him, it was a great party, with more people than other events we organized time ago. About 40 people, in our city 40 people to a Linux event are a lot.
Poweron
My morning start with some tests on kobold for usb live creation station…


… and preparing GNOME foots to use it as track for people who come to event because the location was a bit hidden from the street…

After that, me and Lucia went to supermarket and bought some snacks and drinks (especially beer, of course
) and we stored it in a secure place:

This good snack is cooked by Lucia, who, with other people, bring something homemade, to party (cakes in particulars, but also short snacks):

12 hour after, we prepare ourself to come to Lodi: here you can see Daniele and Gianluca in the elevator during transport to event location:

yum install fedora9releaseparty.noarch
It’s time to prepare event. All things (bottles, dishes, food, cakes) need to be placed. Room need to be fedorize with posters.


service fedora9releasepartyd start
Me, Francesco e Gianluca start event with a talk about Fedora 9 releases notes and fedora SIG. My photos from here are not so good, so I steal a couple of Francesco’s one

After talk, I take place on Fedora 9 usb creation station:


I love beer…


service fedora9releasepartyd stop
Now it’s time to start to clean the place…This is Stefano…our frend, fedora user from 2 week and LOLUG active member

2:05 AM …

Shutdown
It’s time time to return home, after cleaning location event and terminate event day shutdown


I’m satisfied of this event. A special thanks to Lucia, Francesco, Gianluca, Daniele, Raffaele, Marco and other LOLUG people who help me in event organization. I reach home at 3:10 AM and today at 8 AM I was ready to go to work.
Now I want to sleep
eheheheh
it was a nice party
thanks
just a stupid question: is there a reason for linking a particolar link on my blog or it was just a little mistake?
i think i’ll go bed too..
i’m totally sleeping already, either if i’m still writing here hehehehe

@whitenoise
yes, i wasn’t arguing about that. I was asking myself you you linked an article on my blog (an off-topic one) instead of my home page
anyway that’s not a big deal.. so don’t worry that much, i was just curious
