I should have written it before… But, finally I will write about what we did as Ubuntu-BR at FISL 11 (Free Software International Forum) in July, 2010.

FISL 11 was very good, altough some technical issues. The picture below was taken at the first day, when the stands’ area was closed, yet “under construction”:

On the second day everything was stabilized and many laptops came to our “island” to be installed or to have something configured, like webcams, 3g modems…

Unfortunately many ubunteros couldn’t go, but a very good team was there, most of Sao Paulo regional team of Ubuntu-BR. A special thanks to: Kemel Zaidan, Marcos Amorim (Mosca), Alexsandro Carvalho (Muambeiro), Diego Rodrigues, Thiago Bellini, (Aspira), Kretcheu (and someone else I may forgot the name) and André Gondim, who organized many things and made the main contacts.

Also we had a nice help from Fuctura (a brazilian Canonical partner), who gave us the banner and some gifts to share. Look the pictures below when the gifts was being raffled:

5º Ubuntu Brazil National Meeting

At the last day we had the 5º Ubuntu Brazil National Meeting, where we could talk about our community, how to participate and help. It was cool, because there were people from many places and we talked especially about Ubuntu-BR Regional Teams.

Also it was nice to find/meet some persons we only talked virtually and discover that they really exists… :)

Install Fest

Fortunately today the Linux install is very easy and we don’t need so much install fests, but many machines was installed there (I don’t know the number). Many people liked to see this MacBook Air running Ubuntu:

Lastly, FISL 11 was very good. We met more ubunteros we could imagine. Also many others user groups was there and it was nice to talk with them. Other distros also made a nice job there.

Now, let’s go to the Latinoware, FISL 12, and many others…
