LiberaMENTE
What about LiberaMente? Yet another Linux conference 
Fedora booth was staged with lot of cool stuff: a OLPC, an Asus EeePC, some live cd-roms, t-shirts, hats, posters, thin clients (thanks to Luca) and (awesome) the “Fedora USB pen self-service kiosk”!
The tool to build usb live pen on demand was a great success! Lot of people wanted to put their usb pens into the kiosk and see what happens!
But this time there were also some important news! First of all: Fedora Italian Community meeting.
For the first time, five Fedora Ambassadors meet each other into the real world. We discussed about next Italian events (release parties, for instance), budgets management and Fedora EMEA interactions. Italian Fedora Ambassadors are now more cohesive and integrated. Wonderful start to make good work for the future!
Other important thing: we’ve got to keep our eye on Fedora Account System to discover if some people we’ve met are joined Fedora Project. I think at least one guy from Florance is very interested to be Fedora contributor!
So, see you at Fedora 9 release party!
Luca, Andrea, Francesco, Gianluca and me. Fedora Ambassadors

Hey Francesco, nice pics/update and a cool example for other local groups to follow!
A Q: How expensive was it to produce the swag?
And an observation: I couldn’t find a “Contact me” button or your email address on your website. :/

You are right! I’ve put some “social networking” gadgets, but I haven’t put my email address…
Here you are:
fcrippa [_AT_] byte-code [_DOT_] com
I’ll send you some information about swag and event cost (this event was actually zero cost… we used left-over stuff from previous events)
Thanks for your feedback Dimitris!

Well done guys!
Looks like you put together an awesome booth. Did you ever get the final numbers of how many people attended the event? I’d be interested in hearing that.

Hi,
can you please provide the original graphics files that you used to print “Fedora Live USB creation station” poster.
Have you edited it already for Fedora 9?
Cheers from Croatia,
Valent.
