+[[user:jsimon|Joerg Simon]] posted pictures<ref>http://kitall.blogspot.com/2011/11/fudcon-pune-2011-travel-und-event.html</ref> of the event.
-[[User:Johnp|John Palmier]] continued<ref>http://www.j5live.com/2010/05/21/lets-get-this-staight-mpeg-las-and-x264-developers/</ref> the discussion about VP8/WebM and the problem that software patents may *still* pose to supposedly patent-free codecs.

-[[MichelSalim|Michel Salim]] noticed<ref>http://hircus.wordpress.com/2010/05/23/fsfe-and-the-cross-we-bear/</ref> that the Free Software Foundation Europe's logo involves a cross, and compared the FSFE to certain Christian ideals.

-[[User:Kybaker|Kyle Baker]] wants<ref>http://blogs.fedoraproject.org/wp/kybaker/2010/05/21/creative-open-sorcery/</ref> to make Linux a better place for artists and designers. "In order to make Fedora grow in to an OS that looks as good as it functions, we need to better bridge these worlds of design and development. The open source community can not do this alone. We need help from everyone who has colored a pretty picture or dreamt of doing so."
+[[user:kushal|Kushal Das]] posted photos<ref>http://kushaldas.in/2011/11/10/photoset-from-fudcon-pune-2011/</ref> of the event to his blog.
+===Fedora Community===
-[[User:Toshio|Toshio Kuratomi]] discussed<ref>http://anonbadger.wordpress.com/2010/05/22/mailman-fedora-infrastructure-and-involving-non-software-developers-in-open-source-part-i/</ref> some of the issues and bottlenecks involved with getting people involved in the Fedora infrastructure process.
+The release of Fedora 16 has been the main topic of the blogroll recently, and it's fair to say that it's being greeted with open arms by many of the users.
-[[MairinDuffy|Máirín Duffy]] announced<ref>http://mairin.wordpress.com/2010/05/21/its-fedora-election-season/</ref> that Fedora Board elections are open up soon, though by the time you read this, it may already be too late. Included are links to information about each candidate.
+[[user:jjmartinez|Juanjo Martinez]] blogged on his first impressions of F16, calling it an "impressive release"<ref>http://engbblog.wordpress.com/2011/11/08/welcome-fedora-16/</ref>.
-[[SamiWagiaalla|Sami Wagiaalla]] linked<ref>http://wagiaalla.com/2010/05/19/12-tips-to-getting-things-done-in-open-source/</ref> to an article<ref>http://stormyscorner.com/2009/02/12-tips-to-getting-things-done-in-open-source.html</ref> by Stormy Peters titled "12 tips to getting things done in open source". "Most people used to the proprietary software world, with no experience in open source software, are amazed that anything gets done. (And lots gets done in the open source, way more than in most proprietary software companies!) And people new to open source are usually at a loss as to where to start. Often they come with a great idea, tell a couple of people who confirm it’s a great idea, and then … well, and then they don’t know what to do and the great idea fades."
