Event Description
LET's USE LINUX is the phrase we use this year to promote the use of GNOME and Fedora.

During the GNOME PERU FEST 2014 we are going to present GNOME 3.10 and Fedora 21, Ubuntu and Archlinux as Linux projects. This is going to be divided in two parts: during the morning we are going to present Enterprise Linux alternatives. Then, if you are interested in being a new user of Linux, during the afternoon we are going to install Linux on attendances'laptops. Meanwhile, attendances can listen to contributors testimonies so they can explain how to contribute with Linux projects. Specialists of IBM are going to guide during the installations, and members of GNOME around the world were invited to speak.

You can see pictures of the event we have for GNOME previous event.
