=== Network Access ===
=== Network Access ===


Virginia Tech is a major state university with over 30,000 students and staff, so bandwidth should not be an issue, but portable wifi devices may be handy. Bring them if you have them.
Virginia Tech operates a campus-wide 802.11g network, with 802.11a and 802.11n also supported in some areas.  '''(802.11b-only devices will not work!)'''  You will need to register for a guest wireless account before arriving (see below).


There is also wireless available at the [[#Lodging | hotel]].  Refer to the information provided by your hotel for details.
There is also wireless ethernet available at the [[#Lodging | hotel]].  Refer to the information provided by your hotel for details.


Most cell service providers have poor coverage inside the academic buildings. Verizon has the strongest cell coverage out of all the major providers.
The four major mobile phone providers (AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon) have coverage in Blacksburg, but most of them have poor coverage inside buildings on campus. Of the four, Verizon has the best coverage.  Prepaid mobile phones are available at several businesses on University City Boulevard, within walking distance of the hotel.

Pre-registration

Instructions
Please add your name to the list if you will attend. Also, please indicate the following:
  • Put an X in the $$$ column if you need funding to attend, and visit the FUDCon ticket tracker to make a funding request. We have a limited budget and will work hard to fund as many people as possible. We'll use these answers to help figure out budgeting for the event. We are making arrangements for attendees from other geographic regions to encourage specific initiatives such as future FUDCon events, but preference may otherwise be given to people in North America.
  • Put a V in the Veg column if you would like vegetarian fare for any meals that we provide during the event. If you prefer vegan fare, please mark that column VV. We will do our best to make sure everyone is accommodated! Note: "Hell No" and similar statements are offensive to some and should not be included in this column.
  • Put your T-shirt size in the Size column, so we can have an idea about what sizes to have available. Only Unisex (Mens Sizes will be ordered)
  • Roomsharing:
    1. If you want or need to share a room, mark yes in the "Roomshare?" column.
    2. Once you have a roommate, both of you should mark your roommate's name in the block as well.
    3. If you need a roommate, look for someone with just a yes in the column, and contact them via email. If you encounter any problems, let the organizers know.
Use the Comments section for anything else you think organizers need to know, or to offer or ask for space or rides.

Introduction to Fedora QA Overview on what the QA team and its various subgroups do from the beginning of the development of a new release to its EOL. (Not including AutoQA.) Beginner Sandro "red" Mathys
Creating FUDCon booklets, or "Ian's raptor-proofing talk" A quick overview on tips and tricks I've learned in creating information booklets for FUDCon Tempe and Blacksburg, and a demonstration of the tools involved and some best practices in desktop publishing. Intermediate Ian Weller
Systems Management with Matahari In this talk Russell will introduce the Matahari project, an interface for system management APIs of all kinds. Russell will discuss the architecture of the Matahari ecosystem and how the use of AMQP as a transport layer allows it to scale to large collections of servers in the Cloud. Russell will also describe the ways in which developers and system administrators can get involved in the Matahari ecosystem: by creating agents to provide access to existing APIs through Matahari; by creating their own APIs; by writing their own clients to interact with agents; and by interacting through a command line shell or script. Advanced Russell Bryant
Fedora and the Raspberry Pi The Raspberry Pi is a $25-35 computer aimed at provoking curiosity about computers and programming in the same way that BBC Micros, ZX-80/81s, Commodore 64s, Atari 400/800s, and Apple ][s did in the 80's. This computer features an ARM11 core and a ridiculously strong GPU with HD output, and it runs Fedora! Any Chris Tyler
Introduction to Gluster Jeff Darcy and John Mark Walker will lead the audience on a tour of GlusterFS: it's architecture, origins and community. Beginner Jeff Darcy & [[User:Johnmark|John Mark Walker] & ]Sid Wilroy
Using Fedora to make logos, t-shirts, stickers, and other fun swag You've got an awesome software project or community but you've got no swag! Oh nos, however will you get people to hang out at your booth at the latest conference? Do you (*gulp*) need the Adobe Suite and a Mac....? No way!! Everything you need is in Fedora! We'll walk through some basic logo creation techniques in Inkscape. Then, using both Inkscape and Scribus, we'll create a basic, print-ready circular design that you could use for buttons or stickers. Finally, we'll create an affordable, print-ready T-shirt design again using Inkscape and Scribus. Throughout, we'll go over how to create CMYK rather than RBG designs so your Fedora blue won't run purple! Beginner Máirín Duffy
Fedora Inspire: A virtual conference While we are all lucky to make it to FUDcon, there are many FUDcon contributors around the world who have not had the opportunity to come even though they would love to be here. Would it be cool to have a week-long TED-like conference, run on Fedora Planet, where every day of the event a new 15-minute video is posted from someone doing inspirational work in or with Fedora? How is Fedora being used in schools, to build robots, to create awesome music? Let's find out! If you would like to help brainstorm how we could make this happen and pitch in to make it happen, please come! Any Máirín Duffy
Katello: A Sysadmin's Fortress Katello is here to help you take control of your software and your systems in an easy-to-use and scalable manner. Focusing on the software lifecycle, you can organize that content into repositories that are easily searchable, filtered, manipulated and controlled in a locked-down container called an Environment. Intermediate Justin Sherrill
Making Fedora Package Maintenance Easier Come check out the unveiling of new tools for Fedora package maintainers designed and developed by the Fedora engineering team! We'll demo our staging instance and let you log in and kick the tires. Give us any feedback or wishlist items you have to make working with Fedora packages easier! Intermediate to Advanced Tom Callaway
FOSS@RIT: Academic and Student Engagement Come meet the students and staff from "The FOSSBox" at Rochester Institute of Technology. We will give a brief overview of engagement strategies for working with our students inside and outside of the classroom, in both sponsored and volunteer capacities. Our students will demo some of their projects they have been working on such as The RIT Remixerator, and a handful of Educational Games developed on the XO laptops. Any Remy DeCausemaker
Pulp: Juicy Software Repository Management The Pulp team is finishing up testing of version 1.0, bringing repository and consumer management to your infrastructure. This talk will cover an overview of the 1.0 features and a look at the new architecture of 2.0. Pulp version 2.0 will support non-RPM content in the form of user-defined content types, including modeling relationships between content units. Leverage existing Pulp features such as consumer management, scheduling, concurrency, and throttling to write your own plugins to customize content import and publishing for your needs. Intermediate Jay Dobies
