Fedora at Texas Linux Fest

David Duncan and Adam Miller report on Fedora's participation in the inaugural Texas Linux Fest, which took place April 10 in Austin, Texas. Max Spevack was among the speakers at the event, which had nearly 400 registrants. Among the the items at the Fedora table -- staffed by Max Spevack, David Duncan, Scott Collier, Julio Villareal, and Adam Miller -- was the ever=present OLPC XO and a tablet running Fedora 12.

David Duncan's report can be found here.

Adam Miller's report can be found here.
