Why is Fedora attending SeaGL 2018?
TBD
What is the focus of the event?
TBD
How does our attendance at this event build users or contributors to specific Fedora solutions - and why are those particular solutions important?
Attending events such as SeaGL allows students and instructors to see Fedora as a viable platform to teach and learn with. Students are the next generation of developers. If Open Source operating systems are to survive, students need to see their value. We go to events like SeaGL to communicate the value of the Fedora Project to the next generation.
How does our attendance at this event build users or contributors to the Fedora platform overall.
As we expose new students to the Fedora Project, we have high hopes that a few will join. All we can do is provide them with the information they are looking for and point them in the right direction. The key is making contact with people who are searching for something to do. Students are encouraged to join the Fedora Project to, quite frankly, pad their resumes.
Young people just joining the workforce need to have a little bit of padding in the volunteer portion of their resumes. As we attend SeaGL we are providing potential opportunities to volunteer time, energy and knowledge. As they volunteer they will get to rub shoulders with some of the most innovative people in the Open Source community.
Measured Success
Success can only be measured by people volunteering as a result of meeting one of us at events like SeaGL. If we decide against attending such events, we will be relying on individual contact as opposed to mass exposure to the future developers of the world.
