Hi people,

My name is Nikole right now I'm living in Costa Rica and I had been involved in Central America Free Software  SLCA http://softwarelibre.ca/

Amazing to bring a Minidebconf in Mexico, of this form many people can be part of a Minidebconf.

We need to talk in our region in all the events during the year with women because we need to invite or ensure participation in a Minidebconf in Mexico. It is important to retort knowledge to Central America.

I'm so happy because Estrella continues talking about the posibility to do a Minidebconf in Mexico.

Is so exciting do a Minidebcof between Mexico and Central America.

I expect participate in the organization and in the Minidebconf in our region.

Best

 Hola Estrella y gente,

Sería bonito tener un MiniDebConf en México así todas las chicas en Centroamerica interesadas podamos participar.

Claramente necesitamos hablar con las chicas en los espacios que tenemos durante el año para asegurar la participación y poder replicar los conocimientos del Minidebconf en nuestros países.

Me alegra mucho que Estrella tenga la propuesta y que podamos entre centroamerica y México realizar un Minidebconf.

Estaría chido un Minidebconf y que bueno poder aportar a la organización y a participar.

Saludes
