Re: [staff] Debian Install workshop in Brest



Hi everyone

I've also opened [an issue][0] to track the progress on how we advertise
the event.

I am not sure who did it but our event is [registered][1] there already. Was
it you, @Infini?

Infini has [posted the event to the Fediverse][2] for us, too,
already. Thanks!

However, both platforms cater to people who are more likely than average
to be running Linux systems already (or are able to install it
themselves if need be). The bigger mass of people who are affected by
Windows 10 being sunset probably won't come across these websites. Which
is why I like Santiago's idea of reaching out to local media - maybe
there is a section where they advertise local events? Could a French
speaker volunteer to do that? Another option would be to get in touch
with organizations which focus on sustainability whose members might be
interested in our workshop. Do any with local chapters in Brest come to
mind?
