Re: Free software world conference
Hi,
my name is Agustín Benito. I'm the coordinator of the development of mEDUXa,
the Linux Edu distro from the Canary islands. Knut knows me. I'll attend to
the International software conference with some people from my company.
People from Bardinux, another kubuntu based distro from the Canary Islands (a
college from Tenerife) and some developers of SILU, a Ubuntu based distro
from Gran Canaria's college (the other college we have in the Canary Islands)
are also attending, so we can talk about collaborating. The point is that we
should go there with a good idea of waht we are going to talk about so we do
have result after the conference.
Bye
