Fedora Activity Days 1-3 – A ‘Frank (aka Francis) the Fedora pwnie’ report
It appears to me that the weekend in Raleigh went rather well. Even with the difficult weather conditions on Saturday into Sunday morning, I feel the result was a ’smashing’ success! There were so many things being accomplished that I couldn’t keep track of them all. I will try to make a fairly complete list [...]
Events Fedora Activity Day: Day 0
I’ve been looking forward to this weekend ever since Mel Chua suggested it back in mid-December. A Fedora Activity Day to revamp how Fedora manages events, deals with events is something that definitely has been needed for some time. I would say that the Fedora Ambassadors have been doing a bang-up job going from event-to-event [...]

As usual, come from 11:30am-1pm at BetaLoftSLC (357 W 200 S #201) - http://betaloftslc.com

News: Fedora 12 is NOW AVAILABLE!!
I’ve been running Fedora 12 for about a month now (Beta first, Alpha before that). It’s the best Fedora to date.
Everything Just Works(TM).
I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to have a system working with great sound, awesome graphics and very usable GNOME and KDE desktops. I really like the new NetworkManager features and [...]
SLLUG Daytime: RSSCloud, what is it and why should I care?
This month we’re getting back on track with the Salt Lake Linux User Group Daytime meeting at BetaLoft. Our presenter this month is C.R. Oldham and he had this to say about the presentation:
RSSCloud is an open protocol which creates a loosely-coupled Twitter-like network of people and 140 character status messages. In plainer language, it [...]
Fedora FAD @ UTOSC 2009: Fedora-Event-Splash (aka FES)
Even though I’m extremely involved in the organization and management of the Utah Open Source Conference, I’ve got a big project in which I’m interested. It’s the new concept around Fedora-Event-Splash (or FES, pronounced FEZ).
This project was dreamed up by Mr. Ian Weller and he graciously let me tag along to get the thing going. [...]
Wow: UTOSC 2009 is actually 2 weeks away!
I am amazed by the UTOS Core Team and all of the work these awesome volunteers have put in to make the Utah Open Source Conference a success! I just can’t believe it is exactly 2 weeks away from conference time. I am so excited! Just have to finish my bathroom in the next few [...]
FUDCon F13: Toronto, there are too many paths!
At the moment, I’m committed to heading up to the Fedora Users and Developers Conference (FUDCon) this December 5-7. And while it’s promising to be a blast with all of my Fedora friends, great hackfests, sessions and even a project I’ve decided to start working on.
I have been looking at airfare, hotel and other travel [...]
