Fedora Classroom: Sessions this Weekend

So, we’ve been slacking. Probably the economy. Or maybe it was FUDCon aftermath. Maybe, just maybe, we were in fact, just lazy. I don’t know…..but!!

It’s time again for the Fedora Classroom!!

If you aren’t familiar with the Fedora Classroom IRC sessions, we hold them about once a month in #fedora-classroom in irc.freenode.net.

This month’s session will be just on Saturday from 01:30 to 06:30 UTC (see this guide if you aren’t sure what times those are in your neighborhood). We’ve got some good coverage of how Yum works, a little internationalization and updates on the new features in Fedora 11 (the Alpha just came out today).

I always find these sessions enlightening so come on by and participate!

Cheers,

Herlo

Reminder: Fedora Classroom this Saturday and Sunday

Hi all,

Just a quick reminder that this Saturday and Sunday from 12:00 UTC until 16:00 UTC will be the Fedora Classroom sessions. A few adjustments have been made to make things run smoother, but the sessions are still one hour, now with a 15 minute break in between. If you are unfamiliar with IRC, there’s a helpful guide to get you started.

We still need volunteers to cover 3 sessions on Sunday. If you have something to share, please sign up today. The sessions can be as simple as you wish, the idea being we want to help users understand more about how Fedora works. Maybe a session on the new features in Fedora 10?

Hope to see you all there. I’ll be doing a class on ‘Creating Logical Volumes’ and I’m excited to do it!

Cheers,

Herlo

Fedora Classroom begins November 8

Want to learn a new tool within Fedora? Interested in getting a better hold on your skillset? Want to share with others something you’ve learned? Let us know at the newly formed Fedora Classroom.

As part of the marketing team meeting this week, Kevin Fenzi brought up the Fedora-Classroom. While #fedora serves a good purpose of troubleshooting, there’s more people can learn with some IRC tutorials.

I will be doing the first session on SELinux Basics, and there are other topics to fit those from beginner to advanced Fedora user.

From the email to the fedora-list:

I’m happy to announce that next weekend we will be opening up the #fedora-classroom irc channel (on irc.freenode.net) for some classroom sessions.

These sessions are intended to be short (30min to an hour) sessions on the IRC network where you can learn about a specific Fedora related topic.

Please see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/IRC/Classroom to look at what topics will offered next week, what times they will be offered, suggest topics or sign up to teach a session yourself!

Hope to see lots of folks there.

Cheers,

Herlo
