Hi all, Linux Australia has again secured a booth at the NSW Education Expo. This event attracts over 9000 attendees including parents, teachers and students to find out about all things to do with education. Last year we were there and we spoke to loads of people, getting information about FOSS through to the education sector. This year we are planning some extra activities for kids K-12 to encourage them to actually use FOSS and get excited about it.
Anyway, this will be on the 24-25th June, details on their website (http://www.edexpo.info/) and we are looking for people to help out :) We need people to: - give out information and talk to people - wear a penguin suit. The one at CeBIT was a hit :) - help set up and pull down the booth (this only takes about 30 mins each) We also need some stuff to give away and show off. I have some Ubuntu CDs (Feisty) and would appreciate anything else people can get to me. We will be making the badges, hopefully getting the penguins sponsored, printing the certificates, and getting the CDs stamped, again hopefully by a sponsor. Please email me offline if you are interested in getting involved. It will be loads of fun :) Cheers, Pia -- Linux Australia http://linux.org.au/ "The future is here.
