As some of you may have noticed we started a call for papers for (Red Hat) Developer Conference 2012 several months ago. The SFP deadline is pretty close, now, but there is still time to think about it and propose a talk. The deadline is on Dec 23rd. I have a few updates for those…

Fedora 16 Release Party in Brno
When we organized the first Fedora release party in the Czech Republic to celebrate Fedora 15 we didn’t know what to expect. Are there going to any people willing to come?

LinuxCon Europe 2011 in Prague

Red Hat courses at universities – 2011/12
This is the first year when I organize Red Hat courses at local universities. We’ve offered several courses and students’ response was huge as every year. Most courses were full within a few hours. That’s high demand regarding the fact that all courses (except one) are absolutely optional and are not part of the study program,…
