Gentoo Events
1.
Project Description
The Gentoo Events project ("events") is the official Gentoo project for
coordinating Gentoo's presence at various events hosted by the Free Software
Community. This includes trade shows and developer meetings. By providing a
single project to attempt to coordinate the Gentoo presence at events, it is
hoped that Gentoo will present a more uniform and informed showing.
2.
Project Goals
The goal of the Gentoo Events project is to coordinate the Gentoo presence at
these events. This includes things such as procuring hardware, assisting
developers in their travel and accomodations needs, obtaining printed press
materials and release media, obtaining posters and flyers, and generally
helping to ensure that our involvement in the event is a positive one that puts
Gentoo in a good light, as well as making sure we have fun doing it.
