So, I really like this idea. I think it would be a really fun and productive time. I think security is a good topic, but it'll be good to see if anyone else has other ideas. I think we have quite a few things we could cover in the security realm though, like you listed. I'd prefer to stay away from the last week of August/first week of September, because for me (and possibly others -- Ian?) classes will just have started back up. I'd vote for earlier, maybe the end of July? Or the first week or two of August? Beyond that us college-goers will probably be getting ready for the semester. I don't have a lot of preference on location, either of your ideas are about the same distance from me, personally. But yes, I'm very interested in this, I think it would be a lot of fun, and I think we could get a lot done. -re On 06/12/2012 07:03 PM, Kevin Fenzi wrote: > Greetings. > > I've been toying with the idea of a Fedora Infrastructure FAD (Fedora > Activity Day) around getting our security tasks further along/mapped > out, or just done.
