“O Fisl é um dos mais importantes eventos de software livre do Brasil e foi se tornando ao longo dos anos em um importante centro de discussão e de negócios para o open source”, diz Alejandro Chocolat, country manager da Red Hat Brasil.
A Red Hat, que é uma das patrocinadoras ouro do evento, terá um estande no FISL 10, onde apresentará o novo Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.3 com virtualização, alta disponibilidade e componentes em cluster e a plataforma JBoss Enterprise Middleware, líder global em middleware open source. A Red Hat também apresenta a palestra “Davi ou Golias? Vencendo no mercado disputando de igual para igual com os gigantes”, com Ricardo Bimbo, executivo de Relações com o Governo da Red Hat Brasil.
FUDCon Latam no Fisl 10
O Projeto Fedora, uma colaboração patrocinada pela Red Hat, apoiada e suportada pela comunidade open source mundial, promove pela primeira vez na América Latina a FUDCon – Conferência de Desenvolvedores e Usuários do Fedora.
“O Brasil é um dos países que conta com uma comunidade Fedora das mais ativas do mundo. Atualmente há no País 50 pessoas que colaboram ativamente com o projeto e mais de 6.200 usuários registrados em nosso portal”, diz Rodrigo Padula, Gerente de Relacionamento com a Comunidade para América Latina da Red Hat, e membro do Comitê Diretivo Internacional dos Embaixadores Fedora.
“O Projeto Fedora tem grande importância para a Red Hat. Algumas das funcionalidades do nosso sistema operacional Red Hat Enterprise Linux vieram do Fedora. Além disso, o mundo do software livre também tem se beneficiado de suas inovações. Por essa razão, a Red Hat patrocina e participa consistentemente dos eventos do Projeto Fedora”, diz Chocolat.
A FUDCon terá uma sala exclusiva no Fisl 10 e acontecerá nos dias 25 e 26 de junho de 2009. A Conferência contará com várias palestras, Hackfests e Barcamps, palestras especiais no auditório do Fisl e um estande Fedora que será o ponto de encontro da Comunidade e terá a distribuição de mídias do Fedora 11, lançado em junho 2009.
A FUDCon América Latina terá a participação de líderes e desenvolvedores do Projeto da Argentina, Chile, Paraguai, Venezuela, México e Nicarágua.
