- Helped in FLISOL (the biggest install fest in Latin America)
- Went to conferences along the country with my Ubuntu banner and put stands there with the ubuntu-ar guys to spread the word and meet great new people.
- Convinced lots of people (20 of them in my company) and a couple of other small companies to migrate to Ubuntu and free software.
- I gave a free 4 hours linux course for people that want to learn about Ubuntu and I'm planning to do that again.
I would like to

Try to make the public administration in Argentina to migrate to free software. (that's a hard one, I know) BR
Meet new people as free and open-minded as me. BR
