FUDCon Toronto 2009 OPS Bonus

The Fedora Users and Developers Conference (FUDCon Toronto 2009) is being held at Seneca@York on the first weekend in December. It's a great opportunity to meet, learn about, and join a dynamic open source community. To encourage you to attend FUDCon, the OPS235 and OPS335 professors are offering a bonus assignment.

OPS235

1. Attend FUDCon Toronto 2009 (see the additional info on the Seneca wiki) (minimum: attend the technical sessions on Saturday).
2. Prepare a 3-5 page typed report on Fedora and FUDCon, including:
   1. A description of the Fedora project. (for example: What is the history of the project? What are its foundation principles? Who is involved? How many people participate, and in what ways? How does a team dispersed around the world effectively collaborate? What are the products of the Fedora project, and who uses them?)
   2. Opportunities for involvement in the community. (Who can join the community? How? What roles or teams exist within Fedora? How could you personally participate?)
   3. What are the present and future initiatives of the Fedora project?

• The report must be well-written (proper grammar and spelling) and well-presented (i.e., print it out, place it in a report cover, and include a title page).
• Due date: December 10, 2009.
• This assignment is worth a bonus of up to 5% added to your final grade
