EN_US:

Live Blue group is going to the 10th Brazilian International Free Software Forum (FISL 10), which will be held in Porto Alegre – Brazil from June 24th – June 27th.

Yah, my dears, FISL will take place in the middle of the year, just when occurs in our state one of the biggest parties of the world: the festival of São João (Saint John – and that is bigger than Brazilian carnival in some states).

But are we going to it ? Are we going to stay here, where it’s warm (even with the rain), eating our corn-based food, our peanut-candy (beloved, with the name of kid-foot), our bonfires and such ?

Of course not!

We will be flying more than 1000 miles just to the biggest FLOSS meeting in the South America. But we will bring a little of the warm with us, to the coldness of the south (yah, it will be winter there). Happly it was not that time that they keep us away from the chill of Porto Alegre since, even being a considerable amount of flight time and distance, the event will count with the presence of many Baianos, and we have already 10 members of the Live Blue team confirmed, and they are:

sandro tomaz vito

Sandro Andrade, Tomaz Canabrava, Vito Chiarella

rodrigosouto luizromario viniciusazevedo

Rodrigo Souto, Luis Romário, Vinicius Azevedo

And a bunch of others that I don’t have the picture to expose them: Adewale Andrade, Cibele Vasconcelos, Caio Tiago Oliveira, Nancí Bonfim, João Paulo Rabelo; and a few that didn’t confirmed yet, depending of “bigger forces” to confirm it or not.

During the event, we will have a stand for the KDE/Live Blue team (apparently, we will be hosting a future KDE event). If you are Brazilian, baiano, nordestino, or just have the guts to be there, come with us. You will receive a warm welcome.

… and wattayaknow, we can also start some maracatú and forró there 😉

PT_BR:

O 10o Fórum Internacional de Software Livre ocorre de 24 a 27 de junho
de 2009, em Porto Alegre. Sim, meus caros, FISL em pleno São João. E muitos poderiam achar que isso seria um impedimento para a presença da maioria dos nordestinos, afinal temos até feriados regionais nessa época e festas nos interiores com direito a pipoca, amendoim, milho, fogueiras e fogos.

Mas felizmente não foi dessa vez que nos arrancaram do friozinho de Porto Alegre, pois mesmo sendo a uma distância considerável da nossa terrinha, o evento vai contar com a presença de muitos baianos e até agora já temos, dentre esses, 10 membros do Live Blue confirmados. São eles: Sandro Andrade, Tomaz Canabrava, Vito Chiarella, Rodrigo Souto, Adewale Andrade, Cibele Vasconcelos, Luis Romário, Caio Tiago Oliveira, Nancí Bonfim e João Paulo Rabelo; fora os que ainda estão na dúvida, dependendo de “forças maiores” para confirmarem sua presença ou não.

No âmbito do evento contaremos com um estande para o pessoal do Live Blue. Seja você baiano, nordestino, brasileiro, ou nenhum desses, basta que se interesse por software livre e tenha vontade de ir que você pode ter a certeza de que será muito bem vindo. Quem sabe tocamos até um forrozinho por lá?!
