Re: Ohio Linuxfest 2011

 

If someone wants to get down on some Python + GTK love, we could have
a self-serve station, where you can take a blank CD we have, throw it
in a machine, click the distro and wait for the burn, then draw it
out.

It would be a cool way of getting people to stay and talk about Ubuntu
rather then take a CD and screw off.
