This is great feedback, and seems to show that the plan is working. :)
Do you think this is something about the LinuxCon EU audience in
specific? Should we focus more Server efforts there next year? Are
there other conferences where that would likely be the case? Was there
any specific feedback that would be helpful to bring back to the Server
WG?
It has been really interested to me too. There are many events where we
can find more *technical* people there.
That's also why I think we really need Server media to distribute in this
such a kind of events.
Fedora.next makes more good effects now and ambassadors need to learn
more to share it more to the world.
Kind regards,
