Hello.

Hello Alessio,

I'm sorry I didn't get back to you before. I missed the e-mail somehow.

Please give me some advice. Let's say I'm part of a Linux User Group. Let's say we are thinking to organize an Arduino Day. Let's suppose I would like to "advertise" Fedora in this context. Please take into account that more than building some projects with Arduino, I'm not a robotics expert, at all. What are the possible talking points about Fedora Robotics Spin in an event like that?

Well, the biggest selling point of course is that there is a spin that users can download and get started with immediately:

The new modularity system that Fedora is using also makes it easy for folks to use COPRs, and there's one on ROS here already:

We're still looking at including more software. We'd be thrilled if some of the robotics/electronic enthusiasts would give us feedback on the Spin, and if they'd like to help us include more software, that would be even better! :)
