About

Fedora Day Paraná is an event to promote Fedora and it's related projects, which will take place in Paraná, Entre Ríos, Argentina. Paraná is near Santa Fé (capital of Santa Fé province) and Oro Verde (a small town close to Paraná). The 3 cities have universities that dictate careers in computer / systems / electronics / technology. We want to use that the local FLOSS communities are small and with little activity, to make an event that attracts people from the 3 cities (and perhaps more).

Paraná is the capital of Entre Rios province. It is located in the center-east of the country, on the left bank of the Paraná River, and have a population of 247,000 inhabitants, according to definitive data from the 2010 census.
