Ubuntu-BR and FISL, paid off!
Warning: It’s just a brief report!
Last week all brazilians nerds, geeks and hackers migrated for Porto Alegre-RS-Brazil during 4 days!
It was the biggest FLOSS conference at Brazil and Latin America, FISL!
Of course Ubuntu Brazil was there! In the first time on the history, we get so many brazilian ubuntu members together, it was awesome! Inside the fisl agenda we get our 4th Brazilian ubuntu users conference, where I, Ursula and Fábio talked Ubuntu-BR community, launchpad and translations. Our stand was crowded all the time by users asking for help and sometimes for CDs and another gifts 
Does anyone know who is the man in the picture bellow?
He is Lula the President of Brazil! Yes buddies, now the president knows about Ubuntu, Ubuntu-BR and he has a ubuntu-br t-shirt! Click in the picture to watch the video.
One think that made me really suprised was some people ask about what is ubuntu, I had no idea that still people who doesn’t know ubuntu(of course I’m talking about people who studies tecnologies). It made me think a lot about how much work we have to do!
So I’d like to say thanks for all Brazilian Ubuntu guys: André Gondim, Duda Nogueira, Fábio Nogueira, Ricardo Cropalato, Laudeci, Jonh Wendell…
and the canonical staff: Adilson, Fábio Filho and Ursula Junque.
Now is work for Latinoware!

I’d love to know what he is saying in the Video, can you translate it at all? I know he says something about Microsoft at the end and everyone seems very happy about it.

Hi Martin,
The part where the word Microsoft is spoken, he said in a free translation: “We had to choose: go to the kitchen and make what we want to eat, or we would eat what Microsoft would like to sell to us. But we keep the idea of freedon.”
There is the full transcription in portuguese and spanish, as soon as done the english translation I will post it here.
