Flisol this year was organized by
Jose Reyes and
Luis Manuel part of the new organization force in Panama, it was great to see all new generation of Fedora Panama members organizing events. While those are the faces at the events there are others working with them which make the team work.
For a while my activity has been watching new people organizing, and doing the events, which is a really good thing, we need to refresh and recharge, plus we need to see new people in charge, it has been fun looking at
Abdel playing the role of the elderly of the group couching and advising the young new generation of Fedora and Free Software fellows.
Getting back to Flisol, it was good to see new and old community members been part of the conferences and realize how some of the people in the local community has grow as professionals and as person.
