Metadata Update from @jflory7: - Issue priority set to: needs review (was: awaiting triage) - Issue set to the milestone: Fedora Women's Day 2019
Hey @amsharma, I am +1 to this proposal. I am curious though, what parts of Fedora do you think are most interesting to your potential audience? What about Fedora is interesting or relevant for them?
Thanks @jflory7 . As these are college students and mostly interested to know everything about the community. But they always look for some basic practical knowledge of OS and basics of Python from where they can start on their own, this is what we learnt from our past experiences hence this time we will not just talk but will cover hands-on as well. Thanks again :)
+1, from me :tada: Budget is approved, good luck with the event @amsharma :heart:
