Fedora Free Media

***glennzo*** · #1 17th September 2010, 07:45 PM

Is anyone here a member of the Fedora Free Media program? I've just joined but there is one thing that is not clear to me and I wonder if someone here may be able to elaborate.

Never mind. I figured it out.

As an Admin, you should know that a "Never mind, figured it out," is a bad thing to do.

What was the problem, and how did you solve it?

Sigh, these fishermen......

Have I just been spanked

The problem was that I didn't understand this

Probably because I didn't read it 73 times. Once I re-read it I understood the above concept. I get a free personal wiki page that I needed to update

Heh--I wouldn't have the nerve. (To spank).

That's nice, though,you have your own Fedora page. You're now a star.

Don't know about being a star. I think anyone can have their own page. All you need to do is sign up. I think you get an @fedoraproject e-mail address too. Not sure about that though.

Is having your email address shown on this such a good idea? I'd suggest removing it before the spam guys get a hold of it.

No Kurt. You are 100% correct. Thank you. Corrections made. Does this

look better?

That would probably work, but you know, gmail is so well known that I'd just give mine as kurtdriver at google's email. I can't imagine who wouldn't understand that. I say make it tough for them. I put an address on a web page in 1998 and still get spam, even though I haven't replied to an email there in over ten years.

Also wondering if anyone here is involved with the Fedora Free Media program? I've just accepted my first tickets, 4 people within the USA.
