FOSS events are great way to meet new and

celebrate FOSS and learn a few things as well and it hardly
matters that where and who organizes it. Its a plus point though,
if the people who organize FOSS events are actually FOSS
developers or enthusiasts .
Unless the wrinkles in the FOS software are ironed out, promotional
events will not achieve their required goals. For eg. Ubuntu was
one software that brought people closer to Debian. With the new
unstable versions of Ubuntu 'stable', users will get hassled by it.
Accounting, Multi-Media, CAD are still grey areas that require
attention.
