Merry Christmas to all community. We wish you all the best to you and your families.

A small team of the Greek openSUSE community decided to go on a Christmas roadtrip. So we drove about 200km to join the teachers of The Educational Computer Association of Florina at their event at the center square of the city. The event had to do with promoting FOSS at school and in general. Local elementary teacher Mr Ioannis Kaskamanidis, asked his students to join the booth and be the example of the results of FOSS in education. Ioannis, took the advantage that the educational system provides, and every student of his class has one XO. We also met a local doctor, Dr Evangelos Tsoukas, who translated and supports an open source software called openEMR for his job. We discuss with him the openSUSE Medical distro. Above all, we were happy that we could inform the locals for the advantage of FOSS and openSUSE.

Althought it was a tiring trip for us We did our job and we had fun!!!
