+<title>Venezuela: FliSoL 2008</title>
+<body>
+
+<p>
+On Saturday April 26th, <uri
+link="http://www.installfest.info/FLISOL2008">FLISoL 2008</uri>, Latin America's
+largest Free Software promotional and installfest ended, having taken place more
+or less simultaneously throughout Latin America. In Venezuela, it was hosted in
+the capital city Caracas and other cities such as Barquisimeto, Cumaná, Los
+Teques, Maracaibo, Mérida, San Cristóbal and Valencia.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+As well as being a free-for-all, catch-as-catch-can multiple distro installfest
+and promotion event, it also featured interesting talks on a wide variety of
+subjects, including clusters, web development frameworks, security, VOIP and the
+Gimp, among others.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+In Caracas, the event was hosted at the <uri
+link="http://ve.iseit.net/">ISEIT</uri>, where a small group of enthusiastic
+Gentoo users and devs, amongst which were angvp, alberkmann, neurogeek,
+sebasmagri, <mail link="ricmm"/> and <mail link="chiguire"/>, gathered to
+expound upon the multiple virtues of everyone's favourite meta-distro to all
+comers, live as well as on irc (#gentoo-ve on irc.freenode.net), while at the
+same time racing to complete installs on wide variety of machines,
+troubleshooting hardware, handing out Gentoo minimal install and LiveCDs right,
+left and centre and even having time to demonstrate Frets on Fire on Gentoo. A
+few Gentoo lappies sported highly tweaked e17 desktops, laden with eye candy
+that caught everyone's attention.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+In Mérida, Gentoo LiveCDs were hot items too, as was the demonstration of games
+running on Gentoo. Many Gentoo enthusiasts were also reported at the Maracaibo
+event.
