Wellton Costa, Thiago Mendonça, Samuel Henrique and Paulo Kretcheu installed Debian at laptops from people that went to our table to ask for help. Every year we use to promote a install fest on the tables to all interested people to have GNU/Linux at Campus Party Brasil.
There was also the advertising of
Curitiba is running to host DebConf18, so we did some t-shirts to promote an action called Brasil loves Debian. While Campus Party was happening, we sent some photos to IRC channel #debconf-team.
