There is an Open Source user group in Cuba called GUTL (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;gutl.jovenclub.cu&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;gutl.jovenclub.cu&#x2F;</a>). I met one of their members at the last Python Unconference in Hamburg.<p>They want to organize a tech conference in Cuba, the idea being that for the exchange of knowledge it is easier to bring foreigners to Cuba than for Cubans to go to international conferences.
