Ambassador Wear - APAC focused

[Buddhike Kurera]

Hi,

APAC ambassadors have decided to prepare an official wear to represent events.

Type : Polo Tshirt with collar
Color : Related with Fedora blue

I handle this project and I am seeking proposals towards the idea.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Bckurera/APAC-shirts

Please refer to the wiki, and give some love too.

How about using the same as the one we use in EMEA?
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/PoloShirt

It is pretty nice and not EMEA specific, so I guess it would be a good
fit for APAC as well.

Unless you feel the need for differentiating APAC, but I fail to see why
that would be a good idea.

Cheers,

I too like that design<we ll print APAC Ambassadors>, we can do it
some more colors like white and black.
We ll discuss about that.

Frankly speaking I dislike "APAC Ambassador". We are *Fedora*
Ambassadors. Although we are located in a certain area, we can act as
ambassador world wide.

> From time to time we exchange ambassadors, people from Europe fly over
to NA or APAC and we also have people from there joining us. Therefor I

Just my 2¢.

Christoph

I think a logo is not just a sign for recognition but also a sign of
attribution. I believe all of us we should be recognized as a global
Fedora community and also give attribution to it. And that's a very
serious matter.

Correct localization with talks from local Ambassadors, leaflets,
websites etc. can prove the existence of every regional community of
Fedora. People know we are local but if we are not it's not a problem
because we are Fedora.

Yes i see APAC Am. is some odd to have on the wear.
Thanks for showing me the hint
bow too all people.
How ever if anyone deliberately need it, we ll go to for it
:)
""Fedora Ambassadors"" are fine if needed we can add APAC Region, but
it think
it is not needed.
Open for ideas . . .

There is this option, too:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/ButtonUp

I don't know how you feel about polos -- I have one, but I hate wearing it
(as I am already fat, it makes me look even moreso) -- but I think if folks
like the button up shirt option, they could opt for it.

I go a bit further and dislike them even saying Ambassadors on them.
Something appeals to me about producing things that can be used by a
much broader audience. At the same time I do subscribe to the "those
making them decide what goes on them" philosophy.

Can only speak for myself here with two legs in fedora (packager and now
ambassador). And for me it's a good thing the Fedora ambassador polo
shirt says ambassador. It reminds ourself and the environment around us
that we know what Fedora stands for and is happy to talk about it. This
is something practically not required at all from the other contributor
roles. If it did not say ambassador I would probably not have bought the
Polo Shirt and instead opted for the cheaper printed t-shirt.

This obviously do not exclude the idea of having similar neutral wear
like the Fedora T-shirt, pins, pens, stickers, DVDs, etc etc.

Hi,

Just "Fedora Ambassadors" will be fine. When you wear it in APAC you are
APAC ambassadors, when you wear in EMEA you are EMEA ambassadors (applicable
to all other regions). We are all Fedora Ambassadors. :)

BTW, LCA 2011 [1] will be held in January 2011. We are looking for wear
quite in a hurry. How many stock we have at the moment?

kaio

I agree with that.

As there some design ideas in the air. I am a bit far to be able to
obtain clothes produced by EMEA or NA teams, so I did some custom made
polo in a local shop.
I order fedora logo on top of the heart, "Fedora Ambassador" on right
sleeve, and "Nicaragua" on the left sleeve. When I came with this
idea, I was not thinking on setting a region on my own, but to show
that anybody from everywhere can contribute.
The only downside that I see in this approach is that will be hard to
get bulk price with custom labels.

best regards

+1

While *dislike* might be a strong word but I do support what Christoph
is saying. Let us not divide it on the basis of region. We all are
Fedora Ambassadors so let it be. Also a same design throughout the
globe will be good to show off the strength we have as one, united
community.

Seriously, this list is becoming awfully political. It isn't about APAC
vs, EMEA etc.. Each region has it's own budget, with usually a good
bunch of people in each region coming up with ideas. I'm seriously
getting sick and tired of people bitching and trying to create perceived
problems. Somebody asked for help, advice and ideas. That is all. The
last two weeks, I have seriously started contemplating unsubscribing
from this list. So can we please stick to friendly ambassador business
and cut all the crap bickering and negativity out ?

Thank you.
Tristan

I like this idea. I saw the Ambassador T-shirt Pierros wore in FossAsia
in Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam last week.

IMO, it would be better if the Fedora logo could be highlighted for easier
recognizing.

Tuan

Hi Buddhika,

please be aware, that there are existing Logo[1]-Guidelines[2] which
could be maybe vs. your idea of "highlight" something ..
... for not running in trouble with Red Hat legal :-P

We can "highlight" the logo by setting the background around it lighter,
or things like that.
Just an idea.

Kind regards, 
Tuan

[Gerold]

hehe, ....

the Ambassador Group in EMEA (mostly Germany, starts) wear that shirts
since FOSDEM[1] in 2006 and we're at least in Germany known at the Blue
Man Group which makes a little noise coming as a group of 20 and more
people to a fair and wearing it ...

But yes, it's up to you to decide what to do (and wear); I can only
speak about the past.

This maybe a good idea.
At first, it may be not easy to recognize, especially when you some alone
(I myself usually attend events as a Fedorian alone, since I am the only
Fedora Ambassador in Vietnam now :). But after that, it could be easier.

Again, please stop arguing about region dividing issue.
We (APAC) and all others already know that all of us are in an unified
community.

Kind regards, 
Tuan

[Buddhika Chandradeepa Kurera]

Hi Fedorians,

No more arguments over this.

We will use
"Fedora Ambassadors"

APAC Ambassadors rejected :)

So can we please talk about other factors like color logos and so on.
Please share ideas about these things

My vote is for a blue one like EMEA [1].

I would suggest to use a brighter blue shirt color like the American ones:

I get two custom made polos. One white, one grey. Logo stands out
better on light background.

In the other hand... Different colours have the advantage that when
you have two days in a row, people can tell that you are not using
yesterday polo. hahahaha.

Please everyone. People letting others know how they think about
presenting ambassadors at events is not arguing. I'm really not sure I
understand how so many people came to think there was any argument at
all in this thread.

What should go on our new shirts? People give their ideas. That is
fine and dandy. Now the people making the shirts can decide how to
move forward using their judgment based on good feedback.

All is good. Make some great shirts and go make everyone proud wearing them.

This is true Tuan, the logo cannot be seen with the blue background.
Therefore according to the logo guideline the logo color or background
should be chenged.

We should finalize the design soon therefore bring your ideas please......
