Alex, FYI, I would have been very enthusiast of being there on the first Fedora-ambassadors Meeting. Unfortunatly, as the meeting takes place during office hours and as my company does not allow me to use any IRC,Jabber,etc... client softs due to restricted policies, I could not be there. I think I am not the only one in that case. Nonetheless, I will principaly communicate via mail on Fedora-ambassadors-list. So, it could be nice to have a board where we could retreive the ideas developped during meetings in the case of we would not have had the possibility to be present at these ones. Well, it is just an idea.

Yes Rahul, we are almost there. Be ready to go ahead and spread the news soon. I will send a separate alert to both lists (sorry for cross-posting) to make sure we all are ready :) a On 11/10/05, Rahul Sundaram <sundaram(a)redhat.com> wrote: > Hi > > So the Logo has been decided upon.

This is a great idea and I am glad you went ahead and implemented it. As for the logo useon stickers and T-shirts--because our logo is so new, and we have not done this before, I would feel more comfortable if Rodrigo sent the designs to me first, so I can make sure the logo is used correctly. Otherwise, if you have a legal entity (ideally a non-profit) to collect the money (and to pay taxes off the profits), there should not be any problems. If you do not have the organization to process the money flow, I would say WAIT until we have one, and then we will help you collect and spend the money. We are very close to getting a bank account for Fedora in the US, and many things will become easier from there. Rodrigo, please keep me in the loop on this one. a On 11/10/05, David Barzilay <barzilay(a)redhat.com> wrote: > Hi Elliot, > > Thanks for you e-mail. > > We have been talking (Rodrigo, and I) and we'll probably go with this > option. > > As this has been a long road to something supposedly simple, some guys > are very eager to make it happen ;) > > Thanks for your support, > Dave Barzilay > > > On Thu, 2005-11-10 at 12:46 -0500, Elliot Lee wrote: > > On Thu, 10 Nov 2005, Rodrigo Padula de Oliveira wrote: > > > > > We will launch in briefing the official site of Brazilian Fedora Project. > > > I found a good server for hosting of the site > > > (http://www.chihost.com/vipplan.php) > > > > Hey Rodrigo, would you or other Brazilian Fedora hackers talk with David > > Barzilay <barzilay(a)redhat.com> about hosting the site for free on the > > Fedora machines? > > > > It is helpful to have official Fedora sites hosted together to enable > > better integration between the sites... > > -- > Fedora-marketing-list mailing list > Fedora-marketing-list(a)redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list > -- New content on FUDCon page! http://fedoraproject.org/fudcon FUDCon: Fedora Users and Developers Conference

[Fedora-ambassadors-list] Welcome to the team!
by Alex 12 Nov '05

12 Nov '05

Hello dear Fedora Ambassadors! I am glad to welcome you to the team. We have some exciting tasks ahead of us, spreading the good word about Fedora and I would like to take this opportunity to make sure you all know what this team is all about. First of all, we represent Fedora to the rest of the world. Please remember this at all times! I encourage you to read http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Conduct and to ask questions here on this list whenever in doubt. Second, we are the ones responsible for making sure the world knows about Fedora. How do we do this? We go to all sorts of events, IT, Linux, or maybe even music and art shows and talk with people about advantages of Fedora and Open Source software to them. It is important to remember that most people out there would not be able to name more than two operating systems, and that the advantages of OSS are not obvious to them. So please if you have not spoken with complete newbies about Fedora, Linux, OSS etc in a while, do your homework. Here is a good place to start: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/TalkingPoints Third, please also keep your eyes open for events that would let Fedora ehibit or have a talk for free or for *very* little money. If you find such an event, alert the rest of us on the list, and we will decide whether to go there and if yes what materials you will receive, and what funds we can make available for you. You can also order some material for giving out -- use the online form at http://fedoraproject.org/forms/AmbassadorForm.html We will add other goodies with time. And lastly, please be sure to recruit others to support you in the region you are representing. We should aim to have at least two folks in each region, but ideally more is better--and if you are travelling or ill, or if we need to cover multiple events it is always good to have someone to jump in for you. Okay, that is basically it. Please ask questions if something is unclear! Cheers, a -- New content on FUDCon page! http://fedoraproject.org/fudcon FUDCon: Fedora Users and Developers Conference
