Sohail Riaz we had started it as a part time activity, but after some days spending with translation, we have now decided to do it on full time bases, for the reason, i have requested one of my friend in Japan, and he have donated me a domain and web-hosting-space i.e. linuxinurdu.org I am now searching a few dollars donation to buy two PCs and for Pocket Money :). this will help me to give full concentration to translation project. if i could get some small donation, I hope we will succeed pretty soon. I personally request you all to find few dollars donation for this project. I am very much thank full to MR. ALAM , he really did help me. Thanks, -- Nayyar Ahmad

[Fedora-ambassadors-list] Fedora Community Free Media Project - Take 2
by Rahul Sundaram 04 Feb '06

04 Feb '06

Hi http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FreeMedia So I think this is a excellent idea. Everybody in the community who is willing to distribute media signs up in the page. Adds their name, region, number of CD/DVD's and other relevant comments in a table and everybody else who wants the media contacts them. Ambassadors can act as regional contact points for these things in many occasions. Also Link to LUG's which have a list of CD's available. Let the community serve themselves in a distributed fashion instead of the project trying to do it top down. -- Rahul Fedora Bug Triaging - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers

[Fedora-ambassadors-list] Question about fundraising
by Jesse Keating 04 Feb '06

04 Feb '06

I need to raise some funds for the Fedora Legacy project. I need to purchase some hardware to help the transition from one build software setup to another. Initially this would just be some ram at around $100 in cost, but in the near future we are going to need some more storage, and I would like to pay something to the company that has donated hosting and power thus far. It was recommended to me that I ping this list about fund raising, so I am. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora

[Fedora-ambassadors-list] Solutions Linux
by Aurelien Bompard 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

Hello y'all So, Solutions Linux is over. It was a pretty good event. There were fewer people on the last day, and I didn't see reactions very diffrent from the day before. The president of my LUG told me that if I can get goodies through the Ambassadors program, they are very much appreciated at install parties. Like "If you choose to install Fedora, you get a free pen, cap, tshirt, ...". Can we order schwag for install parties, and not only for larger events ? I've also met someone from Red Hat France (W. Hoffmann) who is interrested in organizing events together. We'll see what comes out of that, I'll keep you informed. I've attached to this mail the presentation I used for the event. It's heavily based on previous slides, and it's in french. I can translate it to english if you want, but you'd better double-check it for mistakes before using it then. If you think it can be useful, I'll post it on the wiki, but I don't know if we can post non-english slides on wiki/Marketing/Slides I've also attached my modified template for business cards. A few things about it : - it's scaled for "Canson 4567-600" business cards paper. - I've added "http://fedoraproject.org" under the logo, but it's not in the same font as the logo itself. Pretty close though : the "a" is different and the end of the lines are not rounded, but it's barely noticeable at such a size. The font I used is URW Gothic. - if some OpenOffice guru knows how I can automatically or manually propagate a change in the first card to the other ones on the sheet, I'm all ears. I guess that would involve macros, but why not. I could post them on the wiki too, but I'd rather wait for a way to have the website name in the same font as the logo. Hope you find that useful.

RE: [Fedora-ambassadors-list] Fedora in school
by Hornain Frederic 03 Feb '06

Dear Mateusz, > We want to talk about Fedora and free soft whith teachers and student > what do you think about it?? I am doing the same things and it works great. Ok, I admit that it permits to students to have an introduction about Fedora However, it is only ponctual events and it is not so sure that student will use it. That is why I am trying to establish a durable relation between Fedora communauty and schools with the Fedora Education program when I am doing events at schools. Have a look at the following URL : http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Education If you need more information or if you have remarks feel free to contact me by mail.
