fedora-event-splash
by Ian Weller
Clint Savage (herlo) and I are planning to work on a program for the
Ambassadors team called "fedora-event-splash", which will basically act
as a home page for web browsers on computers at Fedora booths at events
to show users how to get and join Fedora, as well as a general outlook
on the Fedora community by aggregating from wherever people in Fedora
hang out on the internetwebtubes (i.e., Planet and blog posts,
Identi.ca, Flickr, whatever's aggregatable).
You can read more at the Request for Resources with Infrastructure at
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1026
Let us know if you're interested in helping. TurboGears hackers wanted!

Ambassador Poloshirts EMEA
by Joerg Simon
Dear EMEA Ambassadors,
Because there are many Ambassadors who want polo shirts, but who cannot
attend the events where we distribute them, we have decided to appoint
individual country leaders as the distribution points for the shirts.
The Fedora French community is a good example -- it is easiest to ship
all the polo shirts for the French community to one Ambassador in
France, and let him distribute them at local events. This saves a lot
of money on cross-border shipping costs also.
For this to work, it is necessary that you organize yourself a bit
inside your country, to declare one Ambassador of each country as
responsible. This Ambassador is in charge for collecting the money and
shipping the Poloshirts inside his country and for providing the money
and a shipping address to us. The Money Transfer will processed over the
Fedora EMEA e.V. The WikiPage is prepared - what do you all think?

Election Town Halls
by Matt Domsch
When setting up the upcoming elections, based on participant requests,
I announced we would have some IRC Town Halls, for each of the groups
being elected, between Thursday December 4 and Saturday December 6.
I'd like to propose each group have at least one, and if the group so
wishes, two, such town halls. If two, schedule them at somewhat
opposite times of day to allow greatest community participation in at
least one.
Schedule: non-overlapping, first-come-first-serve by the groups. I've
put up a placeholder schedule for the Board town halls, subject to
revision based on availability of the nominees.
Committee chairs: please discuss with your nominees the best times
they are available, and schedule on the wiki page [1] accordingly.
Moderators: consider this a call for moderators. If you would like to
moderate one or more sessions, please contact me directly. Moderators
will take questions from the -public IRC channel, ask them in the
-townhall channel, and try to keep the conversations on topic.
I've set up two IRC rooms on FreeNode:
#fedora-townhall - moderator and those running for election may speak,
anyone else can read.
#fedora-townhall-public - anyone can speak. Questions asked here may
be presented by the moderator in
#fedora-townhall.
Comments?
(all current nominees have been bcc'd)
Thanks,
Matt

Bruxelles ...
responsible Ambassador for this event is
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FredericHornain
regardless the Accomodation page at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents/FOSDEM/Accomodation I will
stay again at
http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/brubr-renaissance-brussels-hotel/
(because I have again a meeting with several guys in front of FOSDEM
together with the Board of Fedora EMEA e.V.) the costs are at the moment
for a double room EUR 79 / night and I will probably pay by my own :-(
So I like to ask who else will stay in that hotel, please send me a
short notice (per E-Mail) that we maybe combine and share rooms
together.
I will book/order latest end of this week.

Fedora 10 and Adobe CS4
by Keiran Smith
Running wine today I thought Id try install Adobe CS4 Master Collection. So
far it has been running without any problems. I think that Both Fedora and
Wine are making massive advanced in emulating the windows environment. It
was just a few months ago when Photoshop 7 was the only Adobe application
that runs in a windows emulated environment. So far I have tested Photoshop
and Flash CS4. Im unsure whether anyone is interested in this.
