I have tried to read all the comments here, but will likely miss a few points.
First I want to summarize what I think the issue is:
1. It is undesirable to have a person seeking to connect with the Fedora project find the
Ambassador list, submit a 'ping' to the list and get silence in return. (no
attribution to the cause at this point).
2. It is undesirable to put extra road blocks in the way of people wanting to be
ambassadors to the world for Fedora (there are many ways to do this, but the key thing is
that it is a people to people role)
---
We had a similar discussion somewhere else... and some ideas I tossed out then are:
A. Build a ticket like system with built-in escalation that people submit their
ambassador 'pings' too. This would allow for any ambassador to 'claim' the
request and help the person. If the item does not get responded too in a defined period of
time it can be escalated to a regional ambassador who has agreed to be 'more
active'. They can assist personally or reach out to find someone who can.
B. Have a system that asks for Ambassadors to 'check-in' to maintain their
ambassador status. This could be once a year or some other period of time (I suggest no
less than a year). No reporting, no need to 'show' you work. Just sign-in and
confirm that you are still interested. The Ubuntu project did this with membership in
their projects be defining a membership expiration date (with a ten day grace period) that
would send out reminders starting 30 days before expiration. All a person had to do is
login and click a button to extend their membership for another year. No hassles with
paperwork or contacting a person.
