Hi, Larry ! Hi, All!
I missed IRC chats last week but it's great that you passed message trough mail
list. Where can I read transcript or whatever additional info about Campus
Ambassadors program?
I am university teacher (CS dept. Chernigiv Dtate Technological University,
Ukraine) and we have a lot of ideas and a lot of work planed to promoute free
software in Ukrainian higher education. We founded University Linux Competence
Center that helps university teachers and students in adaptation of teaching
process to Linux free software. We have more then 50 active students in our
team.
27. Nov. we have a little conference in Chernigiv Dtate Technological University
plus Linux install fest and planning a lot of activities. Fedora is widely useed
at our CS dept. so Fedora 12 will be show star :) And we are planning a lot of
other activities so we're looking for partner universities from EU, especially
regarding to "TEMPUS" EU Commission project where we have good experience of
last 3 years. CSTU officials are wery positive to our initiatives and support
ULCC.
As you can see, I am very interested in Fedora and RH programs aimed to
educatgion. In my opinion, education is key to technology promotion.
PS.
Unfortunately, our sites do not contain yet much info in English, but anyway it
could be interesting, English pages of ULCC is in progress.

Hey, all --
There's a discussion currently in #fedora-ambassadors around the Campus
Ambassadors program. If I recall correctly Jack Aboutboul started this
before his departure from RH. From the look of things -- and I hope no one
takes offense here if I'm mistaken -- it appears that the project is
dormant.
If this program needs a jump-start to get going again:
-- could interested parties meet in #fedora-campusamb to discuss where this
can go, and
-- could we discuss this at the next FAmNA meeting, and
-- if I'm not usurping anyone's authority (like THAT never happens . . .
:-) ), I'd like to marshall this project back to activity, unless an
actual student would like to take the reins.
