Sorry I missed the meeting -- I was setting up for OSCON, which starts today.

At some future meeting -- and possibly here on the list -- I would like to discuss lanyards and different Fedora "wear" for the ambassadors, i.e., something different than polos for events, etc. I will agendize this for the next meeting.
