Potential candidates: please see the meeting logs from the last FAmSCo
meeting here
https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2016-12-14/famsco.2016-12...

In particular, the *current* FAmSCo was working on a possible
transition to a wider body incorporating marketing, design, docs, and
etc., but is now the process of voting on the following statement:

Ask Council to consider whether FOSCo is needed or not and to drive
  it if they think it is.  FAmSCo will focus on retooling itself for the
  new world of post-lugs/fests and hold elections with the goal of
  empowering the new FAmSCo to do whatever it takes to get there,
  including changing everything

... which means that this is a very important time to be on FAmSCo,
because either way that vote goes, we're really looking at defining the
future of Fedora Ambassadors in a very big way.

[Jan Kurik]

The elections to FAmSCo moved from its Nomination period to the
Campaign period. For the 7 seats we have the following 13 candidates:

* Giannis Konstantinidis (giannisk)
* Itamar Reis Peixoto (itamarjp)
* Frederico Lima (fredlima)
* Daniel Lara (danniel)
* Marcel Ribeiro Dantas (mribeirodantas)
* Tulio Macedo (_Teseu_ / teseu)
* Lucas Landim (landim)
* Jona Azizaj (jonatoni)
* Sirko Kemter (gnokii)
* Sylvia Sanchez (Kohane / lailah)
* Zacharias Mitzelos (mitzie)
* Robert Mayr (robyduck)
* Gabriele Trombini (mailga)

Let me wish all the candidates who nominated for FAmSCo lot of
success. Their Campaign will end on January 9th, 2017 at 23:59 UTC.

Regards,
Jan
