Hi Alejandro
What I followed so far (please correct me in case I am wrong), is that I
could arrange in Lima a place with facilities as labs with good Internet
connection, searching hotels and restaurants for at least 7 ambassadors
from LATAM (I do not know exactly who is invited yet).
I am also aware about the purspose of the meeting: to state some procedures
face to face in order to have a better Fedora community.
I mentioned the coliseum as part of the event (two hours for the first day)
because as you know I do per year at least five or six events to promote
Fedora and still people in Lima, we have a low percentage of knowledge
about Linux. And, because I can not go everywhere all the time to do more
workshops (because I also need to work), I did a free online tutorial of
Fedora to everyone in Backtrackacademy. [01]
I "though" that it could be great if I have the honour to have all of you
in Lima (Ambassadors with expertise in Fedora) I could do one public event
day with all of you as speakers and trainers that can teach my local
people to do real contributions as packaging, translations, wiki
manteiners, among other activities.
The coliseum could be useful for the first two hours (for install
activities to everyone in Lima who is intersted in having Fedora).
Please believe me, if this activity is so simple for most of us, for
newbies is a challenge in case they have Wifi problems and other technician
issue that I know can happen.
The second day (this plan is still in my head) we can do more private
meetings to set up (with a better view from the previous day) the actions
and plans to have a better community.
I know that before I have you online in my events but it is not the same to
have a face to face training or talk to somebody in person.
In this sense, I will always appreciate the labor of Neville, because he is
always available anytime to response with a online talk to my people in
Lima.
Please let me know if Fedora still want me to do that event in USIL, Lima,
Peru in July to present a formal plan to the authorities.
Best,
Julita

Julita,
Keep in mind this is a FAD it is dedicated to Fedora Contributors (or
interested parties) , to get together and produce some results, not a
promotional event, because of that it will be some sort of close meeting,
event do out side people are welcome cannot be a massive event with talks.

Hello Brian and ambassadors!
I work in USIL, it is a private university and because all the events I
do, I have some contacts.
I have talk with the authorities at USIL to get a coliseum, labs and
auditorium.

campus-la-molina
I need dates and I also arranging a plan to follow since installation
until Fedora workshops.
I am going to check prices around for hotels and food.
Please give me at least three days to do it :)
Thanks,
Julita

Hello Brian,
Also there is a good discussion about this in the Spanish version of this
email. I think this idea is close to happen.
Cool. I'm. It suggesting a specific place so anywhere appropriate and easy
to fly to is great.
As a non-Spanish speaker I don't follow the Spanish discussions :). This
is also A-OK :)

Hello Brian, in the last meeting I requested someone to propose another
place inside or outside Peru to get a suitable venue (and assume the
logistic, auditorium, hotel, etc), but anybody propose any place but I will
to wait until tomorrow night.
If you want to change the place, I can talk with ambassadors from Lima
(specially with bernardoha) I think he can get a suitable place. The costs
will decrease in at least 60 dollars by person.
Regards.

Good morning, as some of you know, I was working on a proposal to carry
out an organizational FAD in Cusco City, this proposal was reviewed by some
people as robyduck and bex then was presented to the council giving a
relative positive result, but the proposal needs some improvements
specially in the following terms:
- Improvement of the agenda and to establish the clear objectives.
- Incorporate the ideas of FAMSco regarding the organization of
ambassadors and related topics.
Regarding the proposal itself, it can be reviewed at the following link:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD:Cusco2017
As can be read, the FAD proposes to solve several problems like
organizative, budgetary, strategic and logistical so help us to be more
efficient and effective.
About the participants, I considered an ambassador for each country that
is active and / or influential in their country, so that she/he can
replicate (transmit) the agreements of the other collaborators of their
countries. If the ambassadors of some country consider that they can be
represented by another person we can change their representative :-)
About the dates, at first I put for the month of June but not bex hasn't
free time to attend the FAD and decided to change for the month of July
(13, 14 and 15) because in those days bex has time.
About the place, I consulted with the ambassadors of Peru about the place
and we chosen Cusco as the venue, if there is any other proposal to change
the place (inside or outside of Peru) the interested people must commit to
get an suitable place to the meetings, talks and accomodation.
With regards to place, I believe Itamar suggested in the FAmSCo meeting
that choosing a different city might result in lower costs (especially for
airfare). I think Lima was suggested. I agree we need to have someone who
is willing to own finding the place to meet in whatever city we choose. I
second the call for someone to stand up and champion this if we can save
the money reasonably.
Overall, this email is well stated and I hope there will be good
conversation in LATAM about this.
regards,
bex
* In summary, the FAD proposal can be improved in all its aspects,
therefore I request support to improve it and to have it approved so that
we can improve and grow the community. *
PS: Sorry for this big email
Greetings and thanks in advance.
