[fedora-my] Re: Fedora Campus Ambassador
(i'm sending this thread to the fedora-my mailing list and cc'ing both
of you, I hope you've subscribed to the ML by now)
Hi,
2009/3/16 ahmad shaiful amiruddin <ahmadshaiful(a)gmail.com>:
Ok. thank you so much for your email. My name is Ahmad Shaiful
Amiruddin b.
Taher. I am from Marang Terengganu. A first year student pursuing a Bachelor
in Electrical Engineering in Multimedia University Cyberjaya Campus. I run
fedora core 8 on my macbook. I shall say that I do not have any experience
in this thing but I do want to do it.
thats the spirit .. there will be lots of stuff ahead of us, so I hope
you are ready for the challenges :D
Do read these #fedora-classroom log a not so long ago .. it would be
useful for a start
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Training_and_Tips_for_Fedora_Ambassadors_C...
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Trademarks_Classroom_(20090307)
an ambassador primary task would be, as you might can guess, to
promote, promote, and promote Fedora to the world and to become the
fedora figure in the community you are in (in this case, your
university). You does necessarily need to know the highly technical
stuff , but nonetheless, its still a useful to know some.
keep yourself updated with what happening in the Fedora community.
Subscribe to the fedora-devel (
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list ),
fedora-announce (
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list ) and the
fedora planet ( http://planet.fedoraproject.org ) and regularly read
them for updates.
upgrade your machine to fedora10 .. or if you are adventurous, to
fedora11 alpha / rawhide .. and familiarize yourself with their
highlighted features so that you can promote fedora and answer user
questions better :)
if you have problems, do ask at the mailing list ..
tq
