Hai there,
Jens pointed that what is written on the wiki could prevent some
potential contributors to join Fedora Ambassadors Project.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Conduct
" You are Fedora. As an ambassador, you don't just represent yourself,
you represent the Fedora Project. When people think of you, they will
think of the Fedora Project. "

This is a problem for those who earn a living working with other OSes,
but promote fedora during events. These potential contributors would
like to become ambassadors at the same time this title should not
destroy their professional image. This is problem of wordings in the
wiki.

In fact, there are several cases like these in the Fedora Marketing
Mailing list.

Can it be rewritten appropriately to provide on/off Fedora Ambassador status ?
Please note, that among those who are concerned by this, have already
contributed to the Fedora Project and still will, but would like to be
Fedora Ambassador at the time, and not during their working hours.
