> Dear EMEA Ambassadors,

> Because there are many Ambassadors who want polo shirts, but who cannot

> individual country leaders as the distribution points for the shirts.
>
> The Fedora French community is a good example -- it is easiest to ship
> all the polo shirts for the French community to one Ambassador in
> France, and let him distribute them at local events.  This saves a lot
> of money on cross-border shipping costs also.
>
> For this to work, it is necessary that you organize yourself a bit
> inside your country, to declare one Ambassador of each country as
> responsible.  This Ambassador is in charge for collecting the money and
> shipping the Poloshirts inside his country and for providing the money
> and a shipping address to us. The Money Transfer will processed over the
> Fedora EMEA e.V. The WikiPage is prepared - what do you all think?

We've already done something like this for Poland over a year ago and it
worked well except the fact I still haven't received part of my money frome
some people I used to trust. Happily it wasn't that big amount so I was able
to cover it by myself. And well, I find it as a good idea to create such a
"general pattern" for distributing the poloshirts inside particular
countries. But AFAIR there was a discussion on creating something like
"local leaders" for every country some time ago... and my guess it'd be
quite strongly connected with such a "local leader" role, couldn't it?

Regards,
Pawel
