Hi Pascal and Fedora Experts
Good work.
I would like to throw light on our "taking a Short Break - List" as i
understand. I propose full usage for Ambassadors and editors too.  Vacation
List
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Vacation

We can also add a shadow responsibility alike shadow cabinet of ministers, a
co-editor who can step in within 24 to 36 hours if timely update is not
done.

For Ambassadors Beat for which I hold,  Buddhika will be shadow editor,
 will be standing in if i am delayed/on vacation

Thanks and regards
Richard Vijay
Ambassador & Beats Editor
