It seems Fedora Project in USA have failed Fedora Ambassadors in French.
Please note we made every efforts to deliver the materials you
requested but at the end either the package was lost or never made it
on time.

There were several discussions to improve the situation and I believe
one of them was to create localized distribution center in Europe
supported by local Red Hat office.

So, Best of Luck for French Association.
