[Ambassadors] Project Fedora Out-Reach: Kickoff. (Proposed)

Thu Mar 5 13:46:05 UTC 2015

Hi,

No Joerg didnt write about xposting alone, he also strongly suggested you
to read this pages

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_be_a_successful_contributor

And if you have done, you would get t a section called "Observation" and
there you will find a line "don't assume you come with all of the answers
or that the Fedora Project is
*doing it all wrong."*
I always thought "Marketing people" get messages, Joergs message was YOU
SHOULD KNOW THE AMBASSADOR PROGRAMME before you try to chance it.

Yes we have a Ambassador programme and it can be always improved definitely
but to improve something I should know how it works first!

The list you using for your "outreach" idea was thought for FOSCo, an good
idea as there are several contributrs not represented by FESCo or FAmSCo*,
i*ts not about an new programme to replace or improve the Ambassador
programme

*.*
If you have suggestions according to that, do them on the Ambassador list!

For the help becoming Ambassador, we have this nice wiki pages guiding you
through the process: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors_Join_start
