135 Free Media Requests need to be filled
by Karlie Robinson 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

Hello everyone. It seems that this list got very quite right about the ways to fill Free Media Requests once the chatter about the disc format was stopped. We're still looking for ideas to boost capacity to ensure that everyone who requests a disc gets one in a timely manner. We have capacity issues every month and need everyone to do some thinking so that the program can get better with time. This is a reminder that there are 135 requests yet to be filled on the June List [1] You can help by... 1) By directly filling requests. See the Contributors page for info on how to join up [2] 2) By making a cash donation. See the Donations page at link [3] below. 3) By encouraging people who order discs to order from a vendor doing sponsored Media. The Vendors are marked with a Star at [4] or go right to the short list at [5] 4) by encouraging anyone doing respins and remasters of Fedora 7 to post them at Respins.org. Every ISO I can add to the On-Disk.com catalog means more free Media Discs being sponsored. ~Karlie Robinson [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution/FreeMedia/F7DVD/June [2] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution/FreeMedia/Contributors [3] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution/FreeMedia/Donation [4] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution/OnlineVendors [5] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution/SponsoredMedia

French Event - RMLL (July 10-14) - Need some help
by Maxime Carron 07 Jun '07

07 Jun '07

Hi folks, Spring monthes are great and busy for the french team. We have planed many events, and almost french ambassadors are involved in one of them. But it's sometimes hard to find poeple who have free time to spread fedora during working days. From July the 10th to 14th will occur the RMLL (Rencontres Mondiales du Logiciel Libre) ie "Free Software World Meetings" in Amiens, France. RMLL is a big and great event in France. Lots of poeple are coming from all over the world, and both high level and beginner conferences are planed during the week. You can find info about it at http://www.rmll.info/rubrique3.html?lang=en Patrice Kadionik (active member and community manager on fedora-fr.org) is co-chair for System and Embedded system section. Alan Cox will be there too. As this event occurs during students holidays it's possible to rent student rooms for 10€/nigth and eat for 1€/meal. Currently we're just 2,5 volunteers for this events (Christophe Polyte, Charles Vinchon, Maxime Carron [i'm the half]), which is really not enough. We need your help. Feel free to contact me for more information or if you want to attend this event. Cheers, Maxime -- Maxime Carron <maxime.carron@@fedoraproject.org> French Fedora Ambassador Fedora-fr Community Manager - http://www.fedora-fr.org

Paperwork anyone ?
by Hanafiah Muhamad 07 Jun '07

07 Jun '07

Dear Respected Ambassadors; :-) I believe many of you out there have experience to handling many linux / fedora event. I would like to recommend that we build a system that list our documentation and also paperwork. This system can help many people to create their own event or caloboration with other parties. We also can created own own standard in handling our event. Beside that we can make enhance our performance. The most important is to create local Fedora LUG. Local LUG can be used to distribute media and merchandise. This can eliminate multiple request or shipping cost. Local Fedora LUG should be responsibility to manage merchandise and local fund. Later on this LUG will be line P 2 P torrent which can support each other. Thank You --- Mohd Hanafiah bin Muhamad Fedora Ambassadors for Malaysia http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/HanafiahMuhamad
