Manuel,
This is not an Ambassadors matters, but you are right about caring for
users, regarding Skype many people use it but if Skype will not work
with the new version of KDE, there is GNOME and it is a matter for Skype
people, not Fedora, we do not package Skype. If Skype want to be ready
on the Linux and KDE world they will take care of that.
Fedora is for innovation as you mention, but seems like you are asking
Fedora to stop doing it because of Skype. I'm sure Fedora Users that
know what Fedora is about will understand.

Slight shift to something that is ambassador related ...
I'm curious at this point what is it about Fedora that matters
to you?
Why should these users use Fedora at all? What about Fedora
draws you
to it and makes you want to promote Fedora?

@John: I wrote an article that explains the answer to your question
for the Fedora LATAM Magazine,
I'm going to give a brief answer here for you:
1) What is about fedora that matters to me?
It's care for giving the Linux user the most cutting edge technology
is what has made me
a faithful follower of Fedora Linux and this same "love for
innovation" was what brought me
into the Fedora Project world, because I personally quite like
innovation, most if we're talking
about computer's technology of these days...
2) Why should these users use fedora at all?
I think because Fedora is the perfect mix between Technology and
choice,
it's free, ir's secure, it's elegant and it's capable of about
everything because of
it's community. If we can get more users involved into the project we
can give a
better service that other distros and we can have more followers that
love fedora,
because we have the greatest linux distribution in the world...
3) What about fedora drew me to it and made me want to promote it?
My passion for innovation and the will to give the user Top Line
software
that is usable in their lives, For example, let me tell you an
anecdote:
Here at México is an organism called IEMS, this organism provides free
High School
Education for the mexicans and they use linux as their base system...
Since years ago,
they're using Mandriva for the "General" part and for the music
session they used to use Ubuntu Studio.
Now, Since months ago, they were having problems with Ubuntu Studio,
one software they used to use didn't sound
so the students weren't able to take their music class as it was
suposed to be. Then in a Linux conference I met a Music teacher
of ONE of these schools and called me to solve the problem because no
one at that time was able to do it...
I had trouble solving their problem, but at the end, my solution was
changing Ubuntu Studio for Fedora, wich works great and now,
what started in that ONE school, is expanding: From that day, ALL
SCHOOLS of the IEMS organism are replacing Ubuntu Studio for
Fedora, and the executives and bosses are in talks to standarize ALL
computers with only one distribution: Fedora.
Is because this stories of success I've lived with this distro I'm
gonna continue working for it, I'm going to promote it
and also, I'm going to support the final user who wants to use Linux
and do not "have a headache", Because Linux is
for everyone, but not everyone finds it as easy to use as maybe you or
me find it.
