Hi,

Bringing that up again. First to the statement of Brian, that there would be changes in the budget.planning process. As you can see in the log of famsco meeting from 25. January

https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-2/2017-01-25/famsco.2017-01-25-14.01.log.html

Its not the case the submission date is still September and therefore  the FAD should be held before. So I wait for an answer, why the change was made and at least going behind Rammadan to early August to meet that date.

[I hadn't seen this note earlier; it hit a different mail filter. duh!]

I'd like to state that distilling the broad objectives into tangible
outcomes specific to local communities is deeply required and
relevant. Often the event planning notes (on the wiki pages) adopt an
one-size-fits-all approach which builds on a template-form of FUDCon.
These sets of questions are equally applicable to events of small(er)
sizes and should probably be put up on the wiki somewhere to refer to.
