Personally I want to get a copy of ambassador request to the Sri Lankan Ambassador mailing list.

Hi Danishka,

  1. The FAmA trac is currently managed by jsimon. I can see the tickets once I logged in, but I am not sure what are the access permissions required.

  2. There are more than 100 active tickets in FAmA trac. There are no fields for storing the geographic location of the FAm requests. Applicants can put into the ticket, or in their profile wiki pages. No way to query/filter that out except manually.

  3. Changing FAmA trac into fully public involves consents from FAmSCo or even jsimon. I personally guess quorum voting is needed by FAmSCo to make this change (presume there are substantial demand shown on mailing list, generally saying). Besides, infra team should change without large problem once the decision was made.
If I am not wrong, disclosure of applicant identity have both pros and cons -  ambassadors team and public can supply previous contributions and reputations through the ticket, but this affect the fairness of FAm assessments.
