We have Fedora Marketing that's a sub-project of Fedora
Ambassador, the
problem is that we need a miliar stone in each country where media and
other ambassador, in their native language, can talk and work together.
If a italian magazine want to talk about Fedora, it prefer to takes
information in italian language, talking with an italian, at the same
time if an ambassador need help for an event, he can ask his country
team using the languge where he is more fluent.
This would mean that FAmSCo and other structure continue to make their
work focusing on the project management (and economic issue) etc..., the
only change is that each country has its local management that focus
only on organize the promotional activity. I think that Ambassadors will
be more stimulated to work in a "friendly athmosphere" and, at the same
time, will create a local identity that can only improve the local appeal.
Identifying and having a local regional representation is a good thing
and I dont think anyone here would disagree with that. However spanning
sub projects is not always worth the effort. If there is a active
regional community, nominate and have a leader among yourselves. That
can be a effective way.
In short, I agree with the need but not with the proposed method to meet
that need.
