but I have been very active in reading all the latest postings to the
lists as they come in. Being one who has been a HUGE Fedora fan for
years, and only more recently, a member of the Ambassadors, I often
feel like my inputs would probably be better answered by someone more
knowledgable. However, I do read almost all the threads in our
lists.
I am, however, a very vocal supporter of Fedora Core in my daily
duties at work and elsewhere. In my line of work, a lot of my
customers and co-workers have been exploring their non-Redmond
options, and I am always very quick to encourage them to try Fedora
Core. So, I feel my ambassador participation is more along the lines
of being an interface to folks outside the community. I am hoping
still to get to a point where I can be more actively involved in our
email discussions and mailing list threads.
I tend to place more weight with how the ambassador is working with (or
responding to) the public. That's one of the important things -
representing Fedora in the local community of the ambassador. So I
would say what you have been doing is great and the lesser amount of
participation in the mailing lists is a non-issue.
So while I agree with Gomix and his idea of tagging non-active
ambassadors it would be difficult to determine who is active and who is
not active - since I think the greatest concern is not responding to
public queries.
