Dear all,
Today again, I have met someone who are working for one of Fedora Projects. We talked about what he does on his project and if knew other people woking on Fedora. I said yes of course and even in our area. He was really surprized when I told him that other nice guys were also woking on Fedora close to him. Then he complain me also that no Physical Fedora Structure exists till now in my area. Ok I have to admit. However it is going to change.
Unfortunatly, they are a lot of contributors who are doing something in their corner and nobody is knowing that this one or that one is also working on Fedora on different project close to us. It will be more funny if we could create local community in order to share experience, knowledge, etc... So I think in addition of our ambassador role we should be the point of contact for these guys in our country. I have started to do a kind of list but I would have need to have specific wiki page for this goal in order readable by everybody. You see what I mean.
Something like "Ambassador by country" for all people working on Fedora and not exclusivly for Ambassador. Even if the wiki page "Ambassador by country" have his importance.
Like, this for each country you will have a maintenor which help Fedora guys to know each others, permit to do the link with Red Hat, be the point of contact for a specific area.
Tell me what you are thinking about that. And why not ? If you know somthing similar?
Have a nice evening. Best Regards Fred ----------------------------------------------------- Fedora-ambassadors-list mailing list Fedora-ambassadors-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ambassadors-list

Well, we already *are* the point of contact. See "Aims" on our wiki page: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors "Be a point of contact for local community members and channel the feedback to Fedora Project" Regards,

You might also be interested in the Fedora Frappr group.
It isn't comprehensive, and includes many people who are users and not contributors, but will let people know where others who are interested in Fedora are located.
Hello,
I have missed that point. Sorry for that.
Best Regards Fred

Hi again,
Well, even if http://www.frappr.com/fedora exists I really thinks that a wiki page associated to a specific area and maintained by an or several ambassadors could be a plus. A page which Fedora peolple can refer in order to find information linked to their area like meet'up, official events, non official events. A sort of Liniked In for communauty for a specific region. Cause with frappr, you can have people who are not interseted to be a part of a kind of user group.
Well, I know it is little bit confuse but I ma trying to find to right idea cause people here have a need.
Thanks for your help anyway.
Kind Regards Fred

Yeah, I think you have a good thinking ;) I have figured out one idea - maybe we could create something called Fedora Users Groups (FUGs), the name of a group like that would be for example New York Fedora Users Group (NYFUG). What do you think of that?
Cheers, Pawel Sadowski
Dear Pawel,
Yes, I would like to. :) Cause a lot of guys which are woking on Open Source Project complain it does not exist physical structure till now. But in order to do that I need to have a physical support - I think a wiki web page could be a good start point - and the agreement of the community.
In addition I would like to have feed back from Ambassadors.
Thanks a lot for your reply.
Kind Regards Fred

Following what I have written above I would need to have your opinion, your agreement about what I am trying to do. Which is in fact to tend to link all Fedora communauty of a specific country or state. We are already 6 for one week. Not so bad ! In order to that as best as I can, I think I would need a wiki web page on the Fedoraproject web site in order to refer to it when someone new or older of this country needs informations for his specific area.
Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Fred, I still don't see the need but you feel it's needed please go ahead create a wiki page under your personal wiki name. This way we can review it before moving to root level. Make sure to add as much information including your proposal and plan. BTW, your description of the need above sounds a lot like existing Fedora Mentors Project. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mentors Regards,
