Yes, such a list would be nice to have..

We in IT Development Spain are 100% Fedora friendly. We have no other OS running than Fedora and one server having CentOS. Its been so for a 8 years now.

I would imagine a valuable piece of information to have as a Fedora Ambassador would be a list of companies and organizations local to you that are Fedora (and Red Hat) friendly. Is there such a list?

Thanks in advance.

Regarding this list of companies and organizations local to each of us that are Fedora (and Red Hat) friendly, is there a space on the Fedora Wiki where this could be compiled by Ambassador location? Seems a hefty task (despite falling from 700+ to 400+ ambassadors after cleanup) but a useful one.

Thanks to Tuan Truong Anh, Christoph Wickert and Jukka Palander for their feedback so far.

I would imagine there are hurdles to compiling the list, as well. 1) Companies may not want to be listed. 2) IT orgs often change technology direction and move to another GNU/Linux distro or away from *NIX. 3) Companies come and go and the list would be out of date in time for that reason. 4) And so on...

I can think of many benefits to having it including: 1) Job seekers looking to target their skills. 2) Ambassadors seeking meeting space and sponsors. 3) Ambassadors seeking recruits to the Fedora project. 4) Ambassadors seeking to spread the word about Fedora/Red Hat OS updates and other news.

Cheers.
