10 Sep '10

Hi, as far as you all remember, I promised to support the organizer from FUDCon in Switzerland. Right now, I can announce, that I was able to promise you -as attendee- a special topic. For those who stay until monday I can organise a sightseeing at CERN [1] the European Organisation for Nuclear Research. A friend of mine which is a Doctor in Physics works at the ATLAS Project [2] and will do a guided tour for us. We can also have a lok (unfortunatly not a touch) in their computing cluster. Mostly the CERN runs which runs Scintific Linux ... If you're interested let me know! friendly yours Gerold [1] http://public.web.cern.ch/public/ [2] http://public.web.cern.ch/public/en/LHC/ATLAS-en.html

Votes for workshop in OSWC 2010
by Arturo Fernandez 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

Dear Ambassadors and friends, OSWC 2010 (Open Source World Conference) will be next october in Malaga, Spain. I wrote a paper for a workshop about Fedora Project. The organization of this event is using a system based on votes to choose workshop, keynotes, conferences and so on. It would be very useful to get a lot of votes, this is the URL to vote: http://www.opensourceworldconference.com/malaga10/?q=node/297 As Ambassadors in Spain, Jukka Palander and me offered this workshop. I hope the organization of OSWC 2010 chooses this workshop to spread our project. Thanks for supporting it! Cheers, Arturo. -- Arturo Fernandez arturofernandez(a)fedoraproject.org https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Arturofernandez

fedoracommunity.org portal design
by Máirín Duffy 26 Aug '10

26 Aug '10

Hi Ambassadors! I just created a blog post on the fedoracommunity.org redesign that Sijis and I have been working on in the websites team: http://mairin.wordpress.com/2010/07/19/fedoracommunity-org-website-design/ Thank you for the help you provided earlier in tracking down some of the various country sites; it made the mockups possible. I wanted to know if you had any feedback on the design so far, and if we missed any community sites that you may be aware of. Do let us know. I am hoping this site can serve as a helpful tool for Fedora Ambassadors in the future, especially in directing new/potential users to their local community. Let me know if this makes sense! Thanks, ~m

I want to be Ambassador
by Abdel Gadiel Martínez Lassonde 01 Aug '10

01 Aug '10

Dear Peter. First, you should look for a mentor in the Fedora Project website. After that, you may keep in touch with he/she, and later, you must do an event and post it to the worldwide community to prove that you are able to be ambassador. If you got any questions, you can ask without problem. Thank you.
