Nomination period for Fedora Board, FESCo, and FAmSCo elections closes Nov. 5
by Robyn Bergeron 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Greetings and salutations, It is time for yet another edition of.... "Robyn's Fedora Public Service Announcements" :) I'd like to give you a friendly reminder that the nomination period for the upcoming Fedora elections will be closing promptly TOMORROW, Saturday, November 5, 2011, at 23:59:59 UTC (US 19:59:59 EDT, 16:59:59 PDT). Full information about the elections, including the elections schedule, and links to where one may nominate, can be seen here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Elections This election cycle will fill the following seats for a one-year period: * Fedora Board: 2 elected seats, as well as 2 appointed seats * FESCo (Fedora Engineering Steering Committee): 4 elected seats * FAmSCo (Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee): 7 elected seats Running concurrently with the nomination period (and, hence, closing at the end of the nomination period), the elections questionnaire is also open for adding questions which will be posed to candidates. Following the closing of the questionnaire, candidates will be asked to answer questions relevant to the position for which they are seeking election. Questions may be added here, and, again, will also close on Saturday, November 5, 2011: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F17_elections_questionnaire If you are planning on seeking election to one of these bodies, please remember to complete your self-nomination *prior* to the deadline. Additionally, if you have a fellow contributor who had indicated interest and has not yet self-nominated, be a Friend and remind them to act promptly. Thanks! -Robyn

[legals] Media production out of the Fedora Project perspective
by Kévin Raymond 04 Nov '11

04 Nov '11

Hi guys, I could not find any docs about media production without ambassadors involved (nor FamSco approval). Fedora is free software, mostly under GPL, if an NPO ask me if they could sell a DVD containing only Free Softwares, as well as the Fedora Live CD included, is there any problem? I don't think so if the Fedora Project iso is not altered. Is there a difference between hundreds and thousands units? What about selling respins? Which wiki page details this? Cheers, -- Kévin Raymond User:shaiton GPG-Key: A5BCB3A2

However, there are only 8 nominations for FAmSCo [1] up to now. I believe we have a lot of people those got enough experience as well as always want to contribute more and more to Fedora. So, why don't you nominate for FAmSCo now. [1] https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAmSCo_election_2011_nominations Kind regards, Tuan

Hm, I think I need to script that because filling out templates manually sucks. I always keep forgetting something. :( What I wanted to say is: The next meeting will be in two weeks from now, that's Wednesday, November 16th at 20:UTC. Regards, Christoph

Shipping Requests in NA
by inode0 02 Nov '11

02 Nov '11

Hello fellow ambassadors, This is a reminder from your shipping department that we could use your help when placing requests for media and/or swag in the following two ways. (1) Shippers are volunteers and often have busy lives and can't process requests immediately. Give them a few days at least to gather your items, pack them, deliver them to the shipper, etc. Expecting this to take one week would be helpful to shippers who do this work for us as time permits in their normal lives. (2) Help us control costs by planning ahead for what you need. 99% of shipments should be done via normal ground rates. This saves a lot of money and also helps give shippers time to process your request. If you know about an event in the future you can really help us out by getting your request into trac at least two weeks prior to the event. Thanks, John
