Hi, Thank you for this info, I'm planning several short presentations about Fedora Project at the University of Galati, Romania, and I did not know from where / how to get Fedora 11 CDs / DVDs. Valente

Re: [Ambassadors] The Future of release names
by Jaroslav Reznik 13 Jun '12

13 Jun '12

Hi, seems like the discussion steered to the phase of no return to the reasonable output, also it stalled - so we (as a Board) would like to push it forward. I think the best idea for now is try to get interested people to meet together, to check if there's real demand for the change and if so, to start with the real proposals to create a new process. I created Doodle poll - the next two weeks, I can add more option, just it's not very user friendly. Feel free to vote and we will see ;-) http://www.doodle.com/2y43y5vxxizsqyef Thanks Jaroslav ----- Original Message ----- > At the last Board Meeting, the Board looked at the poll results > asking > whether people felt like continuing to name releases.

Beefy Miracles at SELF
by Robyn Bergeron 31 May '12

31 May '12

Okay, just to bring some folks up to date on the Hot Dog situation at SELF: (And please note: Ruth Suehle is copied on here, as she's been helping to wrangle a lot of this, and she's applying to ambassadors - so she's not on this list quite yet, hence the copying) * We have procured a vendor for vendorizing beefy miracles at SELF via a hot dog cart, at the park directly across the street. They're coming at 12:30 on saturday, during lunch, and they'll be serving up to 280 hot dog "meals" (soda/chips/dogs). * Ruth has created a flyer that we can either (a) give out at the booth, but i suspect we'll have low traffic prior to lunch, or that we can have put into bags at the conference. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/File:Beefy-flyer-single.pdf Thoughts/comments welcome - we probably need to order them in the day or so. I know there was some discussion on "how to decide who gets it" - the text in the card could be determined by that - honestly, I suspect that with 280 lunches we probably won't run out, not everyone will want to stand in line, etc. - but we probably want to have people show badges so that we're not just giving out food to whoever is in teh vicinity of the park. But, happy to hear alternative ideas; again, I'm just not sure that we'd get enough tickets out to people by mid-day on saturday, when folks tend to be in conference-mode all morning. * A human-sized stand-up Beefy Miracle will be available for photos and such, he has been ordered and will be shipped either to Ruth in raleigh or directly to the conference. Questions, comments, etc? -robyn

Questions about FAD EMEA 2012 (Rheinfelden, Germany)
by Gabriele Trombini 31 May '12

31 May '12

I'm Gabriele Trombini (FAS mailga), an Italian Ambassador. I've a couple of questions about EMEA FAD 2012 planned for December in Rheinfelden - Germany. The first is about the adhesion procedure: have I only to put my name in the wiki? The other is about how many people can partecipate for single country? If we are more than one, either Ambassadors or not, can we all partecipate? Thank you for your replies.
