sumantrom reported a new issue against the project: `ambassadors-apac` that you are following: `` As it was decided in APAC Ambassdor meeting. We would like to follow an *open* decision process where people will be able to nomiate themselves and then we can vote. This ticket is being opened as we want the entire APAC region to nominate someone as Storyteller and then we can vote. The role of the storyteller is to === Description === Helps communicate the "story" of a region's participation and activity in local events and how Fedora is impacting these local communities and events Demonstrates how regional spending is tied to real impacts and outcomes that affect the growth of the Fedora Project Works with other Ambassadors on creating event reports and ensuring they are properly syndicated throughout the community Helps come up with creative ideas to boost Fedora's impact at local events and how to measure our impact after an event === Responsibilities === * Communicate with local Ambassadors after an event to ensure report is written Sharing those in a public, static place like the Fedora Community Blog If possible, share story on social media or on relevant mailing lists * Work to create badges for every local event with a Fedora presence * Write a quarterly / bi-annual "report" on regional participation documenting what the region is up to Needless to mention that, a strong visibility within Fedora APAC Community and understanding of the project is required to perform the responsiblities. Being an Fedora Ambassador is a plus. Let's all chime in and propose names for the position. The timeline is roughly going to be about 2 weeks before we vote in APAC Storyteller. `` To reply, visit the link below or just reply to this email https://pagure.io/ambassadors-apac/issue/283

[ambassadors-apac] Issue #294: Funding request for Amita Sharma (amsharma) - OSCAL 2018
by Amita Sharma 31 May '18

31 May '18

amsharma reported a new issue against the project: `ambassadors-apac` that you are following: `` I am requesting round-trip travel funding from Mumbai, India to Tirana, Albania and accommodation for three nights (Friday - Sunday) for OSCAL 2018. My estimated travel costs are approximately 950USD (Air Tickets cost as of today on https://www.skyscanner.co.in) Lodging I request for a 3 days lodging. I am assuming other Fedora contributors from our community will also attend. I am okay with sharing a room. I need to yet look for a room, but the estimated cost should be around 100USD Here are few planned things, which I look forward to do at OSCAL, 2018 : 1. I am accepted as a speaker for my talk, "Importance of communication in Open Source communities" Abstract :: Open Source communities (Fedora) are excellent example of most diverse and globally spread work-space. Although, this is a major plus and feels amazing to work in such a diverse culture, but at the same time we need to face the challenge of accurate communication. When we are not at the same place and can't talk face-to-face, expressing the right thing in correct manner becomes more important and we need to take care of several things. Obviously, we are not always using video chats when we are communicating with our fellow community members and lack of those facial expressions make it more complex to deliver the right message. Communication has many attributes to it - right content, ambiguity, accurate by all means (ethically, culturally) and at the end we are conveying what is intended. We may think communication to be a very basic technique of delivering message, but it gets complicated specially when it is not verbal and not on video chat. You may want to write a good "WOW" but it can be interpreted as a bad "WOW" depending on the receiver's culture/mood and intend. My paper will highlight certain examples of such communication glitches and also some basic magical rules of good communication. This session is targeted especially for diverse contributors from all over the world. 2. I will participate in Fedora community meet-up, at OSCAL. Currently the abstract of the this meet-up are - Say hello to the Fedora community! Meet contributors from around the world and learn more about the Fedora community. Existing contributors, local and abroad, are encouraged to participate. If you are interested in Fedora, want to learn more about what the project is doing, or learn how to contribute, bring your questions! Did we mention there may be a sweet surprise ( Fedora-themed cake )? Justin Flory is organizing this meetup and many other Fedora contributors are expected to join this. 3. I will meet other Fedora contributors and mainly would like to discuss about the new initiative mind share and it's impact on the ambassadors group overall. 4. Diversity team admins (Justin Flory, Jona Azizaj, Bhagyashree) will be in the OSCAL, so we are planning to have a meeting for Fedora Diversity, 2018 objectives. Here is the ticket for the objectives which we are planning to discuss - https://pagure.io/fedora-diversity/issue/48 I request other ambassadors to please consider the ticket for voting as soon as possible since the delay can cause increase in the air tickets and also VISA process takes time. Thanks. `` To reply, visit the link below or just reply to this email https://pagure.io/ambassadors-apac/issue/294
