gnokii added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` @amsharma you know what your problem is? You mixing anywhere in without deeper knowledge, we still have a lot Ambassador shirts left. Not seen a ticket to get it. So you managed more then a year not to raise the ticket, I asked before FUDCon who needs one, not seen that you said that you need one. Same for FAD KUL I asked nobody reacted.

If I remember right and I would find this logfile and was someone with the nick amsharma, as we planned to do the shirts that they can be done cheaper in India. So far of knowledge, so dont tell ever again nobody shared this information.

nobody would have kept you from asking before making a ticket, if we still have Ambassador shirts

You saying here I have seen the list and I dont know which list you talking about, I dont care about fedora-india list or what list do you mean, I have not seen any mail on this topic at the Ambassadors list nor have I seen a ticket assigned to me to get a shirt ``

gnokii added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` @bex dont you see, its just we need just some shirts for something, you always tell if there is a good reason, so whats the reason here I dont see, its just want to have t-shirts.

This is about things we agreed as a community, how to handle it and it gets in a constant ignored. Its about reading log files and keep yourself up to date.

That is our inventory: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD:PhnomPenh_2014/shirts

its provable, that the complaining person was Ambassador during last FUDCon, its also proven that i reminded on the shirts and its also proven that there been Indians who could have taken it back, to save postal fees which make it always hard to have centralized swag in APAC.

But no, we using now the ways the Diversity Team uses, we need just say we want to spend and they get, and this method we transfer now to the Ambassadors. Speaking about getting it cheaper with a sum of 5 is just a joke. We did a larger batch of this shirt for a reason, to stop this local production in a different look thing. We dont want the situation here, producing local shirts like in LATAM where is then written on Fedora Brazil or whatever. We wanted to have all the same across APAC and we have not achieved it to 100%, you can look how many mails went out to get to this 46 distributed. And the core problem is this carelessness about what is going on.

amitshah added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` @gnokii please present a welcome tone to new ambassadors. After all, the community is what its members are, and if this is the tone used to welcome them, it's all downhill after. You're a senior member, and I'm sure you could find a different way if you want to convey your displeasure.

You've pointed to the wiki page where the shirts have been claimed or distributed, but there's no count of shirts that are left in the inventory. Can you please share those details (preferably on a wiki page)?

Also, since you're active on this ticket, can you please look at https://pagure.io/ambassadors-apac/issue/217 and get a shirt shipped to Woo? That was a really bad experience for him.

Thanks, ``

bex added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` @gnokii It is clear you do not want to do the things needed to manage these shirts, such as shipping the shirts when needed and clearly reporting the inventory status. Please ship them to me.

The address is:

Brian Exelbierd Red Hat, Inc. Purkyňova 71/99, Královo Pole 612 00 Brno CZECH REPUBLIC

Fedora can either prepay the shipping (contact me directly for details) or I can reimburse you when you have a receipt.

Please post a tracking number by Monday March 19th or post a complete inventory with an explanation about why the shirts cannot be shipped. They may be shipped by DHL ground or a similar style service that will deliver in less than 2 weeks.

While Mindshare works on the new ambassador structure I will happily manage the distribution of these shirts and then relocate them as appropriate.

Thank you. ``

Numbers - 50 Fedora T-shirts and 5 ambassador t-shirts We can get it done by local vendors if possible at one place for cost effectiveness.

I have 2 ambassador t-shirts (Asian male L size) left over from the 2014 APAC FAD. You're welcome to drop in at reserved-bit (337, Amanora Chambers, Above Amanora Mall) to pick them up; it's pretty close to the RH office. ``

gnokii added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` @bex you are a hopeless case, really. You assumed something, I never said I am responsible nor asserted that I am, when somebody says "I shall ship a shirt to Woo" doesnt make me responsible at all. I just said there are many shirts left and I even gave the link to the inventory POINT. You are not better then this person, who "demanded" me to do this task as you not read the ticket otherwise you would not ask me such questions.

mattdm added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` Let's move on and focus on the actual request. As I understand the policy from the [2014 web page](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD:PhnomPenh_2014/shirts) the correct procedure is to file a ticket in the "APAC Trac", which has now migrated to _this tracker_. This request is basically that, except the ticket filer didn't know that there might be shirts still available (which is reasonable, since 2014 was a long time ago and there is no clear public tracking of any stock and it seems pretty straightforward to assume that a page that hasn't been updated since December 2015 might not be accurate — even if one would know to start with that obscure wiki page).

So, no one has shown up saying that they have shirts to distribute to the new ambassadors, except @siddhesh, who has two in male L size. That's clearly inadequate for the request. So, let's go back to the beginning and figure out what's needed and then get new shirts produced.

I suggest, though, that rather than doing this just in APAC, we should figure out what we want to do globally. I'm not sure the best way to do that, but I think maybe closing this ticket and opening one in Mindshare would be a good approach. ``

duffy added a new comment to an issue you are following: `` Sometimes discussions that go downhill because of a misunderstanding can be put back on track. It seems this was dragged down all around.

Since we're airing it all here altho thats probably not the most productive way fwd....

There are some valid concerns here:

- Missing data : how many new ambassadors - Missing data : context for t shirt need - Concern : ambassadors who have been around more than a year not having t shirts - trying to track down who needs one - Concern : were spending more money instead of using resources we already have - Concern: a discussion about this issue is happening elsewhere and isnt linked to here in the ticket for better context in fulfilling it - Concern: as new ambassadors come on board inventory data isnt being shared or tracked in a consistent and discoverable way - Concern: volunteers being demanded to do things

Instead of focusing on solving some of these problems there is a continual back and forth of tone policing and he said she said in *multiple* directions.

Yet behind the scenes despite all this public airing of grievances gnokii is informed privately hes banned from fedora for a lengthy period of time bc of this ticket? Ia that how we resolve conflict now?

I have said my piece multiple times about concerns around wastefulness in terms of both spending and the environment on swag. I wont reiterate that. But it is 2018, ambassadors have been working with swag inventory for a long time. Ambassadors need to focus on managing inventory if - as it seems from concerns raised here - this isnt managed centrally and isnt kept updated. If this ticket was filed under design teams tracker - no offense to anyone, we may have a very different style of ticket management but i suspect from the back and forth here theres disagreement as to ambassadors ticket process - this ticket does not have enough data to be actionable. If inventory was managed well it wouldnt have been as necessary.

I get that Sirkos tone was blunt to start but it didnt go downhill until it was assumed to be offensive, and you lead him down that path. Sirko is an extremely talented and motivated volunteer in Fedora and if you could figure out how to harness his passion and energy instead of assuming the worst and pushing him down a spiral like this you would have a powerfull ally.

In the future if you have a concern about Sirko please reach out to me privately.

I also get btw we cant be perfect in everything, but why dont we try to be better. ``
