What do you need to know? Where do you need to be paying attention to stuff? What are your resources? 15:05:54 (5) Whatever else I feel like :) 15:05:55 15:06:18 Before we get into that -- I'd like to hear from you. Where are you from, and how long have you been part of Fedora, or a Fedora Ambassador? 15:06:21 #topic introductions 15:06:36 go ahead :) 15:06:37 may i start? 15:06:49 hi, I'm from Belgium, and I have been in the fedora project for about a year now 15:07:06 everyone can talk -- no need to wait 15:07:27 * tatica = María Leandro = Venezuela // Fedora user since 2007, fedora ambassador since the same year :) 15:07:33 'lo, i'm yaakov m. nemoy, living in the netherlands, been with fedora since spring 2007, i'm an ambassador and rhce / sysadmin 15:07:41 Hello my name is Christos Bacharakis, i am 22 years old, and i am a part of the fedora community the past one year and a half 15:07:51 * threethirty is in Richmond, IN, USA been using Fedora since the day after Ohio Linux Fest '09, ambassador since two days ago 15:07:55 i forgot to say that i come from Greece :) 15:08:11 Hello, I am from France and I'm using fedora since Werewolf (fedora 8), and I'm Ambassador since a few day. 15:08:17 my name is Giannis,I am new ambassador from Greece and I have been using fedora for over 7 months... 15:08:20 hey,I'm Ankur,21, from India, been an ambassador for about a year and a half. 15:08:22 Hi, I'm from Western North Carolina, and am a Fedora user since Fedora 8, and am very new to the greater Fedora community 15:08:32 Hi, Dallas, Texas area, been a regular user since, redhat 7, then to FC, put it on everyone around, decided to do more with the project, so I am recent ambassador as in two weeks ago 15:08:36 threethirty: were you recruited by other Ambassadors at Ohio Linux Fest? 15:08:49 Hi, i'm from Germany, using Fedora since F10 and beeing Ambassador since May'09 15:08:50 spevack: nope by spot 15:08:50 * spevack is thrilled to see so many new folks 15:09:18 hi 15:09:31 have i missed anything in the meeting so far 15:09:32 from Malaysia.

Fedora contributors keep getting younger and younger. 15:12:14 * inode0 is sort of here - from the frozen tundra in Iowa 15:12:20 yes! ;) 15:12:25 LOL@ the Tundra 15:12:28 Ok -- now that we're done with introductions, I'll make my next point -- and tatica already sort of hinted at it. 15:12:50 o_O 15:12:53 hi 15:13:07 The range of people who have showed up for this session is remarkable. From 15 years old to 150 years old (inode0) -- and from all over the world. 15:13:22 inode0, I don't know I would bet that us in Montana would be in that frozen tundra comment 15:13:53 More than any other part of the Fedora Project, I believe that the Ambassadors group has the largest variety of people. 15:14:10 * fugolini agrees 15:14:15 This is part of what makes the Ambassadors project valuable, but it also presents some challenges and that is something we'll talk about later. 15:14:31 lol @ inode0 150 years old 15:14:36 But now, I want to ask another question -- and I don't need all of you to answer or else we'll have chaos -- but I'd like a few people to answer. New folks. 15:14:48 What do you think the purpose and goals of something like Fedora Ambassadors is? 15:15:19 may I? 15:15:20 Promotion, Awareness. for starters. 15:15:22 To spread the good news that is Fedora ;) 15:15:24 to be an offical cheerleader for Fedora and Free Software 15:15:24 To spread Fedora all over the world 15:15:29 :) 15:15:36 What else? 15:15:41 fedora is there to provid solutions to problems that arise around the world in a clean way and best of all a free way 15:15:54 omg... cheerleader 15:15:57 spread the word, speak to people, bridge it back to the project 15:16:02 to show them the other side of operating systems 15:16:05 grow the contributor base 15:16:06 to recruit new contributors :) 15:16:18 Find new users and contributors, ready to join the wide development of a great community and a great system 15:16:21 * tatica will add that beyond spread, ambassadors must be an example 15:16:27 Fedora Ambassadors spread fedora and promote free and opensource software 15:16:34 to be the public face of fedora 15:16:39 ok -- those are all great answers -- and I've seen basically all of the words that I was waiting for in these answers. 15:16:44 to help people learn about fedora, its different teams , how the community works.. 15:16:46 you can't/must not spread what you don't do 15:16:49 Let me comment on a few of these answers. 15:17:52 Pretty much everything that folks said is correct -- but in my personal opinion, the #1 goal of Fedora Ambassadors is to be a friendly recruitment engine -- Fedora Ambassadors provide tremendous value in their ability to not only create new Fedora users -- but most importantly to *convert Fedora and Linux users* into Fedora *CONTRIBUTORS* 15:18:12 It is a fundamental rule of communities that any community which is not growing is doomed to stagnation and failure. 15:18:32 Fedora Ambassadors help make sure that the total Fedora contributor pool continues to grow and change. 15:19:12 promoting Fedora, spreading the word about Free Software and its value, and showing people the other options in computing are all part of that 15:19:28 and being the public face of Fedora at shows and conferences and schools is also part of it. 15:19:54 But one of the things that I always come back to is the fact that we need to be looking for people who want to also help contribute back to the community. 15:20:19 threethirty is a Fedora Ambassadors because of the folks he met at Ohio Linux Fest -- a show organized by Ambassadors, and that other Fedora folks like spot were also at doing Fedora stuff. 15:20:33 The fact that threethirty is in this classroom today is a perfect example of the success of Ambassadors. 15:20:42 * spevack pauses for a few minutes for comments or questions 15:21:18 I have something to add, since my experience as mentor now 15:21:26 go ahead 15:21:35 * kital wants to add that an ambassador also is an interface between the groups where he is involved 15:21:58 ambassadors act in- and outside 15:22:00 eof 15:22:14 ambassadors must have personal goals just next to make people use fedora and get more ambassadors. Sometimes ambassadors only try to recruit more ambassadors but we also need contributors to every team 15:22:16 #topic What is Fedora Ambassadors? 15:22:46 true but I must that sometimes there is a chalenge in holding these events in school.how sure are we that the message we are spreading is the same across the globe.i think the functions of an ambassador can not be ust said in a few words..we need to expound on this especaally to new members.maybe revise the fnctions in a good way 15:22:54 Two great points by tatica and kital -- and two points that we will probably discuss again later, but are worth mentioning again now. 15:22:56 that is apart from what is in the wiki 15:22:58 is an ambassador don't know how to contribute in anything, he must/should learn, so he/she can also encourage other people to help fedora and show that to the world 15:23:06 yes - perhaps to grow on that - it's also liaison between fp.o and other projects, and while not necessarily directly, but serendipitously growing the entire FLOSS ecosystem. For instance, we help zikula, and we both benefit. 15:23:18 (1) In many cases, Ambassadors are able to serve as the interaction between different parts of Fedora. 15:23:38 there is always a little time to do something more besides make an event or attend to one 15:23:39 eof 15:23:46 (2) Ambassadors need to be thinking about recruiting folks who can participate in ANY part of Fedora, not just other Ambassadors. Or else it's just a big pyramid scheme :) 15:23:57 ke4qqq: fp.o? 15:24:08 etank, fedoraproject.org 15:24:16 thanks jensm 15:24:29 ;) 15:24:53 #topic Interactions between Ambassadors and the rest of Fedora 15:25:06 I'd like to talk a little bit about this, and just share a few of my personal experiences 15:25:16 Since it was mentioned by kital, it's worth spending some time here. 15:25:21 .fas alukin 15:25:22 alukin: alukin 'Oleksiy Lukin' 15:25:52 Whenever I go to a Fedora event in my Ambassador role and talk to users or answer questions, here is what happens EVERY SINGLE TIME 15:26:13 * About 50% of the time, I know the answer to the question and I can show someone a link or send them away 100% happy RIGHT THEN. 15:26:31 * About 25% of the time, I have to write their question down, get their email address, and then send them the answer after I can find it myself. 15:26:51 Hi everybady! Today is eastern X-mas, so... Merry X-mas and Happy New Year! 15:26:56 * About 25% of the time, I have ZERO IDEA what the answer is, and I know that I'm going to need to talk to someone in a different part of Fedora in order to find out. 15:27:09 This last part is particularly important for Ambassadors, for two reasons: 15:27:19 Reason #1 -- It is OK to say "I don't know" 15:27:29 No one expects a Fedora Ambassador to be an expert about everything, all the time. 15:27:52 Reason #2 -- Fedora Ambassadors, as part of their job, need to *pay attention* to what is happening in different parts of the Fedora Project. 15:28:16 This way, you can always have a pretty general understanding of what is going on -- you can talk about the current release, you can talk about features that are in the next release, etc. 15:28:55 It's good to get to know other Fedora contributors in your region. If I'm at an event in Germany, for example, and someone has questions about packaging, I can point that person at Christoph Wickert and feel 100% confident that they will get the help they need. 15:29:02 15:29:32 (sidenote: we can't do everything, but we have a team that can) 15:29:46 Some Fedora Ambassadors are also very active in other parts of the project -- they are packagers, they are designers, they write documentation, etc. 15:30:30 IMHO it is importtant for ambassadors to be a some kind of bridge between users and developers? 15:30:35 spevack: +1 15:30:41 15:30:51 * spevack pauses for questions or comments, and to figure out from his notes what he wants to talk about next 15:31:09 it's important to know the people in the project, and in the region, so you can direct people to other people that are more experts on that theme 15:31:39 you have to learn to act as a team when you're at an event 15:31:55 +1 - at a minimum at least subscribe to fedora-advisory-bard mailing list - and try and get involved in at least one other area of fedora 15:31:57 and its important to ask questions, as many as you can. 15:32:13 s/bard/board/ 15:32:21 true, I know I still ask a lot of stupid questions :-) 15:32:24 a lot of folks dont ask questions because they're sort of scared of getting *flamed* 15:32:27 franciscod, that was one of the hardest things for me to get over 15:32:40 maybe the best thing an ambassador can do is to be a bridge between developers/designers/packagers and new contributors 15:32:51 i think you need to have a certain subset of social skills as an ambassador 15:33:04 slipp3d: :D 15:33:10 sspreitzer: +1 15:33:21 and some thick skin ... 15:33:29 slipp3d, +1 15:33:31 * inode0 wonders if he is in the wrong place now that social skills are required 15:33:35 slipp3d: thick skin is required in all open source projects :) 15:33:42 LOL@inode0 15:33:45 * ke4qqq was thinking along the same lines as inode0 15:33:52 heh 15:34:15 #topic What should you be paying attention to within Fedora? 15:34:41 Let's move on to this topic -- which will probably be a little bit shorter, but is worth mentioning. I'd like to involve some of our long-time Ambassadors in this topic as well. 15:34:48 My expirience shows that people need to know some person near them to ask questions and get answers so task of Ambassador to be the right person who can find answers 15:35:07 What are the things that you folks pay attention to, in order to keep up to speed with what's happening in Fedora, without it taking up your entire life 15:35:41 irc, and mailing lists - specifically #fedora-meeting and #fedora-ambassadors (though there are lots of other valuable chans) and..... 15:36:02 fedora-advisory-board and fedora-devel mailing lists are a nice place to start 15:36:04 IRC, mailing lists, the planet, FWN 15:36:14 +1 for the planet and FWN 15:36:15 #link http://planet.fedoraproject.org/ 15:36:19 the planet: every morning || the mailing lists || talk to other people on irc || the wiki about specific things 15:36:35 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN 15:36:41 FWN == Fedora Weekly News 15:36:55 and importantly , attending meets whenever possible, whether on the IRC or physically if time permits 15:37:02 #link http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board 15:37:18 #link http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-ambassadors-list 15:37:36 kital, tatica: anything you want to add? 15:37:47 yes 15:37:53 #link https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-india ;) 15:37:56 yes 15:38:03 go ahead :) 15:38:04 I'd like to point to sites like http://fedorasolved.org - it is very important to quicky find solution with quicky moving distro like Fedora 15:38:14 knowing the infrastructure that we use for communication and colaboration is imperative 15:38:20 alukin: +1 15:38:24 alukin: some of that is 'forbidden content' 15:38:32 +1 for fedorasolved.org 15:38:35 my personal experience is a little hard in this way. A lot of people come to me asking me a lot of stuff that most of the time I dont have a clue 15:38:48 i would add that following the docs and marketing lists are good too, keep up with drafts of release notes and publicly facing material 15:38:55 a lot of new fedorians just need someone to hold their hands and help them to work 15:38:58 if you can see where the buzz is going to be, you know what to research so you can talk more about it 15:39:03 The point is: not all things can be officially discussed on Fedora site, I mean proprietary drivers and so on... 15:39:11 ke4qqq: forbidden? please elaborate a little? 15:39:22 a good advice is to "let them think they are doing the things by their own" we are not gods to make everything for them 15:39:25 we are only a support 15:39:36 tatica: +1 15:39:36 so in my opinion every Ambassador should have something that could explain how we colaborate 15:39:37 +1 tatica 15:39:41 so we need to pay attention to this: 15:39:59 if we want great and active ambassadors, don't let them be lazy doing their task... 15:40:04 +1 kital 15:40:08 in my case it is a bit out of date ;) but maybe a good start for creating his own 15:40:15 http://jsimon.fedorapeople.org/fedora_comm.pdf 15:40:22 we all have compromises, and the other ambassadors has to, help them to help you but don't do their work 15:40:28 franciscod: come back to that question later on and we'll answer it -- i don't want to get side-tracked 15:40:41 kital: would you tell folks about what that pdf you just linked to is? 15:40:46 #link http://jsimon.fedorapeople.org/fedora_comm.pdf 15:40:51 spevack: aye 15:40:54 ke4qqq, it id "forbidden" only in USA but Ok in EU 15:40:56 alukin: yes - and as an ambassador you represent the distribution - which can't include them - it's important to know why we can't. 15:41:02 spevack: something that could explain how we colaborate 15:41:05 i found this quite a long time back 15:41:08 #link http://ankursinha.fedorapeople.org/misc/community.odp 15:41:08 alukin: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ForbiddenItems 15:41:14 probably very outdated 15:41:37 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Conduct <-- first point is important - you are Fedora 15:41:42 i agree some of these are realy outdated...have t be revised asap 15:41:47 spevack: but also a bit outdated and made for my purpose (german ...) 15:41:56 ke4qqq, sure I know that and I know why but the world is a bit bigger then USA :) 15:41:56 ke4qqq: understood, we use fedorasolved as a quick help at #fedora 15:42:03 franciscod: that's an old presentation that I wrote, about 2 years ago 15:42:18 spevack: i found it somewhere, still show it around to folks :D 15:42:24 franciscod: a lot of its ideas still apply, but the examples are a bit old. 15:42:35 franciscod: i'm glad it's been useful 15:42:44 Ok, to sum up this section a little bit and get us back on track: 15:42:55 There are obviously a TON of resources for Fedora Ambassadors 15:43:03 And we've linked to a lot of them here. 15:43:20 I want to take a moment though, to talk about the Fedora Marketing team a little bit. 15:43:32 Because there is a good overlap between Fedora Marketing and Fedora Ambassadors 15:43:44 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing 15:43:49 #link http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list 15:44:13 Earlier on in this session, someone made the excellent point that it is difficul to have a consistent message across different regions and languages worldwide. 15:44:21 This is 100% true. 15:44:59 Therefore, one of the things that we try to do in Fedora is to provide a *starting point* for people to have the right ideas and messages that we want to spread, and then allow folks to build their own talks around this core set of ideas. 15:45:10 Where do these core ideas come from? The Fedora Marketing team. 15:45:17 There are two links that I would like people to see: 15:45:36 actually, three links :) 15:45:41 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Foundations 15:46:19 This is the four foundations of the Fedora Project. For the last year or so, whenever I have given the "general what is Fedora about/introduction to Fedora" talk at an event, I have always made a point of talking about the four foundations. 15:46:54 These are pretty general 15:47:06 But we also have more specific resources for folks. 15:47:14 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/TalkingPoints 15:47:19 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_12_Talking_Points 15:47:26 The last link, in particular, I'd like to mention. 15:47:38 Every single release, the Fedora Marketing Team produces a list of "talking points" about the new release. 15:47:47 These are INCREDIBLY VALUABLE. 15:48:18 Back when I was the Fedora Project Leader -- and I know that Paul Frields is the same way as the current Fedora Project Leader -- a list like this helps a ton when we are doing interviews with the press about the new release. 15:48:26 And it can help every single Fedora Ambassador 15:48:34 to talk about some of the most interesting stuff in the release. 15:48:51 do you recommend that ambassadors run rawhide at some point before the new releases to have a better idea of what to come? if so how soon before the actual release is recommended. 15:49:00 You can see that we try to break it down into three categories -- things that everyone will like, things that sysadmins will like, and things that developers will like. 15:49:06 Because those tend to be our three main user buckets. 15:49:14 etank: good question. What do people think? 15:49:35 first of all -- can someone please tell everyone what Rawhide is? :) 15:49:44 development 15:49:44 do it in Virtual Box make life easy on yourself etank 15:49:49 you have to keep updated...always..but closer to relaease....say a month or so 15:49:55 threethirty: that was my thought too 15:49:58 etank: I generally start at the alpha - it's also helpful to help during test days with QA - it's genreally low hanging fruit - I run LiveCDs til Beta -and install at beta 15:50:01 rawhide is the latest stuff that the package maintainers push to the public 15:50:29 I think it's a matter of opinion, I don't run rawhide before the beta release, but if you run rawhide you have responsibilities like: reporting bugs, and having to deal with problem sometimes 15:50:34 note, that latest does *not* imply stable 15:50:45 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Rawhide 15:50:48 and problem can be annoying when you are running rawhide on a computer you don't want to break:P 15:51:01 It is 'fairly' stable on my macbook :) 15:51:13 that's why running it in a virtual instance can be so useful, biertie 15:51:24 hehe, touché 15:51:31 cwtucker: you've been lucky then :P rawhide is known to be "explosive" 15:52:03 franciscod, can be.. 15:52:06 etank: I think it's useful to have some knowledge of what is going on in Rawhide. 15:52:09 anyway, I don't think you HAVE to do it, but it can help you when you have to talk about a new release: you know what's in it 15:52:18 In the early part of a release cycle, maybe that is just knowing what the upcoming features are. 15:52:34 As we get closer to the alpha and beta -- I think that it's a good idea to actually have Rawhide running *somewhere*. 15:52:56 * franciscod uses beta and updates it to stable once the release package is updated 15:52:57 Especially at an event -- I think it's nice to be able to show someone "here is the current version of Fedora" and "here is the development version that will become the next release." 15:53:20 it gives an Ambassador a chance to explain a bit about how Fedora's releases work, etc. 15:53:28 +1 spevack 15:53:30 15:53:34 that was my thought too spevack 15:53:53 One of the things that I always try to do, whenever I have a conversation about Fedora with someone new -- is to ask a lot of questions, and try to figure out what that person cares the most about. 15:54:06 Then I will talk to that person about whatever part of the Fedora Project is also working on the same thing. 15:54:45 And try to help the person to see that there are a bunch of people RIGHT NOW working as a team on the sorts of things that this person cares about, and it's easy to go and help them. 15:54:57 15:54:58 15:55:04 Ok -- any other questions or comments right now? 15:55:10 * spevack pauses for a moment to rest his fingers 15:55:21 yeah 15:55:28 can I suggest a link about marketing ? 15:55:34 go for it 15:55:50 #link http://blog.melchua.com/2009/12/24/whats-marketing-doing-for-f13-anyway-a-show-with-dancing-penguins/ 15:55:53 * fugolini needs to go. Thank you for this amazing lecture. I'll be glad to read the log of what will come next. Thank you Max for this wonderfull job! 15:55:53 I think it is good for us then to advice pple to run that rawhide on virtual machine... 15:56:12 fugolini: see you soon! 15:57:00 15:57:08 #topic Regional structure of Fedora Ambassadors 15:57:15 We have about 30 minutes left 15:57:37 And I think it's time to talk for a bit about how a project as large and spread out as Fedora Ambassadors actually works. 15:57:55 * sspreitzer needs to liftoff in 30 mins, plane boarding 15:58:03 And the honest answer is that there is a little bit of chaos -- but we try to make sure that the chaos is organized, and regional :) 15:58:34 The fedora-ambassadors-list is the global list for all Ambassadors 15:59:05 But we have regional meetings, where the Ambassadors from the same general area are able to discuss their local issues, organize their activities, and pool their resources. 15:59:09 * spevack goes to paste some links. 15:59:24 ke4qqq, inode0, kital, tatica -- you guys can jump in with any comments that you have 15:59:54 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Meetings 16:00:18 Can I jump in with anything I have? 16:00:24 sure 16:00:54 OK, just go on, I do not want to interrupt :) 16:00:58 The key point I want to make is that it is *ESSENTIAL* that you attend the meeting for your region, because that is where almost all of the decisions are made. 16:01:47 The Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee is sort of the oversight group of Ambassadors -- but they don't tell folks what events to go to, or how to spend their budget. Mostly we try to give complete decision making to the regions -- and most of that work is done in the local meetings. 16:01:57 Anyone -- feel free to jump in with what you want to say. 16:02:01 MohammedSafwat: go ahead 16:02:42 we're trying to hold fortnightly meets at #fedora-india, been on schedule so far. the attendance has been steadily increasing :) 16:03:26 franciscod: where are those meetings being advertised? 16:03:42 LATAM... latam... Latam is starting to grow up. Is not a secret to anyone that Brasil is the point of attention at this moment and maybe since ever. Our goal is to be more involved into everything 16:03:43 spevack: generally the fedora-india mailing list
