Final Request for Information: Budget Numbers and Delegates
by Remy DeCausemaker
Ambassadors,
As some of you may have noticed by now, the new Budget site for Fedora
has been pushed to Production!
Production: http://budget.fedoraproject.org
Source: http://pagure.io/fedora-websites
This site is part of the new Budget.next process you may recall from
emails previously on this list:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Budget.next
In keeping with the process there, I'm gathering all the information
needed to comply with our revised policies. This email is a *final*
request for three (3) items of information we need from each region:
FY16 Budget Report
FY17 Budget Proposed
FY17 Regional Delegates
Here is what we have had reported thusfar:
APAC
--------
- FY16 Budget Report:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/APAC/Budget:2016
- FY17 Budget Proposed: _____
- FY17 Regional Delegates: ______
LATAM
---------
- FY16 Budget Report:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/LATAM/Budget:2016
- FY17 Budget Proposed:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/LATAM/Budget:2017
- FY17 Regional Delegates: _____
NA
----
- FY16 Budget Report: _______
- FY17 Budget Proposed: _______
- FY17 Regional Delegate Selections: https://budget.fedoraproject.org/#delegates
EMEA
---------
- FY16 Budget Report:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11nWHrooCwoiWqGx4iEUnITQAWwQrQ6_2i...
- FY17 Budget Proposed:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IAt2udlv-gwTjUYfhqvNOnwL_1FH_NC4A...
- FY17 Regional Delegates: _________
Please be sure that the links above reflect the latest information for
your region, as we will be using it to determine the
soon-to-be-released Fedora Budget for FY17.
Without having a FY17 Proposed Budget (let alone a completed FY16
Budget Report from last year) it will be difficult to decide how much
budget to allocate to your region in FY17. Regions without proposed
and reported budgets run the risk of having their budgets allocated
centrally by the council until in compliance with the process. This is
*not* the preferred or ideal method of budgeting, and would be an
unnecessary burden on both the council and the regions.
It is possible that I have either misplaced your responses, or have
not looked in the correct places where this information is
historically tracked, so if your region's information is missing,
please accept my apologies and respond here on the ambassador list
with updated links and/or information.
In the future, we will be utilizing a repository on Pagure to track
budget and delegate information. We have discussed the possibility of
using this repository to automatically update the Budget site in
production, but for now, consider it a static repository of documents
and data.
https://pagure.io/budget
Thank you all for your patience as we transition into this new era of
budget transparency. It is my hope that we can stay on top of the
process this year, streamline the reporting requirements, and thereby
streamline the reimbursement process, while improving information
access to everyone in Fedora :)
Looking Forward,
--RemyD.

Golden chance to translate Fedora 24 in your language
by Jona Azizaj
Out of the six billion people in the world, only 339 million have English as a first language. The importance of English in global business increases the number of English speakers, but the people learning are taking English on as a second language. A notable number of users prefer products in their own language. In the Fedora Globalization (G11n) group, we are making this happen. The efforts are huge, and kudos to all our contributors.If you are a non-English user in Fedora and want to help improve translations in your native language, this is your time to contribute! A virtual Fedora translation sprint is coming up soon for Fedora 24 GUI applications.
Although it is a virtual event, if there are more contributors at a single location, they can gather together at an available place and work together.If any Ambassadors have this plan, please contact the G11n list with your requirements.
The translation sprint is happening according to the Fedora 24 schedule. There is a good chance to get your own contributions into Fedora 24!
So what are you waiting for? The vFAD is starting from April 1 – 5, 2016. Not sure how to contribute? Have a look at our new article published on the CommBlog.> https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/translate-fedora-24-in-your-langu...
Thanks :)

[APAC] Ambassador's meeting
by P J P
Hello,
Past few fortnightly meetings have gone quite dud.
If the current time does not work for us all, let's
please meet this Saturday to find a better time that
suits us all. There are other topics too on the agenda.
Thank you.
