@bex, thanks for setting me straight on all this. I do appreciate all

the board does. And I am new compared to everyone else. I should just
continue to go with the flow for a while until I truly understand the
structure and methods of the Project as a whole.
And I truly appreciate the RH people and their individual contribution to
the Project.
I sure wish more experienced Ambassador folk could chime in here and let
me observe and learn a bit more.
This last sentence is the one I think summarizes where we are so much. Our
experienced ambassadors aren't helping our new ambassadors grow which led
to the system collapsing. You have done some amazing events in the US and
I look forward to reading more of those tickets :)

Can you show me where funding tickets for significant events was declined
when those events were good for Fedora? There is even a procedure for
large events:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/mindshare-committee/large-events/
It even starts with, "While anyone can hold or attend a large
Fedora-related event, these events are typically done by experienced Fedora
contributors and or existing Fedora Ambassadors. "

While I've been on Mindshare, our focus has been about impact, not
dollars. If you are self-selecting away from big events because you can't
justify the budget relative to the impact, that feels right. If you're
refusing to ask for funding above an arbitrary level, that is a decision
you made, not the project.

... and the mindshare tickets show it is. RH employment isn't a factor for
this money, period. In fact, the big event ticket that is currently open
from a person who happens to be an RH employee is not approved because they
aren't providing the information we request of everyone.

First, of the 8 people listed on Mindshare, five (5) are not employed by RH
and three (3) are. This is far from an RH controlled body. This is
Fedora, we don't do that here.
Second, Mindshare was started as a way of solving hte inability of
ambassadors to approve budgets which was blocking events. Mindshare is
approving tickets. Your tickets have been approved. I really don't
understand where you are coming from here.

Hi everyone<br>
<br>
Perhaps this is not news anymore but it seems the relevance of the<br>
Ambassadors Programme is in doubt.=C2=A0 There is a Mindshare Ticket

Have you seen it?=C2=A0 What are your thoughts?=C2=A0 Are we jaded?<br>

Say something ... here, there.<br>
Perhaps I am hanging on to an old concept -- the nostalgia must have<br>

Hey Onyeibo, thx for stepping up.<br>
<br>
I've tried to put my input into the ticket as much as possible.
I'm=
<br>
currently working on a couple of small strategies to reach out to those<br>
inactive Ambassadors and get their perspective, tho I don't have that
m=
uch<br>
free time this week.<br>
<br>
It's part of the IT nature that some things come and go in different
ti=
mes,<br>
however, this particular initiative, at least for me, represents the<br>
highlight of what being a top contributor should be. I'll keep trying
t=
o<br>
put my energy into the success of this Team, in hope that new and old<br>
ambassadors reactivate.<br>
<br>
>From my point of view, it's just a burn down of the program, and
pr=
obably<br>
this can be a great opportunity for, instead shut the program down,<br>
reinvigorate it.<br>
<br>
Hoping to hear from more of you.<br>
