Folks,
I have been thinking about what makes us look so awfully event'centric, while we have so many other things going, like the Free Media, Word of Mouth, Sponsored Media, and other exciting projects going on?
So here is the solution:
From now on, before reviewing the events, and right after the Famsco
update in the Ambassadors meeting, there will be a section dedicated to project reports, in which people belonging to the particular project can report on their activity.
This will help us know what is going on besides the events, and also to hold the Ambassadors accountable for the projects they run, so we can assure excellence of all our projects.
See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Schedule for the new Schedule item, and add your own project to the list!
Cheers, a

BUT, members of our project are participating in these efforts, so why shouldn't they tell our fellow Ambassadors about their activities?
It is good to see initiatives coming out of our project grow to become independent projects of their own!
Cheers, a

That is definetely a very good news. I have several *activities* that I would like to be recognized as Ambassador activities, like the translation of the FWN, the management of the French Community website and a project I have to create a French podcast like Fedora Reloaded.
We will have future occasions to talk about this later again I think :)
Regards
Yepp Thomas, absolutely! Simply build a wiki page for your activity/initiative and add a link to it and your name to the Schedule.
Thanks, a

A French community could be great, but isn't really an Ambassadors thing - in fact, I don't really see it as a Marketing thing, either. Maybe you could start your own Fedora French project?

Why split up a project while we can all benefit from learning from each other and help each other out?
Thomas, as long as you are helping spread the word about Fedora, and compy with Ambassadors guidelines and such, there is absolutely no need to split your initiatives away from the larger project! Your contributions are always welcome. a

Imagine just my splitting major projects The Fedora Project will count thousands of mini projects in the end. Hence hard to present or count or even remember by Ambassadors.

Once again, let us not bicker over technicalieties. We need to get stuff done, not figure out a constitution or found a new nation! :)
A little bit of improv. here and there, and a bit of spontaneity and tolerance will make us only richer for it.
Thanks all, Alex

I don't seem to have got the original message, so I don't know if there was more.
I started Word Of Mouth, as a sub-project of ambassadors, as a result of ambassadors being too event-centric. I feel that this will mean that ambassadors being about events/lugs too much will then not be a problem, and will actually mean that the main ambassadors project can focus more on events.
As for Distribution, even though it has started off because of Sponsored Media (which was an idea by several ambassadors), I don't feel they're related anymore.
