I'm including that list in this reply to spread the word there, and hopefully any Ambassadors in the London area might be interested.

I work in London, and was even at an event at Code Node a few weeks ago.

I'd be happy to do a talk of some nature.

My specialities are the dev ops world (puppet and ansible in particular) and recently tuning for low latency trading.

What might be equally interesting could be one of the articles from my blog adapted for a presentation style audience... I'm thinking the RPM building one (which someone notified me was linked in cron.weekly today) or the more recent "a day in the life of a Fedora packager" which I'm adapting for Fedora Magazine.

I'll be out the country at the June meet, but July is a definite possibility.
