It's not that we don't support the international community, but it is a common language for the small number of contributors we have. We are, of course, interested in spreading Fedora all over the world, however, the financial backing for marketing is limited. You may be able to get limited sponsorship for something like a FUDCon. Funding for other marketing materials simply isn't there yet. Fedora Marketing is in its early stages, so it may be a while before we can do that sort of marketing. We are planning on producing marketing kits and finding marketing contacts around the world. If you are interested, that's great. You should watch this list and perhaps stop in and listen to our weekly meetings. We don't have a solid process for translation, yet, and we haven't yet produced any CD labels, pamplets, or shirts. We will welcome your assistance in marketing, but we're still just getting started. As long as you follow the Trademark Guidlines posted at fedora.redhat.com, you are welcome to produce marketing materials of your own in the meantime. We're glad you've chosen Fedora as a venue to participate in the open source community. Please check out the pages at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ including the HelpWanted page for more information about how you can participate in the various Fedora subprojects. You are welcome to create your own CDs or order them from an online vendor in order to distribute them. Unfortunately, we cannot provide any funding for that effort. Handing out CD-Rs with Fedora at your college would be great. Work is also being done on a LiveCD project. If you'd like to give that a try, it would be a great way to introduce others to Fedora. They can just pop 1 CD in and boot Fedora to try it out. Check out http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LiveCD for more information.
