The purpose of this page is to catalog our processes for producing Fedora media worldwide.
General process
Funds for Fedora media come from the FAmSCo budget.
NA
User:Herlo has been handling the media production with Advanced Media Solutions for the past few releases.
The NA regional ambassadors decide what quantities and flavors of media they want, and Red Hat pays for it with either a purchase order or a credit card.
We make one giant batch of media for all of NA, and then ship it as needed to regional ambassadors in the USA and Canada.
LATAM
We need to clarify and define a process that not only gets media created and paid for, but also distributed throughout the region.
Previously, media was created by User:Rodrigop using a printer that was purchased by Red Hat, but this is pretty slow and limited in its reach.
EMEA
For the last several releases, the media was produced in Munich, with one of the folks in Red Hat's marketing team handling the details with the local media production company.
We're going to make this process more community-friendly starting with Fedora 13. User:Sspreitzer has volunteered to be the main point of contact between Fedora and the media company in Munich. Red Hat will continue to pay for the media using a purchase order, so that the Fedora contributors don't have to handle any money.
Here are the specific steps:
- We start by introducing User:Sspreitzer to the folks at the media production company, and clarify exactly what they need from us in order to make an order, and how much time they need to produce it. We make it clear that Red Hat is still paying directly. In progress.
- EMEA Ambassadors determine the different spins and quantities that we want to produce.
- We provide the media company with ISOs and artwork, as well as a list of shipping addresses and quantities.
- Red Hat's EMEA marketing opens the purchase order and charges it to the Community Architecture expenses.
India
We need to clarify and define a process that not only gets media created and paid for, but also distributed throughout the region.
APAC
We need to clarify and define a process that not only gets media created and paid for, but also distributed throughout the region.
