Fedora Ambassadors Steering Committee Election 2008: Nominations

Candidates may be any member of the Ambassadors group in the Fedora Accounts System. This helps ensure FAmSCo members have some experience with the processes of Fedora Ambassadors but still allows relatively new contributors to sit on FAmSCo and bring fresh ideas to the table.

Nominations are open from 28 October through 3 December, 2008. The elections will take place 7 December through 20 December, 2008.

You may self-nominate. If you wish to nominate someone else, please consult with that person ahead of time. Wiki nomination pages carry additional details about the nominee which the nominee is expected to write.

One of my main goals as a FAmSCo member is to help all Fedora Ambassadors achieve their best contributions and build up Fedora's presence in many underrepresented Regions.

  • Contributor profile

In 2006 i started to support the Fedora Community actively as a Fedora Ambassador. I dedicated and will still dedicate a large part of my time to the Ambassador Membership Service, where i guide new Contributors as a sponsor and mentor into the Fedora Project and the other day-to-day Job is to maintain the ambassador-mailing-list as Administrator. To increase the Quality of the Ambassador Membership Process, i have developed and helped FAmSCo to establish the new approval process. On my way as Ambassador, i initiated a few things which today are essential parts within Fedora Ambassadors, like the AmbassadorPolo or the well known generic Posterdesigns from MairinDuffy. Promoting Fedora on Events is another major part of a Ambassador and so i work as organizer, driver, helper, slogger, promoter on a lot Events every year. There are a few more things what i do, like trying new MarketingMaterials producing SWAG for us - or work as PressOfficer for the Fedora EMEA e.V.or help as one of the few Fedora in Library Activists.

  • Future plans
  • Enhance Fedora´s presence in underrepresented Regions - this means in a short timeframe: support the ReleaseEvent in Kyrgyzstan as a trailblazer (T-Shirts, Money...) - organize Fedora´s Presence on a Event in Hungary in Spring 2009. On a longterm, turn more and more of the white spaces on the worldmap into blue.
  • Improve the MembershipProcess to make it easier and faster to contribute and work together with higher quality
  • Establish real mentoring within regional requirements
  • Establish measurability for our Work
  • Establish liasons to other subprojects
  • Invent new ways to encourage people to contribute to the Fedora Project
