Specifications for a System for Ensuring Quality of Ambassadors

The immediate motivation can be traced to this thread in the ambassadors mailing list. There is a need to ensure that ambassadors are aware about current trends, and are in the know about how the Fedora ecosystem relates to the FOSS and external worlds. Mentoring can help in better organisation and implementation of proposed activities. But is less useful for the former goal.

An ambassador can be expected to be in the know about all of the following:

Linux and Fedora Basics
FOSS, OSS and Proprietary Licenses
Freedoms guaranteed by Fedora
Packages included and Packaging in Fedora
Comparison with Other Linux and Unix distributions
Difference between Fedora Versions
Work flow in the Fedora Ecosystem
Why proprietary software is evil?
FOSS adoption vs OSS adoption 
Recent and Proposed Changes, and lots more
