| herlo | wonderer|chatzil: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Classroom#Suggest_a_Class | 12:30 |
|---|---|---|
| spevack | hi everyone | 12:30 |
| franciscod | spevack: hi.. | 12:30 |
| @nirik | not much of a break there, but we are ready with the next class... take it away spevack! | 12:30 |
| linuxguru | hello spevack | 12:30 |
| vartsu_ | hi | 12:30 |
| heftig | hi | 12:30 |
| wonderer|chatzil | hy spevack. | 12:30 |
| spevack | thanks nirik | 12:30 |
| sherry151 | hello | 12:30 |
| zubair | linuxguru, the documents will be added on the fedora project? | 12:30 |
| linuxguru | zubair, yes. | 12:30 |
| spevack | greetings to all -- i see a few irc nicks that I don't recognize, which is good, since this class is meant in particular for folks who are relatively new to Fedora | 12:31 |
| zubair | linuxguru, when | 12:31 |
| spevack | I'd like to welcome everyone to the Ambassador Tips & Training session of Fedora classroom. I'm your professor, Max Spevack. If you want to know a bit about me, feel free to check out my Fedora user page -- https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MaxSpevack | 12:31 |
| wonderer|chatzil | :-) | 12:31 |
| spevack | My hope is that this session will be interactive, so please don't be shy about asking any questions as they come up. The total number of Fedora Ambassadors has grown 30% in the last six months, so the purpose of this hour is to make sure that any new Ambassadors who have joined the project understand how Fedora Ambassadors works, what your local resources are, and how you can be an effective member of this community. | 12:31 |
| * spevack has a bit of pre-prepared material that he can just paste in :) | 12:31 | |
| zer0c00l | :-) | 12:32 |
| * sseiersen is a new ambassador. | 12:32 | |
| spevack | sseiersen: where are you located? | 12:32 |
| sseiersen | Maryland, USA | 12:32 |
| spevack | cool | 12:32 |
| spevack | Let's start by outlining the most important functions of Fedora Ambassadors. | 12:32 |
| spevack | (in no particular order) | 12:32 |
| spevack | (1) Fedora Ambassadors are often the "public face" of Fedora in their region, country, or city. | 12:32 |
| * wonderer|chatzil seems to be a senior-ambassador with some questions ;-), located in germany, europewide experience ;-) | 12:32 | |
| spevack | Fedora Ambassadors organize the events in which people are exposed to Fedora, and learn about the values of the Fedora Project -- freedom, friends, features, first. I'll talk more later about the unique role that Ambassadors have in bringing the values of Fedora to the general public. | 12:33 |
| RocknRoll | hi guys | 12:33 |
| spevack | hi | 12:33 |
| spevack | welcome | 12:33 |
| spevack | (2) Fedora Ambassadors are one of the most important means of recruiting new contributors. | 12:33 |
| RocknRoll | hello | 12:33 |
| * sseiersen has a question | 12:34 | |
| spevack | sseiersen: please ask it | 12:34 |
| RocknRoll | guys i heard fedora class is going on | 12:34 |
| RocknRoll | is it? | 12:34 |
| sseiersen | Would it be alright to copy the log and turn it into a PDF guide for the wiki? | 12:34 |
| @nirik | RocknRoll: right this very second. ;) | 12:34 |
| spevack | sseiersen: funny that you should mention that | 12:35 |
| spevack | because one of the projects that is currently just starting up in Ambassadors is the creation of a training guide | 12:35 |
| sseiersen | Really? | 12:35 |
| sseiersen | I'd be glad to help later. | 12:35 |
| spevack | and I expect that some of the content from these classes will help inform the layout of that guide | 12:36 |
| mahesh | training guide? | 12:36 |
| spevack | sseiersen: are you on fedora-ambassadors-list? | 12:36 |
| sseiersen | Yes. | 12:36 |
| spevack | mahesh: yes, there's a current project underway to put together a 10 or 15 page guide to "how to be a fedora ambassador" | 12:36 |
| spevack | furthermore, this is the second time that I've given this IRC class | 12:36 |
| mahesh | spevack : fine | 12:37 |
| spevack | and my preparations for today involved reviewing the log from last time and rewriting some of that material in a way that makes better sense | 12:37 |
| spevack | so the point is that yes -- i think it's very important that we not let things like this just disappear | 12:37 |
| spevack | but that we collect up Ambassador tips & best practices and help codify that and educate | 12:37 |
| mahesh | spevack : yes for sure | 12:37 |
| spevack | one of the challenges that we face in Fedora Ambassadors is the incredibly diverse nature of that part of the Fedora community | 12:37 |
| spevack | sseiersen, you've probably already seen it on fedora-ambassadors-list | 12:38 |
| spevack | there are people on that list from all over the world, and I think that list more than many others in Fedora. That poses a few interesting organizational challenges and decisions, which I will also get in to a bit more later. | 12:38 |
| sseiersen | Think I did, thought it would be good to bring up. | 12:38 |
| spevack | For the moment, I want to get back to my informal list of what I consider the most important roles that Fedora Amabassadors fill | 12:39 |
| sherry151 | http://issuu.com/borchi24/docs/fedora_quickguide_v1 | 12:39 |
| sherry151 | this is as far as it goes till now.. | 12:39 |
| spevack | As already mentioned, (1) is often being the public face of Fedora. | 12:39 |
| spevack | (2) Fedora Ambassadors are one of the most important means of recruiting new contributors. | 12:39 |
| spevack | Personal interaction is one of the most important parts of community building, and Fedora Ambassadors provide that far better than an IRC session or a mailing list can. The importance of personal interaction is also one of the reasons why FUDCons and FADs are so important to Fedora. | 12:39 |
| SSlater | FAD? | 12:40 |
| sseiersen | Fedora Activity Day | 12:40 |
| SSlater | k | 12:40 |
| spevack | FUDCon = Fedora User and Developer Conference | 12:40 |
| spevack | FAD = Fedora Activity Day | 12:40 |
| * spevack digs up links | 12:40 | |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon | 12:41 |
| spevack | FUDCon is the Fedora Users and Developers Conference. FUDCon is a combination of sessions, talks, workshops, and hackfests in which contributors work on specific initiatives. Topics include infrastructure, feature development, community building, general management and governance, marketing, testing and QA, packaging, etc. | 12:41 |
| spevack | 12:41 | |
| spevack | 12:41 | |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FAD | 12:41 |
| spevack | The Fedora Activity Day (FAD) is a regional event (either one-day or a multi-day) that allows Fedora contributors to gather together in order to work on specific tasks related to the Fedora Project. | 12:41 |
| spevack | Originally, these meetings were used for local Fedora Ambassador groups to make their plans for the coming year, but the idea is being expanded to bring local contributors together in order to work on any projects related to Fedora, and (if so desired) to organize some sort of social event or to hold the event in an interesting location. | 12:41 |
| spevack | 12:41 | |
| spevack | 12:41 | |
| * spevack pauses for a moment to let people read | 12:41 | |
| spevack | Setting aside Fedora Ambassadors for a moment | 12:42 |
| spevack | and talking about the general challenge of building a strong Fedora community overall | 12:42 |
| spevack | my experience has shown me that it is almost impossible to over-value what personal interaction brings to the community | 12:42 |
| spevack | People who work together on IRC and email all year spend a few days together at a FUDCon, and the energy and excitement that people tend to leave with towards Fedora is so strong, that you can feel it in the air. | 12:43 |
| spevack | Fedora Ambassadors can provide that same sort of energy, in smaller and more frequent local doses. | 12:44 |
| spevack | In fact, I'm teaching this Fedora Classroom session from the office of one of our Fedora contributors in the Netherlands, because we had a meeting of about 10 Dutch Fedora contributors earlier today, and they were discussing some of their goals for Fedora in the Netherlands. | 12:44 |
| spevack | Not speaking Dutch myself, my role today was to show up with tshirts, shake a few hands, and buy some beers :) | 12:45 |
| cjg | grolsch? | 12:45 |
| spevack | cjg: and others :) | 12:45 |
| spevack | 12:45 | |
| SSlater | yummm | 12:45 |
| spevack | Moving on.... | 12:45 |
| spevack | (3) Fedora Ambassadors are the folks who implement the strategy that Fedora Marketing develops. | 12:46 |
| spevack | It's important to realize that there is a lot of sharing between Fedora Ambassadors and Fedora Marketing. Neither team can be successful without the other. One of the biggest mistakes I see Fedora Ambassadors make is when they fail to realize that being an Ambassador requires more than just being willing to stand behind the booth at an event. | 12:46 |
| spevack | How many people within the sight of my voice have ever attended a Fedora Marketing meeting? | 12:46 |
| wonderer|chatzil | me | 12:46 |
| mahesh | me once | 12:46 |
| * quaid | 12:46 | |
| inode0 | ?me | 12:47 |
| inode0 | for some defn of attended :) | 12:47 |
| spevack | so for those of you who have not, I'd encourage you to give it a try. Come to 2 or 3 meetings and see whether or not they add to your understanding of the broader picture that Fedora is trying to paint to the public. | 12:47 |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_meetings | 12:48 |
| spevack | Fedora Marketing meetings are on Tuesdays at 2100 UTC | 12:48 |
| * herlo has | 12:48 | |
| spevack | The best Ambassadors are students of every part of Fedora. Because you never know who you will meet at an event, Ambassadors need to be familiar with the active goals and roadmap of many different parts of Fedora. You need to be familiar with the key features that are being developed in Rawhide. You need to know what the Websites team is doing. You need to be able to explain the general process around packaging software into Fedora, etc. | 12:48 |
| spevack | this is a really important point. | 12:49 |
| spevack | *anyone* can hand out a CD or a tshirt. But the "stickiness" of that activity is small | 12:49 |
| spevack | maybe the person will install Fedora | 12:49 |
| spevack | maybe they won't. | 12:49 |
| mahesh | how to track these rawhide and website team activities | 12:49 |
| quaid | FWN++ | 12:49 |
| quaid | Fedora Planet++ | 12:49 |
| spevack | quaid makes an excellent point. | 12:49 |
| StabbyMc_ | spevack ! | 12:50 |
| spevack | StabbyMc_: let me make my point about FWN and Planet, then i'll get to your comment | 12:50 |
| spevack | Fedora Weekly News and Planet Fedora are the two most painless ways to keep up a broad general knowledge of what is happening in Fedora. | 12:50 |
| spevack | Fedora Weekly News is delivered every Monday to Fedora Announce List, and also to the wiki | 12:50 |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FWN/LatestIssue | 12:51 |
| spevack | http://planet.fedoraproject.org is our blogroll | 12:51 |
| spevack | and it is a very important piece of our community. | 12:51 |
| spevack | StabbyMc_: please go ahead | 12:51 |
| StabbyMc_ | If the expectation for Ambassadors is that they attend Fedora Marketing meetings, run Rawhide, are up on all the roadmap features, and hold events, that needs to be on the Fedora Ambassadors page instead of the current "do what you want" message. | 12:51 |
| spevack | StabbyMc_: a fair point. I would say that I don't expect every ambassador to do ALL of those things. | 12:52 |
| spevack | two comments from me | 12:52 |
| spevack | first, your point is a good one, and I would go further to say that most of the "introductory" | 12:52 |
| spevack | material under the Ambassadors section of the wiki | 12:52 |
| spevack | needs to be totally rewritten. | 12:52 |
| spevack | I wish I had the time to do more of that myself, but I don't. | 12:52 |
| spevack | so it will continue to happen bit by bit | 12:52 |
| spevack | or perhaps an enterprising individual will take some of the points I make in these sessions and refresh the material :) | 12:53 |
| spevack | the second point | 12:53 |
| spevack | and StabbyMc_ you give me a perfect lead into it | 12:53 |
| spevack | is to emphasize the importance of Ambassadors forming together to build local teams | 12:53 |
| StabbyMc_ | spevack: it's as though you pay me. | 12:53 |
| spevack | StabbyMc_: :) | 12:53 |
| spevack | Looking at the best events all over the world -- whether they are in NA or Europe or wherever, the events that are most successful | 12:54 |
| spevack | are ones in which a team of 3-5 ambassadors comes together to fill all the different roles. | 12:54 |
| spevack | What are the sorts of roles that need to be filled at an event? | 12:54 |
| spevack | I'm glad you asked! | 12:54 |
| spevack | (1) Logistical | 12:54 |
| spevack | Getting space, having swag, knowing who is coming, registering for talkst, etc. The "manager" of the event. | 12:54 |
| spevack | (2) Manning the booth -- | 12:55 |
| spevack | this is where you're going to want to have one or two people who are up to date on a lot of the most recent stuff going on in fedora | 12:55 |
| spevack | because you'll get random questions about the current release, etc. | 12:55 |
| spevack | (3) Speeches. | 12:55 |
| spevack | I am a firm believer that Fedora should try to have a speech at every event we attend. | 12:56 |
| quaid | ! | 12:56 |
| spevack | I could (and probably should) give an entirely separate class about my own ideas on how to deliver a speech that effectively delivers the Fedora message. | 12:56 |
| spevack | quaid: please go ahead | 12:56 |
| spevack | in fact, any long-time ambassadors who have comments or want to add to what I'm saying, please jump in | 12:57 |
| mahesh | spevack : yes for sure | 12:57 |
| quaid | do you still, in your mind :), connect speeches with how much budget should be spent on an event | 12:57 |
| quaid | that is, the more Fedora does there (special booths, talks, etc.), the more we want to spend there, attract resources, etc.? | 12:57 |
| wonderer|chatzil | ! | 12:57 |
| spevack | quaid: yes, i do | 12:57 |
| spevack | quaid: do you think that is right, or incomplete? | 12:57 |
| spevack | wonderer|chatzil: please go ahead | 12:58 |
| wonderer|chatzil | I also think speeches and talks are very important. But there are many events wich does not cost much and many ambassadors are from around. | 12:58 |
| quaid | spevack: I think that was unclear to some(?) NA regional coordinators; is that spelled out on a page, e.g., ranges of budget spending to how many activities Fedora does? As guidelines, that is. | 12:59 |
| wonderer|chatzil | so, travel and accomondation does not cost much. So there are many enthusiastic evangelists around. | 12:59 |
| spevack | wonderer|chatzil: to be clear, I am thinking about mid-size events and larger. For example FOSDEM -- I would have considered FOSDEM a waste of time without our devroom in which we were able to give a whole bunch of Fedora speeches. That room was packed almost non-stop | 12:59 |
| wonderer|chatzil | ok | 12:59 |
| spevack | quaid: noted. For better or worse, I try not to impose too many strict requirements on event organizers | 13:00 |
| spevack | but that doesn't stop me from expressing my personal preferences :) | 13:01 |
| spevack | i see some chatter in #fedora-ambassadors -- inode0, herlo, quaid -- anything that you guys want to add here? | 13:01 |
| herlo | spevack: suer | 13:01 |
| * sseiersen has comment | 13:02 | |
| spevack | sseiersen: shoot | 13:02 |
| sseiersen | Should we talk with the documentation team about the Ambassador guide? | 13:02 |
| sseiersen | Get some assistance? | 13:02 |
| herlo | my thoughts are these, the requirements you put on an ambassador are large, and while it may seem insurmountable at first, we're not looking to make everyone do everything, just having a rounded knowledge is best. And that does take a little time | 13:02 |
| spevack | sseiersen: I'd defer to quaid on that. My initial thought would be that we should first try to figure out a general outline and get some content together, and the docs guys can probably help us formalize and professionalize what we're trying to do | 13:03 |
| spevack | herlo: that's a really good point | 13:03 |
| herlo | the thing is, give it a little bit of time and you'll be an expert. it really doesn't take much time at all to get up to speed, it's more about dedication... | 13:03 |
| herlo | and we're to help you grow | 13:03 |
| spevack | and if I'm coming across as too strong, I apologize for that. It's definitely a process. The first thing for an Ambassador to do is come to an event and just meet folks and watch how we operate. | 13:04 |
| spevack | you'll find your niche soon enough | 13:04 |
| spevack | like i said -- personal interaction is key | 13:04 |
| herlo | spevack: I have one more comment if that's okay | 13:04 |
| spevack | herlo: shoot | 13:05 |
| herlo | StabbyMc_ just mentioned that right now he has extra time to learn, and he suggested some milestones to accomplish. I think something like this is great. If you are a new ambassador and want to help define those milestones, that's what the process is all about. If you have time to learn, you can help define what those milestones should be for a new ambassador to get up to speed... | 13:06 |
| herlo | and in the process, we all learn... | 13:06 |
| * herlo is done | 13:06 | |
| * fozzmoo thinks herlo is never done. | 13:06 | |
| * RocknRoll i am totally free now | 13:06 | |
| spevack | Let me try to articulate one of the points that I want to make in a slightly different way. | 13:07 |
| spevack | And that is this: | 13:07 |
| spevack | Take any random Fedora Ambassador. | 13:07 |
| spevack | kanarip is a great example | 13:07 |
| spevack | he's an engineer, a packager, etc. | 13:07 |
| spevack | he does a variety of different things within Fedora, and "abassador" is just one of the roles that he fills | 13:07 |
| spevack | I think that the most successful events and regional ambassador teams are ones that recognize that it is IMPOSSIBLE for one person to know everything about Fedora | 13:08 |
| spevack | and therefore are able to prioritize their most important events, and use those as magnets to bring | 13:08 |
| spevack | various fedora contributors together. | 13:08 |
| spevack | Take me for instance | 13:08 |
| spevack | I gave a speech at FOSDEM a few weeks ago, and I made damn sure to bring a few folks with me into the room who were very technical, and I told them and the audience ahead of time that if they have some specific technical questions that are going to go over my head, i've got some help | 13:09 |
| * herlo totally agrees with this point. An ambassador is not *everything* to *everyone* | 13:10 | |
| * spevack notes that kanarip is telling him in real-time that I am not doing a proper job of explaining how awesome kanarip is :) | 13:10 | |
| herlo | but they are the people on the ground, who are the Face of Fedora and should know where to look. | 13:10 |
| wonderer|chatzil | kanarip is the greatest... hua! | 13:10 |
| wonderer|chatzil | :-) | 13:10 |
| sseiersen | :) | 13:10 |
| spevack | any questions or comments? Am I explaining myself well? | 13:10 |
| kanarip | i'm not... | 13:11 |
| StabbyMc_ | spevack: understood your points. | 13:11 |
| kanarip | crap | 13:11 |
| StabbyMc_ | spevack: but you're talking about an ideal, yes? | 13:11 |
| spevack | inode0, quaid: anything you want to add? | 13:11 |
| spevack | kanarip: anything *you* want to add! | 13:11 |
| kanarip | i was trying to explain him that i'm just one example of what an ambassador could do... I'm there, i never man the booth, i speak just occasionally but i send out the "right" message | 13:11 |
| * StabbyMc_ is the only active ambassador in GA, so is an island unto himself. | 13:11 | |
| cjg | sorry, a little question: how to start the ambassador activity? | 13:12 |
| * spevack notes that kanarip also enjoys long walks on the beach, and beer of any sort | 13:12 | |
| spevack | cjg: you mean, how can you organize a new event? | 13:12 |
| kanarip | then there's people that get a speaker slot whenever they ask and talk to a lot of people outside of the fedora project during an event, and then there's people manning the booth, taking care of swag, doing all the stuff that i don't | 13:12 |
| kanarip | spevack, i also like jigsaw puzzles... maybe you're the last piece? | 13:13 |
| cjg | spevack, or partecipate to foss related events such as, for example, linux day o linux install fest | 13:13 |
| spevack | cjg: well, from the fedora perspective, there's two things I would recommend: | 13:13 |
| spevack | (1) http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents | 13:13 |
| spevack | (2) attend the Ambassador meeting for whatever region of the world you are in. | 13:14 |
| spevack | cjg: where are you located? | 13:14 |
| cjg | Napoli, Italy | 13:14 |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Meetings#Time_and_Place | 13:14 |
| spevack | cjg: perfect -- then you should come to our next EMEA ambassadors monthly meeting -- I actually run that meeting -- and we'll be able to put you in contact with a bunch of Ambassadors who we have in Italy. | 13:15 |
| spevack | cjg: we have a really active crew of ambassadors in italy who would love to involve you in what they do. | 13:15 |
| spevack | in the past year in italy, we've had a variety of smaller install-fest events, and also some slightly larger events | 13:15 |
| cjg | yes, i remember them | 13:16 |
| spevack | cjg: we're also planning the next European FUDCon | 13:17 |
| cjg | when he isn't organizing events what should an ambassador do? | 13:17 |
| spevack | cjg: great question! | 13:17 |
| spevack | sometimes that answer is simple, because the Ambassador does other stuff in Fedora, like packaging or working on the Websites team, etc. | 13:17 |
| spevack | But that isn't always the case | 13:18 |
| spevack | some people are superb ambassadors who simply organize a few events a year, and, like i said earlier, build a strong team of local contributors around them to help make the events successful | 13:18 |
| * RocknRoll i have a doubt | 13:18 | |
| spevack | for those kinds of people, what I'd recommend doing between events is (a) generally keeping up with what's going on in Fedora by reading Fedora Weekly News, (b) keeping more or less up to date on fedora-ambassadors-list, and (c) ... | 13:19 |
| spevack | i can't remember | 13:19 |
| spevack | ... | 13:19 |
| cjg | doh! | 13:19 |
| spevack | (c) oh, keeping in touch with other fedora contributors who live nearby you | 13:19 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: what's your doubt? | 13:19 |
| spevack | anyone else have comments, questions, etc? | 13:20 |
| RocknRoll | spevack: i am a college student . currently we are conducting an National level techfest in india . we have about 10,000 participants | 13:20 |
| RocknRoll | it scheduled on MAR 6,7&8 its going on.. | 13:20 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: ok | 13:20 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: did you have more to say? | 13:21 |
| RocknRoll | spevack: where can i find the fedora ambassadors in my location .. so that i can arrange a video conference or some talks | 13:21 |
| RocknRoll | by tomorrow | 13:22 |
| RocknRoll | if possible | 13:22 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: well, we have several resources for ambassadors in India | 13:22 |
| rogersinel1 | Is there are list of contributors? And where they live? For example I live in Sweden and would like to know if there are more Fedora contributors than the 2 than I allready know of. | 13:22 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: aside from fedora-ambassadors-list | 13:22 |
| spevack | there's #fedora-india | 13:22 |
| spevack | rogersinel1: yes, i'll address that shortly | 13:22 |
| spevack | and a fedora india mailing list | 13:22 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: are you on any of those lists or irc channels | 13:23 |
| RocknRoll | spevack: yes | 13:23 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: also, I'd be curious to know if you put your event on the FedoraEvents wiki page? | 13:23 |
| RocknRoll | i am in #fedora-india | 13:23 |
| RocknRoll | spevack: sure i will do it | 13:24 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: did you tell anyone in the Fedora India community about your event ahead of time and just get no responses? | 13:24 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: or did you not even know how to let people know about what the event is, etc.? | 13:25 |
| spevack | rogersinel1: we have a country list of Ambassadors | 13:26 |
| RocknRoll | spevack: no i have contacted a friend of mine who says about this fedora class then i came here | 13:26 |
| spevack | and I'll paste the wiki link in a moment | 13:26 |
| spevack | but let me note that it is deprecated, and that we are working on a better solution that pulls this information about of the Fedora Account System in an automated fashion | 13:26 |
| spevack | because the current page requires manual updating, which is obviously FAIL | 13:26 |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/CountryList | 13:26 |
| RocknRoll | spevack: for your reference the event site is www.psgkriya.org i am the site designer and one of the core team members | 13:26 |
| delhage | spevack: rogersinel1's question was not only about ambassadors, but all kinds of contributors | 13:27 |
| delhage | rogersinel1: right? | 13:27 |
| rogersinel1 | delhage: right | 13:27 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: well, I can't imagine you'll have much luck getting people to your event tomorrow, given that it's already the middle of the night in India | 13:27 |
| spevack | RocknRoll: but in the general case for Fedora, you'll want to (a) add your event to the Fedora Events page and (b) talk about your event in your region's local meeting. | 13:28 |
| spevack | As such, two very important pages are: | 13:28 |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/Meetings | 13:28 |
| spevack | http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraEvents | 13:28 |
| * kanarip challenges spevack to a game of Fussbal | 13:28 | |
