Explore the Fedora Project
Ask yourself how well you understand the different moving pieces that make up Fedora. As an Ambassador, you'll be asked about numerous parts of the Fedora Project. You don't need to have all the answers, but you need general familiarity with Fedora, and you'll need to know how to find answers.
- Read how to be a successful contributor
- Read Fedora Magazine and the Community Blog regularly. Think about which parts of the Fedora Project capture your attention and imagination.
- Read Planet Fedora every day if possible.
- Read LWN.
- Peruse the Fedora Mailing lists as much of the work in Fedora is done this way.
