EMEA Ambassadors 13th July Minutes


John(inode) explained briefly on the sticker price and quantity. He said that It appeared that from our initial quote 5000 of these would cost NA around $1,000 but the marginal cost of adding an additional 5000 might
be as low as $300. Given that low marginal cost he  thinks that we should seriously consider a much larger order so we are requesting quotes for 12000, 16000, and 20000 now and expect to have those quotes in hand within a week. NA won't be making any decision on this until we see those quotes and we'll share the costs with others who might want to join with us before we order. So he asked everyone stayed tuned for about a week and to  see what the final numbers are for larger orders.


aeperezt highlights that Panama may need minimum of 100 in quantity in LATAM

=== Events reported on Ambassadors mailing list ===


Shaiton shared details of his Paris Event, here is the original mail in its original taste. Thanks Shaiton
===FAmSCo Meeting===


We had a great two days event in Paris the 4th and 5th of June. I know that it happened a month ago, apologies for this late report.


In the talk room we were discussing about new F15 features, and then there was a 2h BoxGrinder workshop. In a workshop room we worked on sound composition using FOSS and then there were discussions about LaTeX.
FAmSco looked into understand better the view of ambassadors and here are the results:
The install party in itself was in the master room (about 100 people there with 20 FOSS contributors). We spoke a lot about GNOME 3, and we made lots of live USB. In this room, there was a big white screen in which I displayed a slideshow about the event planning, the first page of our newly released Muffin 3 magazine, a summary of "How to contribute" and websites. For this "slideshow" I used the GNOME Shell
power: I wrote a plugin to auto switch between workspace. No need anymore to write something in LibreOffice. One full screen window in each workspace and you're done![2] KDE lovers were silent.
 
 
This is what we usually do for each release. But this time we wanted more, this is why we planned this second contribution day!
We where about 10 French Fedora Project contributors here to work on different subjects and showing people to know how to be involved in
the Fedora Project. We encounter some French forum users. That was nice, we spoke a lot. Firstly we wanted to improve the LXC template
but there was a new release only few days before, and we didn't really had big project on which we would be able to work. Every contributors
have their wide TODO list. Next time, we should define some projects and start before the targeted day, in a FAD way.
 
The event page is in french[3] but you can find slideshow used in the talks (the BoxGrinder one is there[4]).
