Hello again,
Yes indeed lots of interesting ideas have been received now I have a few
proposals in my mind.
1. The Ambassador lead team as I would like to call it decides who is an
active / passive member.
2. The question is how do we decide that an ambassador is active.
What would we consider to treat them as active?
This should also serve as duties of an ambassador or a set of guidelines
which should be included in the welcome kit so that even a clueless
ambassador is clear about what he needs to do
3. I would like everyone who applies as an ambassador to be given a
chance
4. Every ambassador gets a feed at the planet, I am not sure if admins
are ok with it
5. Everyone the marketing team and the ambassador team helps out the
ambassador to the best of their capacity not just the Ambassador lead
team.
Q . How does an ambassador apply?
Ans I suggest lets create a wiki page and the ambassador lead team
watches over it anytime a change is made, they are notified via email
and then then any questionnaire which the ambassador lead team creates
so that they can be introduced to the community.
Q. Purpose of Welcome Kit / What should the welcome kit contain
Ans - * Introduction to the Ambassador Lead team
* Clearly define what are the roles of the ambasador to him, so that he
is not in doubt which may include Events, Talks, Install Fests,
Blogging, social media etc
* Point him to the right wiki pages that will help him ie our
ambassador, marketing and artwork portals
* Point him to the social media where he can help everyone.
* Point him to irc channels etc
This should be a one time work and should not vary for ambassador to
ambassador
* Show him the incharge person to ask for DVDs / promo stuff
In the past few months some of us have wanted to remove passive
ambassadors so if we decide to do that we have no metrics of doing that
except for reports. I think we should have introduce some new metrics
again
* Offcourse, reports are integral part of the metric
* I would like the amount they blog / articles about openSUSE, even a
few nice blogs makes a lot of difference
* How active they are in our social media portals like facebook /
linkedin / whatever we have.
I am throwing such a lot of stuff because I think we have a lot of
people willing to help and mentor people. This cant be a one man job as
time is not infinite for all of us
Regards
Manu

Well
a lot of interesting proposals were made here and all are at least good ideas.
At the bottom line I think that after we decide how we will replace
temporarily Andreas we can work as a team all that time and
decide-finalize the procedure about the ambassadors and then make a
proposal with our ideas, what do you think about it?

Dear All,
I too agree with that the ambassadors should have some more specific
portal with gallerias, event schedules, meeting, regional based groups
and so on. we can have a meeting and discuss about all.
Those things should be regularly monitored and guide them to achieve
targets.
I think then we can get more support from them then, organizing
regional group is the best thing we can do to make the process
smoother. Coz handling small group is far better and efficient than
for going with large scale.
Creating promotion items, business cards, portals, email address can
also effect the people too. :)
