Hi all, As discussed in the recent meeting, I have spent some time looking into other projects Ambassador programs, my findings are listed below: Fedora and GNOME both had a great deal of information regarding their Ambassadors and whilst I was unable to find Ambassador programs for other projects, many of them have had talk about starting one. Also QT has a fairly new Ambassador program. GNOME: - Business Cards - Ambassador shirts (uniform) - Event travel sponsorship - Banners, Posters & Flyers - Event box (everything needed to set up an event booth) - Presentation slides Fedora: - Business Cards - Ambassador shirts (uniform) - Event travel sponsorship - Banners, Posters & Flyers - Event box (everything needed to set up an event booth) - Presentation slides and slide templates - Mentors (Ambassadors who have been approved to mentor new and potential Ambassadors) - T-shirts, Stickers, Pens, etc. (and a list of local vendors who can produce them to save on shipping costs) QT: - Allowed to use the ambassador logo - Access to merchandise/giveaways - Ambassador shirt (uniform) - Must have proven QT skills Both Fedora and GNOME had good Ambassador web-pages which make the aforementioned resources very easy to apply for/download. -- Barry D.

Barry! You did a great job doing homework. Really appreciated. I n otice all the programs you have looked at are "Ambassador" named programs. Do you have any insight into other ambassador-type programs like Ubuntu's LoCo program? I'd like to see a bit more. Anyone else have suggestions what programs to look at?

Hi there, I have just checked if still exist any similar program at Mozilla. There was a spokesperson program before (about 2008), but it never went to alive, although we had to do test interviews and several other things for qualification. At this time a new program arise called Mozilla Student Reps: http://studentreps.mozilla.org - no business card - no special t-shirt - event travel, maybe food sponsorship (sponsorship request process: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Marketing&format=mktgeven... ) - banners, posters - l10n ready flyers: http://guides.mozilla.org/Marketing/SfxEducationToolkit - l10n ready presentation slides and slide templates - student reps community help - t-shirts, bags, stickers, pens etc. hope it helps kalman -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-ambassadors+help@opensuse.org

Well in Nicaragua are 2 ambassador of Fedora, and 1 Ambassador from openSUSE. what i can see, in nicaragua Fedora's Ambassador go to meeting and event's International, and it's a good experience because they have interaction between them. But! This ambassador doesn't have sponsorship for original DVDs and others things, like flyers, posters, marketing material. And in Nicaragua all LUGs are jealous because opensuse's Ambassador have sponsorship for marketing material like stuffed animals, stickers, promodvd etc etc. =) 2010/8/29, Kálmán Kéménczy <kkemenczy@opensuse.org>:
