FAmSCo Report 2010

Dear Fellows,

it is my pleasure, to announce the

FAmSCo Report for the Election Period 2009-2010

My FAmSCo duties end ;)

While we work on the quality of the Report with all FAmSCo Members - i want to share some key achievements and Numbers.

Besides all the ongoing tasks like SWAG-, Media-, Ressource-, Budgethandling, Release Party Contests, Mailing-List- & Membership-Administration, Ambassador Townhalls und Mentors Meetings, we achieved also a lot for the Group itself - some examples

• we released the Fedora Ambassadors project structure for more clarity
• a dispute resolution procedure for the Ambassador Group is established
  
• we opened up the FAmSCo Mailing List archives for more transparency
  
• primary tasks and goals where given to every Member of FAmSCo in 2010
• our FAmSCo election rules got revised and ratified
• the FAmSCo Wiki Pages got a clean up and a complete reorganization
• for the first time the Ambassdor Group had Ambassadorial Milestones for the official F14 Schedule
• ... more in the final Report

Over the years we could constantly increase our Event participation:







Ambassador Membership Administration and Mentoring is also a major part where we improved our performance:

• the Ambassador Membership Process got tweaked with the new Membership Wizard
• Mentors Survey and Mentors Survey Summary
• the regional Ambassador Mentors appointment process was established
  

That day as i visited my first FUDCon in 2005 in Karlsruhe, i could never imagine that i will be really a part of such a great team.

Even as FAmSCo made me the Membership Administrator for the Ambassdor Group 3 years later in 2008 - without being a FAmSCo Member - i never thought i am hard working enough, to deserve to work in a Steering Commitee.

And now that i served 2 periods in FAmSCo? The FAmSCo Report for the last 12 month is nearly finished - and if i look back - i am proud of the Ambassador Group and i am proud of FAmSCo as well.

My biggest thanks to all who helped Fedora to make this happen!!!
