20:05:51 <twillber> Hi guys, my first time attending the ambassadors meeting. Greetings from Finland.
20:06:11 <nmilosev> Hello twillber! :) Are you a new ambassador?
20:06:43 <twillber> volunteering to become one, discussed with Jiri Eischmann and he recommended me to join this meeting to introduce myself
20:07:08 <jonatoni> welcome twillber
20:07:14 <nmilosev> That's great, do not hesitate to ask about anything :)
20:07:49 <nmilosev> You can make a short introduction now, tell us what you do and how do you use Fedora :) (if you want)
20:07:55 <Rhea> Finland, cool
20:08:10 <Rhea> How far are you from the polar circle?
20:08:24 <twillber> Great, thanks for the welcome. I'm 7+ years Red Hatter, a Solution Architect based in Finland.  For Fedora I organize community meetups (Fedora + CentOS + RHEL users), and I also coordinate nowadays the Finnish translation group.
20:08:27 <Rhea> (and in which direction xD)
20:09:04 <twillber> Rhea, about 712 km apparently, no-one ever asked that before... I'm based in Helsinki :)
20:09:12 <Rhea> awww okay

20:21:08 <nmilosev> We can wrap it up if everyone agrees, thank you all for coming! :)
20:21:16 <robyduck> !
20:21:23 <nmilosev> yes, robyduck
20:21:37 <robyduck> I have two things I'd like to bring up for discussion
20:21:49 <robyduck> not necessarily here, but on ML maybe
20:22:17 <robyduck> FAmSCo is asking for feedback for the new mentor nomination and removal process
20:22:19 <robyduck> https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/ambassadors@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/7F23I6NUEYCK6GYPDXT6OKPY5Z4VI3GD/
20:22:55 <robyduck> this has already been agreed, but before writing it down to the wiki we would like to get community feedback for improvements
20:23:25 <robyduck> the other one is a slight change in our ambassador's inactivity policy
20:23:35 <robyduck> https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/ambassadors@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/I3MDKA5Q2CPIHLFPG3QWNQMR5IFMRNG6/
20:23:38 <Rhea> (speaking of wiki and FAmSCo - there is still link for trac)
20:24:00 <robyduck> Rhea: what do you mean?
20:24:23 <Rhea> https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors#Tracking_Ambassador_Requests
20:24:55 <robyduck> FAmSCo has a Council advise to change the rule a bit, but we want to get feedback before proceeding here
20:25:30 <robyduck> Rhea: feel free to fix it :)
20:25:44 <nmilosev> Thanks for bringing this up, robyduck
20:26:18 <Rhea> I fixed the NA today when I noticed it, I don't want to step over someones toes with FAmSCo tho, I'm not really sure what's up to date nowadays..
20:26:19 <robyduck> nmilosev: np, both emails are on the mabssadors list and link to the tickets, where you will find more detailled informations
20:26:33 <nmilosev> Let me just link these quickly for minutes
20:26:46 <nmilosev> #info FAmSCo - new mentor nomination and removal process
20:26:49 <robyduck> nmilosev: thanks
20:26:53 <nmilosev> #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/ambassadors@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/7F23I6NUEYCK6GYPDXT6OKPY5Z4VI3GD/
20:27:03 <nmilosev> #link Ambassadors inactivity changes
20:27:05 <nmilosev> #undo
20:27:05 <zodbot> Removing item from minutes: <MeetBot.items.Link object at 0x2280c150>
20:27:12 <nmilosev> #info Ambassadors inactivity changes
20:27:20 <nmilosev> #link https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/ambassadors@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/I3MDKA5Q2CPIHLFPG3QWNQMR5IFMRNG6/
20:27:44 <robyduck> hmm apparetly I forgot to link the pagure issues in the email
20:27:53 <lupinix> thank you very much for sharing that info here too robyduck :)
20:28:06 * robyduck will add them to the ML
20:28:07 <nmilosev> Regarding the first point, if someone wants to become a mentor, the correct approach is to ask an existing mentor or famsco member, correct?
20:29:06 <robyduck> nmilosev: the relevant ticket is: https://pagure.io/famsco/issue/424
20:29:17 <robyduck> for the inactivity rule change
20:29:48 <robyduck> for the other you can just refer to the mail: for info, the ticket is https://pagure.io/famsco/issue/415
20:30:00 <robyduck> lupinix: no problem at all
20:30:22 <robyduck> nmilosev: yes, actually it is like that, but we want to make that more dynamic
20:30:34 <robyduck> also Regions should be able to nominate a new mentor
20:30:53 <robyduck> regional ambassadors know better what is happening within their Region
20:31:03 <nmilosev> We should define a process for this, I think
20:31:15 <robyduck> nmilosev: it's in the email
20:31:17 <nmilosev> Like: open a ticket and bring it up during the meeting for voting
20:31:19 <robyduck> the whole process
20:31:33 <robyduck> ah, you mean for the Region
20:31:34 <nmilosev> I mean, about regions nomination
20:31:37 <nmilosev> yeah
20:31:46 <nmilosev> But it's pretty clear :)
20:31:58 <robyduck> yes, the Region is free to make that as they want
20:32:18 <nmilosev> Great!
20:32:20 <nmilosev> eof?
20:32:39 <robyduck> nmilosev: yup, sorry, EOF
20:33:17 <nmilosev> Awesome, thank you again all for coming, I hope to see you in two weeks time. :) If that is all I will be ending the meeting in one (1) minute.
20:33:31 <lupinix> good night everyone :)
20:33:51 <lupinix> nmilosev: thanks for chairing :)
20:34:11 <nmilosev> np :) good night everyone!
