<div>In LATAM that help could really help a LOT. I think people who
should receive that help must be:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Nicaragua - Argentina - Colombia</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>They could send us some to the rest of countries that truly
need
this and might be cheaper.</div>

<div>Also, if we, Fedora LATAM folks, could help doing some paypal
donation so we could receive a little more, just tell us what we have
to do. I think that if we al LATAM put a litte effort could get a great
amount. (if each of ambassadors donate 5 us$ or 10us$... wow)</div>

all,<br>
<br>
In the Fedora Ambassadors NA meeting tonight, we were talking about
producing more case badges, which look like this:<br>

<br>
They are beautiful (IMHO) and the picture doesn't do it justice. What
looks gray in the picture is really silver, and quite shiny.<br>
<br>
Due to the price points around producing these, it would make the most
sense to produce a HUGE amount of badges (5,000 or more even) and
shipping them to key folks around the world.<br>

when we do the Q4 budget calculations.<br>

An example of the budget calculations in previous quarters:<br>

<br>
So, I guess the question is -- do folks in EMEA, LATAM, India, and Asia
have use for some of these? Should we go ahead with this plan?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Max<br>

I would even happily pay for some of those case badges. And as Red Hat
is a bit iffy,c about people paying for stuff, because of tax reasons
(or whatever). Why not order more, and at least for EMEA, if people
donate<br>
a small amount, they get sent a number of free case badges.<br>
<br>

Maria,<br>
<br>
we all had those ideas for FEDORA EMEA, legally a club, but then Red
Hat says, it could appear to US tax authorities, who have no
jurisdiction in Germany (as the club is based there), that this is an
official Red Hat entity, so then it was kind of implied we would have
to change it's name. Then about selling stuff, they don't want to sell
goods, I guess it is too much hassle for them. And we as the community
cant make much of a fuss, as they donate thousands! And the Fedora
board has to grant the privilege to make and sell goods, which for
Fedora EMEA, they did (apparently). It is all a bit of a pain in the
back side. You might find some discussions with regards to this all, in
the meetings logs of the EMEA meetings. All I can say is, this is
frustrating for everyone. I sent this message just to you, just so you
know, what went on before. So brace yourself for problems, if you want
to pursue this topic further. I personally hope you will, maybe
somebody at Red Hat will listen.<br>
<br>
Good luck and all the best.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Tristan<br>

OK, that message was for Maria, obviously. Apologies, any opinions
there were my own, and no offence should be taken from my email, as
this is not anyones fault, especially not Max's. It is a "legal" issue.<br>
