It is better to do one thing well than to suck at many. With that being said, Fedora is about Freedom, one of those freedoms I hope includes Freedom of speech. One might choose to be an ambassador for a project just for the free shirt, while in their heart they agree with another project to a greater degree, I think this is wrong. Go with what you believe in, if you believe that Linux in general is the answer to most questions perhaps you should take up that flag. I don't think taking that stance should exclude you from being a Fedora Ambassador it certainly would not forcibly include you in that formal group. I choose to not be a formal "Fedora Ambassador" yet when ever practical I suggest Fedora to people interested. When Fedora is impractical I suggest Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, Ubuntu, IPCop or some other distro. I think it is foolish to think that Fedora is perfect for every situation or is perfect in general.
