[Fedora-ambassadors-list] Fedora Stuff at Red Hat Cool Stuff Store

[Gerold Kassube]

we can say what we want, it doesn't care ...

BUT imho we need urgend another solution for this issue. 

I know it's not very constructive to say it like this, because I have
already no other (better) idea, but thi issue cann't be the end of the
story :-(
