>>> What is our role as ambassadors?
>>> I think that is promoting the Fedora in our country, am i wrong?
>>> So I became ambassador to promote Fedora in Portugal.
>>> But I believe there are ambassadors who don't think this way, at least in
>>> Portugal.
>>> As already announced in this list, it will start soon the site for the
>>> project Fedora Portugal.
>>> The other 5 Portuguese ambassadors were invited on several occasions to
>>> participate in the website.
>>>
>>
>> Normally in our regions....really normally...
>>
>>>
>>>
>>> More than a month passed and still not got an answer.
>>> The point is this: I live in Luxembourg and I am alone in this adventure,
>>> *should I start the project without any support? *
>>>
>>
>> At first, you are not alone. Like ambassador you are part of the voice of
>> Fedora worldwide, with special focus on your regions.
>> When things doesnt comes what we want we cant stop, or see it as an
>> oportunity to "make the difference".
>>
>> A nice thing to start a project like this is begin to take "small and
>> reasonable milestones. Look at the project as a global strategy.
>> Probably the first times could be hard, but if u start to move, soon or
>> later, people will come to you. Think that your role is talk to
>> people in Portugal about Fedora and Software Freedom. This is an enourmus
>> task, but , its a responsability too. Be focused on the
>> main objetive can help, to not become sad or dissapointed.
>>
>>
>>>
>>>
>>> The only support I have had, has been the Brazilian ambassadors as Eunir
>>> Augusto (which made most of the work!), Erick Gomes and Rodrigo Padula.
>>>
>>
>> Thats why u are not alone!!!!. I know personally Rodrigo, and I know that
>> he will help you whenever he will be.
>>
>>
>>>
>>> In Portugal Fedora is unknown, has a bad translation, has no wiki and
>>> just does not have a community.
>>> So we urgently need a web site with a forum and a wiki.
>>>
>>
>> Very Nice!!!!!, u have the oportunity to "make things happen". A web site
>> could be an option. Rodrigo theres some space on
>> Latinamerica hosting to give access. I can help him with the site
>> building...
>>
>>
>>>
>>> We need to bring together the users, and encouraging more people to
>>> translate the Fedora.
>>> With the help of Brazilian ambassadors, the site could start operating
>>> next month.
>>> The question is: who will be there?
>>>
>>
>> The most important answer: YOU are the beggining for Fedora in Portugal.
>> Do not hesitate. We are all part of all. Not all the ambassadors could help
>> u, but i think that with some chat and some web resources u can start the
>> project. REMEMBER: small milestones. Firs of all, create the site is the
>> firts step, the next the speechs in differnte places, ask for help to
>> newcommers to help you translate documentation, etc. When I found Fedora
>> Argentina in 2006, i was alone.
>>
>>>
>>> That is why I ask your opinion:
>>> *it is worth starting the site even alone, without the support of
>>> another 5 Portuguese ambassadors?*
>>>
>>
>> Yes! IMHO is very important. Push the limits :-). Probably their silence
>> is not necesarily desinterest, probably they have personal problems, or
>> other issues, or absense of time. Who knows. All this is my personal
>> opinion, anyway.
>>
>>
>> A good start could be mount the website....
>> Rodrigo, it seems that Fedora Latinamerica, becomes in Fedora HispaAmerica
>> :-)
>>
>>
>> Nice to be here again.....
>> Fedorize! yourself
