Project Name: Global Ambassadors map.

Target Audience: Anyone needing any info about fp.o. Inside and outside fp.o.

Expiration/Delivery Date (required): As soon as possible. :)

Description/Summary:  Mapping app extracting location info of
Ambassadors and put it on a map, along with necessary contact
information.

Project plan (Detailed): Ambassadors are interface between the project
and the people. So, whenever wants to know something about fedora,
he/she cantacts an ambassador. So far, this has been a tedious process
of searching through a number of user pages to know who is the nearest
ambassador to contact. This map will enable anyone to locate the
location of an ambassador and/or the nearest one whom to ask help for.
This can be extended for all other sub projects too.


Goals: , nothing to add.
