*sigh* a deja vu feeling :) Sankarshan, Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I wasn't in a mood to re-write my yesterday's speech ( from some other list ) ;) OT : Suggestion - maybe before going into this process of creating multiple lugs and also Fedora ambassadors there are important things to be done like teaching people how to write an email to mailing lists. How to read emails? How to think about what is written? Such type of emailing etiquette is not doing any good to anybody or the community itself. So when somebody goes to promote Fedora or start a new lug at a new place - maybe she/he needs to tell the audience about a few more things other than the standard stuff. How to behave, listen to community and work with the community is a good thing to tell them? ( This also goes for other projects as well.) Spending 15 minutes on this right then and there at the event can save hours now. Makes sense because at that point they are probably listening to YOU, the speaker more than now when they can choose to ignore YOUR email and its contents completely, never mind giving it some thought. And once you leave, some nice chaps concentrate all their energies into getting things done ( which is good thing ), their adrenalin is a super high excited state to do nice things, at that point they may or may not have time to listen to the "right things". Also, Sankarshan you are right, a FAQ page mentioning the "Right" things to do and with references to important information is a neat idea. Cheers!
