Priority 1
- Famsco Update
- AlexMaier reports
- Famsco has met on Monday
- We have appointed Max Spevack treasurer
- he will be the person in charge of paying the reimbursement to the ambassadors
- we have also decided that for each action item there will be one person responsible for it, such as events, or other initiatives
- that means:
- - making sure the local ambassadors who are responsible are doing what they are supposed to do
- - making sure our process is being followed
- - making sure they get their money from whoever in famsco pays it on time
- - having the authority to pull the plug if everything is going downhill
- you can see more detail on this at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/SteeringCommittee/Meetings/2006-04-10
