Ambassadors are the representatives of Fedora. They ensure the public understands Fedora's principles and the work that Fedora is doing, and are responsible for helping to grow the contributor base by acting as a liaison between other FLOSS projects and the Fedora community.

What we do

  • Organize Fedora participation at events.
  • Talk about the Four Foundations of Fedora.
  • Promote and demonstrate Fedora and other FLOSS projects to the public, i.e. at local user groups with talks, etc.
