=== North American Ambassadors take reins of XO program ===
* Survey: Red Hat Certifications/Training for FAms by Uditha Bandara Wijerathna
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018758.html</ref>


During the week following FUDcon, it was suggested that the Fedora Ambassadors in North America run the NA Developer XO program for an initial period of 6 months.
* EMEA ambassadors meeting 2011-12-28 minutes by Christoph Wickert
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018761.html</ref>


The reasons for Ambassadors taking the reins on this project are:
* FAmSco meeting 2011-12-28 minutes by Christoph Wickert
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018761.html</ref>


* Ambassadors can help the NA Developer XO program by seeking help, freeing up developers already involved to concentrate on their work.
* talks for clt by S.Kemter
* The Ambassadors are already in place, going to every major event and tons of minor events recruiting contributors to Fedora.
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018770.html</ref>
* Ambassadors have had some moderate success getting people involved with both Fedora and OLPC/Sugar.


OLPC decided to take the Ambassadors up on the offer and shipped 100 XOs to the FAmNA.
* A friendly reminder, the next biweekly APAC meeting is on Saturday, January 07th, 2012 at 04:00 UTC by David Ramsey
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018775.html</ref>


Guidelines have been set - subject to the guidance of the OLPC SIG -- and the wiki, which has just been started and is in the process of refining, can be found here:


https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_developers_XO_program
===FAmSCo Meeting===


Essentially the bar that has been set is:
* FAmSCo meeting log for 2011-12-21 by Neville
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018716.html</ref>


* Maintain a sugar-* package in Fedora and agree to maintain it for two releases. Alternately maintain a package that was in OLPC4 and has been merged.
* FAmSCo Report: November 2011 by Igor Pires Soares
* Develop a Sugar activity. To keep this in focus I have adopted Greg Dekoenigsberg's 'holy list of 4th grade math lessons' as acceptable activities:
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018746.html</ref>


http://sugarlabs.org/go/User:Gdk/4th_Grade_Maths
* FAmSco meeting 2011-12-28 minutes by Christoph Wickert
* QA (well not really): While FAmNA isn't actively looking for QA help, but if someone with extensive QA experience and lots of time presents itself we won't pass it up.

=== North America Polo Shirt Order ===
=== Events reported on Ambassadors mailing list ===


Pascal Calarco has initiated another round of ordering for Ambassador Polos for North American Ambassadors as announced on the Fedora Ambassador mailing list. There is also additional information here:

=== FAD SCaLE coming up Feb. 20 ===
* Some words about FOSDEM (was: fosdem 2012) by Bert Desmet
<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/ambassadors/2011-December/018757.html</ref>


The Fedora Activity Day<ref>http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Activity_Day_at_SCaLE_7x</ref> at the Southern California Linux Expo (SCaLE)<ref>http://scale7x.socallinuxexpo.org/</ref> will be from 9am - 6pm on Friday, Feb. 20 at the Westin Airport Los Angeles, in Los Angeles, California. There will be breaks and such, but the FAD will be treated much like a sprint. We're here to get something accomplished -- specifically font packaging and documentation -- so come on by and help us out for an hour or all day. We'd love to have you there!

Also, if you can make SCaLE from the Southern California area, stop by the Fedora booth.
