This isn't entirely true. Appointed seats on the Fedora Board, for example, can come from anywhere. It's certainly not my intention to limit Fedora or its governance to one particular part of the world, or to ignore EMEA as you state. My goal is to build a community that's both diverse and inclusive of people with a wide variety of backgrounds and experiences. As we discussed when I was in Zurich, I think I understand (at least some of) your frustrations, and I'm doing what I can to try to eliminate some of the barriers (or perceived barriers in some cases) that keep people from collaborating more with Fedora. -- Jared Smith Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ advisory-board mailing list advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/advisory-board
