Hi, I'm sorry for the late response, but I'd like to set something straight: 2015-10-13 23:12 GMT+02:00 Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>: > > - Right now, all money is allocated to ambassadors through regions, > including Flock and FUDCons, and except for FADs. AFAIK this is not correct. The ambassadors only manage the regional support but not premiere events budget. Traditionally, the Fedora budget consisted of three parts: 1. premiere events 2. regional support 3. discretionary funds 1 and 3 are managed by the "budget owners", that means OSAS. 1 not only includes FLOCKs and FUDCons but also FADs as they are premiere events, too. See https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Premier_Fedora_Events Only 2 is managed by the ambassadors and further broken down per region. Depending on the amount, a request is either approved by a peer (famsco member or credit card owner), the regional community (in an IRC meeting) or by FAmSco. For more info see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Reimbursements#Budget_Request_and_Reimbursement_Guidelines and the regional guidelines linked there. > We want to do > that differently for FY18 — probably split out at least Flock, > and have non-regional budget for marketing and other centralized > community activities. Right, and that's exactly what we already have or at least what we used to have before OSAS, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Accounting and https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Community_Architecture_expenses Please let me know is something has changed and I'm mistaken.
