My preference would be to not use this label for FADs. If we want to keep using the word, let's call Flock _the_ premier global Fedora event, and FUDCons premier regional events. I don't think we even need a special term for FADs. And, I think *some* FADs make sense from the central community budget (whether we call that the Council budget or something else), while others — like the ambassadors' planning FADs — make sense to me to be part of the regional budgets directly. This implies regionalizing some things which have not been traditionally in the ambassadors scope — for example, a translation activity day focused a language or languages of a region might be best planned and organized within that region.
