Ambassadors, As some of you may have noticed by now, the new Budget site for Fedora has been pushed to Production! Production: http://budget.fedoraproject.org Source: http://pagure.io/fedora-websites This site is part of the new Budget.next process you may recall from emails previously on this list: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Budget.next In keeping with the process there, I'm gathering all the information needed to comply with our revised policies. This email is a *final* request for three (3) items of information we need from each region: FY16 Budget Report FY17 Budget Proposed FY17 Regional Delegates Here is what we have had reported thusfar: APAC -------- - FY16 Budget Report: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/APAC/Budget:2016 - FY17 Budget Proposed: _____ - FY17 Regional Delegates: ______ LATAM --------- - FY16 Budget Report: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/LATAM/Budget:2016 - FY17 Budget Proposed: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors/LATAM/Budget:2017 - FY17 Regional Delegates: _____ NA ---- - FY16 Budget Report: _______ - FY17 Budget Proposed: _______ - FY17 Regional Delegate Selections: https://budget.fedoraproject.org/#delegates EMEA --------- - FY16 Budget Report: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11nWHrooCwoiWqGx4iEUnITQAWwQrQ6_2ito8GUtBk_g/edit#gid=0 - FY17 Budget Proposed: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IAt2udlv-gwTjUYfhqvNOnwL_1FH_NC4AhobdFH1tNU/edit#gid=0 - FY17 Regional Delegates: _________ Please be sure that the links above reflect the latest information for your region, as we will be using it to determine the soon-to-be-released Fedora Budget for FY17. Without having a FY17 Proposed Budget (let alone a completed FY16 Budget Report from last year) it will be difficult to decide how much budget to allocate to your region in FY17. Regions without proposed and reported budgets run the risk of having their budgets allocated centrally by the council until in compliance with the process. This is *not* the preferred or ideal method of budgeting, and would be an unnecessary burden on both the council and the regions. It is possible that I have either misplaced your responses, or have not looked in the correct places where this information is historically tracked, so if your region's information is missing, please accept my apologies and respond here on the ambassador list with updated links and/or information. In the future, we will be utilizing a repository on Pagure to track budget and delegate information. We have discussed the possibility of using this repository to automatically update the Budget site in production, but for now, consider it a static repository of documents and data. https://pagure.io/budget Thank you all for your patience as we transition into this new era of budget transparency. It is my hope that we can stay on top of the process this year, streamline the reporting requirements, and thereby streamline the reimbursement process, while improving information access to everyone in Fedora :) Looking Forward, --RemyD. -- Remy DeCausemaker Fedora Community Lead & Council <decause@xxxxxxxxxx> https://whatcanidoforfedora.org _______________________________________________ council-discuss mailing list council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/council-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The Fedora Project's mission is to lead the advancement of free and open source software and content as a collaborative community.
