FAmSCo 提名开始(2)

接上篇，(ugolini) 继续向您介绍 FAmSCo，也许可以激励您提名自己。
过去，特别是今年，我们看到了社区令人讶异的成长。据此我们进一步了解到 Fedora 的根本的价值观，还有大使项目的意义。
1. 社区举足轻重
Fedora 是合众人之力而成。没有庞大的社区，包括我们，Fedora 不可能有如此成就。社区是我们最重要的品牌价值，是我们与众不同。
因此，大使项目是重要的一环。我们向全世界推广 Fedora，将 Fedora 与全世界直接联系起来。
2. 开放的过程和直接参与
这是项目中激动人心的一部分。不仅加入社区，作出贡献非常容易，而且可以容易地直接参与决策过程。这样不仅使社区成为我们的基础，而且使 Fedora 在稳定、可靠的依托之上，得以不断改进。
同样的，大使项目也是这一理念的体现。这篇文章的本意便是要您了解，您可以做得更多：要么直接参与竞选；或者稍后投下自己的一票。您直接决定了大使项目的将来。
Fedora 还有其他的核心价值，这里我只想强调这两点，它们与大使项目和接下来的选举紧密相关。我希望这样可以帮助您作出正确的决定。无论是否参与 FAmSCo，您都处于项目的中心。

原文见 Call for Ambassadors (2)

Yesterday I wrote about FAmSCo nomination period, now I want to talk about few aspects you may find interesting, hoping those could invite you adding your name.

During the last years, mainly during this one, we saw a constant, amazing,  growth of participation in our community: this helped us defining the core values behind Fedora and behind Ambassadors Project too.

1. Community matters

Fedora is people powered, without a big community, like ours, we couldn’t arrive where we are: community is become our principal brand value, it helped us differentiate from the other project.

In that way, Ambassadors Project is one of most clear expression of this: with our voice we go around the world promoting Fedora and creating a direct relation between Fedora and the rest of world.

2. Open processes and direct participation

I think this is one of the most interesting part of the project: it’s simple to join our community and starting working, but it’s really easy to join directly the decision making process. This helps not only to create a community based project but it makes possible to keep Fedora an evolving process, with a stable and reliable background.

Once again, Ambassadors Project is the clear expression of this one. I’m writing this post to let you know that it’s your time: you can join the challenge or, in a second time, cast your vote, but, in both cases you will directly decide where Ambassadors Project should go.

There are other Fedora core values: here I wanted to underline the two ones that are directly connected with ambassadors and with the crucial step we are facing. I hope those ones could help you taking the right decision but, stay sure, whatever you will decide (run for FAmSCo or not), you will be at the center of the project!
