Outreach representatives need to be properly trained, overlaps w/stuff
that is the responsibility of the Outreach Committee. Outreach will help
train ambassadors at the appropriate time.

----
Types of Representation:

*questions:
**if
**who
**how

*types:
**conferences
**other freegeeks (ongoing relationships)
**technical aid (a lot like a consulting gig, one-off types jobs)

----
* if/conference = educational, schmoozing, speaking, costs (who pays for).
* if/other geeks = happen to be in the area, help free geeks (some that
are all ass-hatted up), costs (who pays for) grants?. Can we afford the
personnel during the time.
* if/technical aid = linked to existing program, costs (who pays for).
Can be billed as a contract. Skill sharing.
* if/general = Paying for it: Grants (maybe), other means. Can we afford
the personnel during the time or other structural costs. Don't forget
the base.

----
* how/general = outreach guidelines, what we are NOT.
* how/geeks = make contacts, organizational/analysis skills for sharing
and a deep understanding for the organizational structure and history of
free geeks, teaching.
* how/conference = invitation to talk
* how/tech = teaching, technical work and trouble shooting, cultural
exchange, process development, etc. Teaching folks to fish.

----
* who/general = appropriate skills, who's turn, structural importance,
skill development, who is appropriate culturally or has prior
relationship, outreach for and evaluation for potential qualified
ambassadors.
* who/conferences = public speaking, will skills gained, knowledge
learned benefit free geek.

----
In general, grants should not be written by folks that will directly
benefit from the grant.
