I might still put it on company expenses. I'm courting a new client who is a big player in security so it should be allowable. I'd love to go and it might be beneficial to my company and to Dash. I'll find out next week.

That would be great !
No pressure obviously but please keep us posted
 
I"m going to be working out of Stuttgart, Germany for the next two years - do we need any representation in that area?

Hey good to hear from you,
New job at Mercedes Benz ? (Lol)

Definately , the more the better and there is Dash work to do in any city + spreading the word !
 
Any room for more people, like myself?
Of course! we need as many people preaching as possible. The program has been a bit stagnant during the rebranding, but we are gonna try to push things more now. The best place to be up to date is this thread atm.
 
Dear Ambassadors.
We (Minotaur, Fernando, me) had an “ Ambassador meeting” this morning to organise our next steps and actions for the group.

Before we get into this we thought it is important to write out our thoughts on
“general Ambassador Tasks/ job Description”
so we all know what is expected from an Ambassador, and what is the minimum action he/she can bring to the community.

Your Local Language ! (German, French, Hindi, Russian,….)
is one of the main points !

Daily Tasks should be:
- update/post DCT international section
- update/post BCT / your local language BTC + Dash threads
- update/post Local Blogs, Chat Groups, FB Pages,....
- Push PR/translated Articles onto them, write your own
- translate guides and help others

On DCT International, by far the most active communities are the Chinese and Russian.
The chinese Alexy and Raico are on top of translations + posts and updates, there is a special scenario going on as we are fighting the Scam/Ponzi pages.
The russian section is not even updated by Ambassadors 51ASIC as the community is so active in translations and posts + local Social Media Pages.

- I believe the German community in Dash is huge, even though the DCT section is dead !
GreyGhost HammerHedd

- The french are pushing hard (tx sangoku ) and there might not be much feedback yet, but that will come

- I still have my eye on Brazil and imagine there must be a ton going on ! raganius

- Spain ? aleix

- Abdulaziz , i believe we should get an ‘Arab’ Section onto DCT to you have a better outlet?! (What do you think ?)

- weirdgod , how is that Linkedin Group going ?? (sorry i was too busy to participate there)

as a suggestion to all the international languages
update/post as mentioned above
translate our PR/published stories and push them onto your local outlets
translate guides and push them onto your community

- The easiest is for the American/English Ambassadors, as they do not even have to translate, so i thought there would be more groups on FB (1 english only !! + the official) or any other social media outlet ?!

There are so many opportunities you could do , from home, on your computer, copy/paste for 15 minutes in the morning and done !! Start an FB page, G+ Group, Chatroom, Create your own page,…..

It would be great if we could start with these easy normal online responsibilities for each Ambassador, this is by far the easiest way to spread the Dash word, and that is what it is all about !
All it takes is to start a thread in DCT, post in BCT international, pages, chats, groups,... and help others to understand Dash + tech issues. Over this people will come naturally (trust me, i am doing it and it totally works)

In addition to 'daily tasks' Tungfa listed, here is the list of documents that still need to be prepared by Ambassadors: The list can also be found on the trello page (which we all got invites too).

1) Philosophy / Privacy + Anonymity in Finances and the Internet in General: (Philip/ renegademan is working on his "Privacy" intro. Talk to him for collaboration or to see where he stands)

2) Why privacy is important in a free world:
Here is a good web page 10 reasons why privacy matters:
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/20140113044954-2259773-10-reasons-why-privacy-matters

Why Privacy is important Quote from Bruce Schneier in his recent book Data and Goliath.
"Privacy is an essential human need, and central to our ability to control how we relate to the world. Being stripped of privacy is fundamentally dehumanizing and it makes no difference whether the surveillance is conducted by an undercover policeman following us around or by a computer algorithm tracking our every move."

Privacy and Freedom quotes
http://bit.ly/PrivacyFreedomQuotes
3) Why are Cryptocurrencies Important?
Strix is working on an edit of ambrassadorzizo's paper: (collaboration with them or see where they stand)
I believe this has already been started, so you may want to talk to strix or @ambrass to see the progression​

4) What sets DASH apart from other Cryptos? In General? Specifically?
A hard working developer team? A long list of volunteers? Better Tech? Any Thoughts?
5) Easy quick ones: Note: Wait until Evan (who is working on a guide) releases the current updated guide - If Evan is not writing this guide, then lets find out who is, or lets get someone too. When the guides are done we can make videos out of them as well.
- how to use instantx
- how to use darksend
6) Investment Information:
Alex-ru wrote this paper: https://darkcointalk.org/threads/darkcoin-an-assessment-of-its-investment-potential.4140/#post-43814
Maybe we can use this/or parts / (lets edit) for the Investment Section?
7) Slides - Why InstantX is much better than 0 confirmations, even for small purchases:
Someone with graphic experience should help with slides. Images sometimes speak louder than words.​

This is a short list, obviously there's more. Some people may be working on these already so please communicate to avoid double work. Most of these guides have been sitting in our trello "guides to do" section for a while now. We should focus on the tasks at hand so the Ambassadors can shift their focus to approaching potential merchants. These tasks are small, the longer we wait to do them the harder it will be to get the motivation to actually do them.
 
Hi Group. Who's our ambassador for Western Canada? What if any thing can I do in this part of Canada. Would there be an interest for a Canadian Ambassadors meet up?
 
Another Great “Ambassador Project”
(which shows us all what is actually possible, Ambassador or not, getting the Dash word out is what it is all about)
