Hello, I have just joined the mailing list and I'd like also to get involved somehow in the Marketing project, I don't know exactly how I can help at this point but we will find out the best for all parties.
I am 40 and located in Madrid, Spain (EU). I am interested in Open Source since some years ago and involved in software engineering since 1990 in different roles. Currently I own a small consulting firm specialised in open source for HR ( http://www.adiante-csi.com), I also write in a blog on open source in the R&D body of regional gov. of Madrid. ( http://weblogs.madrimasd.org/softwarelibre) unfortunately this is only in Spanish. I have joined OpenOffice marketing project because I'd like to: - Learn from the inside how a open source project can be promoted. - Help OpenOffice to gain market share in the Spain area - Qualify my company to provide our customers with support, CDs and whatever services around OO. What can I do? Depends on many things, but I feel comfortable with: - Writting technical and marketing material, either in English (I suppose there are tons of people that can do this better than me) and Spanish (maybe this is more interesting...) - Providing help and guidance for Spain based users - Carry out presentations, conferences, seminars in Spain. Particularly in Madrid area - Help to maintain the spanish web site. So, this is more or less. I hope we can work and learn together around this mailing list. 2008/1/30, Florian Effenberger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > Hello, > > you recently applied for the 'Observer' status in the OpenOffice.org > Marketing Project, http://marketing.openoffice.org > > ... > We would like to ask you to introduce yourself to our community, so > other people know who you are and what part you want to take.
