Will there be any call conference this month for the marketing team?

you likely have been noticing, that the founding of the TDF has significantly reduced contributers to the MP. As well, I have been posting a couple of weeks ago, that I'm more or less on sick leave as I had an injury with my left hand, consequently I can only use the right one (fortunately I'm right-handed) to type. Hence, the page you are referring too has the following note on top: "The next Marketing ConfCall is deferred to an yet unknown point in time, due to staffing problems of the Marketing Project"

The splint I'm wearing at the moment is hopefully removed next Tuesday, hence I'm hoping to be able to work fully again on Wednesday.


Looking at the schedule there hasn't been any proposed date for it. AFAIK there were some work being addressed on the Strategic Marketing Plan and updates happening on the branding and tech events.


So, before thinking about ambitious projects like the SMP, I would like to do things in the right order. First of all, I want to find out, how many active contributers we still have for the MP. If we find out, there are still enough, we can resume with the conference calls again.

Before the TDF has happened, I already had an discussion with Florian, that it needs more than two continually contributing persons to successfully drive the MP. There's indeed a significant basic load in administrative work to manage. My idea was --and Florian agreed-- to reorganize the MP completely. Rather than continuing the (for the MP) insufficient concept of lead and co-lead, it would IMHO be better to refine responsibilities in order to be able to assign clearly defined topical fields to several people. I'm thinking about categories like press officer, standards, education, events, branding, website maintenance etc. If we can manage to set-up such team we should also be well prepared to work on the SMP.

Best regards,
Peter
