Hi Guys I may be a little late with my post but I think we still have time to act on a few things I feel maybe important.
If you guys want I can post them in wiki - but it would help if some decision were made on the mail list. *Goals: * Meet with local government to create long term partnership *My comments:* - I see the agenda more in terms of presentations, will this lead to a long term engagement - What is our goal from this engagement - do we want a long term one and if so how do we convey that. - Can we dig a little into their motivations before we even show up in Spain - happy to take the lead if you can put me in touch with the right contact (or I can dig) - Do they want Gnome - *where, how and why* Meet with local users - Should we use this opportunity to develop these users (not developers) into our cheerleaders - And then this pilot can be scaled to other hackfests & conferences - I feel this could enhance your vision of getting users involved (from donations to any other engagement) - *How - I have no clue?* - *Is this even our goal or am I on a different tangent? * Gnome 3 Videos: (its very possible - its already been discussed - I did not show up for some of the meetings) - I was looking at: http://live.gnome.org/GnomeThreeBrainstorming - Would it be worth spending some time and writing down our: ( I can help with this and that is what I call Integrated Marketing Strategy) - Strategy for Gnome 3 - yes its cool and nice - then what do we want to achieve with the campaign surrounding it? - then what is our marketing strategy - then we make a list of videos we need GNOME Message - We have a lot of them on http://live.gnome.org/GnomeMarketing/CoreMessage - and yes they are all relevant - I'd suggest we develop our USP - Unique Selling proposition Success: Established relationships with local government - Can we define it further - have specific goals e.g. get Zaragoza govt to install Ubuntu with Gnome on 1000 PCs by end of 2010 (I am just saying) - OR give away CDs in schools Attendance from our downstream partners - Can we define it Please comment Regards Bharat
