Hi all! SCALE (the Southern California Linux Expo) is coming up in a week in Los Angeles, and if it's anything like last year, we're going to see a few thousand people come through the expo hall during Fri-Sun.
Apart from OSCON, this is probably the biggest event that we attend on the West coast (and perhaps in the US overall), and I thought that all of you might have some good suggestions regarding marketing strategies. Of course, brainstorming new ideas is relevant for other upcoming conferences as well :-) Each of these topics is probably worthy of its own discussion thread, so I'm going to send out 4 emails. I hope your inboxes can take the load... :P Topics: * ORGANIZING VOLUNTEERS * LIBREOFFICE FOR ANDROID * UPGRADING LIBREOFFICE/OPENOFFICE * DOCUMENT FREEDOM DAY --- ORGANIZING VOLUNTEERS At SCALE I'm going to be collecting names and email addresses for everyone who's interested in - Contributing to LibreOffice in one of our teams - Participating in a Hackfest or LibreFest - Corporate sponsorship of events (e.g. hackfest) - Marketing/outreach of LibreOffice in their local community - Helping to represent LibreOffice at a future conference => Are there any other categories I should include on the sign-up sheet? As I've mentioned previously, I think that some kind of tool for helping to keep track of LibreOffice/TDF-associated people would be great (CiviCRM?). This structure would also be helpful for coordination with our local TDF chapters/partner organizations around the world. --R -- Robinson Tryon QA Engineer - The Document Foundation LibreOffice Community Outreach Herald qu...@libreoffice.org -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: marketing+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
