It's only the broad outlines of the marketing strategy that need to be kept in sync with the developers, not every little article or twitter. It's fine as long as people don't march off in a direction the developers aren't comfortable with, or make promises the developers aren't sure they can commit to. The logo is there for anyone to use, but if you're going to mail out 15,000 flyers to every Python-web developer, you might at least mention it first. Or, as has come up, whether Django-bashing is a good idea. Or what size the sun-yellow pony should be.
