[ubuntu-marketing] Upcoming Meeting and Wiki Update
I have reorganized and redesigned the team wiki at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam Please explore the new pages i've created. There is a new & press page to get media coverage through press releases that could also be distributed to LoCo teams to release their own custom releases. There is a materials page where we can post materials for teams and individuals to use and create their own local-specific content from and a resources page to link to information valuable to marketing Ubuntu. I'm hoping this will bring the marketing team back to life! After much discussion in the IRC channel, we've scheduled a meeting for Wednesday, February 27th at 00:00 UTC. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Meetings/Minutes/2008-02-27 Will someone be able to log the meeting? We will discuss plans for a Hardy Release Campaign as well as a plan for regular meetings. Please contribute to the agenda. -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list ubuntu-marketing@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
[ubuntu-marketing] Hardy alpha 5 release notes
Thursday is another alpha milestone for hardy, Hardy Alpha 5. Again the release notes from the last milestone have been imported[1]. Does anyone have some time in the next couple of days to help refresh the content again for the upcoming alpha? In particular, the screenshots may need some freshening for any UI changes over the past month or two. Thanks, -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

Re: [ubuntu-marketing] LoCo Map Proposal
Can someone use the Google Maps or Mapplets API to create one central map for all teams? http://code.google.com/apis/maps/ http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/mapplets/ On Feb 18, 2008 12:35 PM, Athanasios Lefteris <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Feb 18, 2008 6:12 PM, Danny Piccirillo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > wrote: > > Yes, similar, but it would be a google map and it would show where > approved > > teams exist, where new teams exist, and where no teams exist. > > An non-interactive map of all approved loco teams exists in > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoTeamWorldMap (didn't have the time to do > the unapproved ones yet).

Re: [ubuntu-marketing] LoCo Map Proposal
Yes, similar, but it would be a google map and it would show where approved teams exist, where new teams exist, and where no teams exist.

[ubuntu-marketing] I forgot...
Hello again... I would like to introduce myself. My name is Rubén and I have participated actively in the community since october 2005, first through the forums, later with the Norwegian team (mainly assisting with InstallFests) and last year I started the Ubuntu Ecuador LoCo Team. I have been using GNU/Linux since 1998 and ubuntu since march 2005 (Hoary beta or something along the lines with Gnoppix). I joined the marketing team in 2006 and have not really been that loud in my participation here, but rather working with CD, stickers and general Ubuntu distribution in the cold. As part of the Spanish documentation team my aim is to get the UWN (Called NSU in Spanish: http://doc.ubuntu-es.org/NSU ) up and running so that it can be an instrument for all the Spanish speaking LoCo teams (we are almost 20) in order to inform and get traction within their local communities on what Ubuntu is and its development from week to week, so that people see what's happening and get involved. I have already got lots of help from people here in the team, and I'm looking forward to hopefully be a resource for some of you too.

[ubuntu-marketing] Interview in the UWN & Spanish link template update
Hello people! I noticed that the last issues of the UWN do not have an interview with some member of the community even though there has been such interviews (i.e @ http://behindmotu.wordpress.com/) which are lots of fun and give a closer look at the people working within the project. Is there any particular reason for the interviews not coming along with the UWN? Another thing I want to voice is a template change: The Spanish translation team (http://doc.ubuntu-es.org) have now a fixed URL for the UWN Spanish translation which should be aupdated in the UWN template: http://doc.ubuntu-es.org/NSU/Edicion_Actual Thanks in advance! best regards, Rubén - Hubuntu https://launchpad.net/~hubuntu -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list ubuntu-marketing@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
