FUDCon Toronto: please take the 5-minute feedback survey
FUDCon Toronto (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon:Toronto_2009) is over - our largest FUDCon yet! We'd love to get your thoughts on how it went, so: * If you attended FUDCon Toronto, either in-person or remotely via Fedora Live, please take this survey and tell us what you thought. * If you didn't attend FUDCon Toronto but wanted to, please take this survey and tell us how we can help you get to the next one. * If you didn't want to go to FUDCon Toronto, please take this survey and tell us why - it's anonymous. ;-) The survey is available at http://fedoraproject.limequery.org/index.php?sid=34266lang=en There are 29 questions, most of the yes/no variety; the survey takes less than 5 minutes to complete (I just timed myself). A special thanks to Robyn Bergeron, Yaakov Nemoy, and the rest of the Fedora Marketing team for designing the survey so it *can* be completed in less than 5 minutes! Questions are previewable at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FUDCon_survey. The survey will be active from 12/16/2009 through 1/8/2010, and we'll be analyzing and announcing the results shortly after it closes. If you're curious about the process, interested in helping us analyze the results, or have any questions in general, join the conversation on the Fedora Marketing mailing list (https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list). --Mel -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
Re: example content
Because it's brainstorm time and I'm procrastinating on FUDCon accounting... ;) * FWN podcast, http://www.braincache.de/wp/2009/11/15/fwn-fedora-weekly-news-201. * the http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-music-list might have more suggestions / be able to come up with something audio-related * SVG versions of the one-page release notes are at http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/collateral/release%20notes/f12/ and might make a nice hey, try Inkscape prompter. * GIMP-transformed images of Fedora contributors alongside their originals and some how we did this notes - see the Do It With Fedora! section in the middle of http://duffy.fedorapeople.org/temp/woot/page1.png for inspiration * https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Statistics in spreadsheet format adding up total downloads * a screencast on how to use http://fedoraproject.org/join-fedora to go from I'm interested! to I have a FAS account and am posting an intro on a mailing list? or I'm on IRC! or something of the sort. --Mel PS: These are also the kinds of things the Marketing team can make on request - just ask at https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/newticket. ;) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
Last call for talking points - what makes you excited about F12?
If you've got a moment for some last-minute help... We (Marketing) will be freezing the F12 talking points list today, and are still somewhat light in the what makes Fedora awesome for admins and developers? categories. Right now we have libguestfs and kvm improvements for admins and maybe moblin for developers, but there must be more - and more reasons why they're awesome (why *is* libguestfs something that makes admins happy?). We figured you would know. The features list is at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/12/FeatureList. If you've got a moment, please take a look at that, then edit https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F12_talking_points with the things that are making you (as admins and devels) happy about F12 coming out. Help us promote the heck out of your work. ;) Thanks! --Mel PS: I know this is last-minute notice - sorry about that. We're still learning how to do things on a schedule, and next time around we'll put the call out here much earlier. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
Re: Last call for talking points - what makes you excited about F12?
PS: I know this is last-minute notice - sorry about that. We're still learning how to do things on a schedule, and next time around we'll put the call out here much earlier. Is there a particular reason today is the last day instead of some date closer to the release? We need to brief Ambassadors on Talking Points at Beta release (9/22) so they need to be complete by then, so we have to freeze the list asap to give us enough time to find writers, and give the writers enough time to write them. (http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-12/f-12-marketing-tasks.html) (Feel free to push back if this schedule sounds unreasonable, btw; it probably could use some patches for the next cycle in terms of having more time for getting dev feedback.) --Mel -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list

The schedule itself might have been fine but it still looks rather early to me. If you want to collect feedback from developers, one day is definitely not going to be enough. Atleast three days or so needs to be provided and you usually need more than one reminder to get as much feedback as you can. Otherwise you are going to end up with a rather small list which is not meaningful. Yep. I agree completely - time for developer/admin feedback isn't built into the marketing schedule, but should be. I'll make sure this gets changed for F13. (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Talk:Marketing_F12_schedule) Thanks for the feedback on feedback. :) --Mel -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
