4 foundations
I'm writing my FOSDEM trip report, and I wanted to link to a page that specifically explains Fedora's 4 foundations. Does one exist that I don't know about? If not, I think one should be created. --Max -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list

Press release - Red Hat + Fedora @ SCaLE 7x
http://www.redhat.com/about/news/prarchive/2009/scale.html Red Hat and the Fedora Project to Present at Southern California Linux Expo * * * Fedora offers a complete set of tools for generating a customized distribution. The output format can be installable CDs or DVDs, or Live images suitable for CD/DVD or USB keys. These tools allow sub-communities to consume and contribute to FOSS using a platform that is geared toward their specific needs. In his presentation Fedora Remix, Clint Savage, regional ambassador for the Fedora Project, will demonstrate the toolset available in Fedora and how those tools can be used to fill a variety of needs for the hobbyist, IT administrator or the FOSS advocate. * * * -- Paul W.

Schedule/Calendar Around FUDCons
Hey Everyone, I am trying to work on the larger general calendar template. Like we said, it should run from FUDCon - 6 weeks post release. Starting around FUDCon, what tasks do we usually have to take care of? Right now, I have posting announcements to community sites and planet, notifying press/directing/answering inquiries, write ups for rh/fedora owned publications, planning marketing activities for fudcon. Is there anything else that should be on there? Is someone currently doing something now that we should be taking off their plate? Thanks, Jack -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
