Re: Marketing goals, revisited: the 4 Foundations
I am agreeing more with Robin's idea. I now a few people at my university that wold love to work on fedora project..marketing...codingdocumantation and spreading the word..even though it is at a minimal fee...the most important thing though is not the fee...remember NOT the fee...they are looking for something to show on their C.V that they once did something for you. If you access this.you are good to go. I am a computer science student at university and trust me when I say we do have some god skill in that campus that could be used. There is only one weak point.How do u get to know on what criteria these people are chosen.If we can set a standard and make sure this standard is followed then we have succeeded.if not then we shall be in a big problem.

Re: Marketing goals, revisited: the 4 Foundations

I know this can go through in my university but i would like some assistance in knowing maybe how one person set this up so I can go ahead.Do I get any assistance from fedora and in what form? please let me know. thanks, frankie On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 10:30 PM, Neville A.

Re: Marketing goals, revisited: the 4 Foundations
Hi guy, someone needs to look at that campus ambassador page carefully. According to the instructions it claims one is supposed to first get an account thus register as an ambassador.that is okay. the second phase is where the problem comes."register as a campus ambassador" Is this a different program because one the link to do this is not given.according to this one just has to like show their interest like by mailing fellow ambassadors and telling them more or less informing them.please correct me if i am wrong as maybe I am overlooking some issues. thanks On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 10:38 PM, Larry Cafiero wrote: > On Mon, Jan 4, 2010 at 11:30 AM, Neville A.
