Marketing SOPs
One of the projects we have between now and Alpha is to document how to create each of our primary release deliverables in the form of a SOP[0]. You can see our current SOPs here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Marketing_SOPs#How_to_contribute. Some are more polished than others. Of course, I had to start by making a SOP on how to make SOPs. :) https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Creating_a_Marketing_SOP It makes use of the (also new) Marketing SOP template, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Template:Marketing_SOP. That template is meant to be a suggestion/aide to make life easier, so don't feel compelled to stick to it if you think a different format will work better for you. --Mel [0] Standard Operating Procedure - we used to call them HOWTOs, but I switched the term to be more consistent with the terminology other teams use (specifically, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:Infrastructure_SOPs). The HOWTO pages have been redirected/recategorized to reflect this. -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list

This was inspired by the Infrastructure Team SOPs, so I've also shared back with them what we've done: https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-infrastructure-list/2009-December/msg00058.html Different teams within Fedora have different practices and ways of doing things, and if we see an idea that we like - no matter where it's from - then we should try to adopt it, and share our results back upstream. ;) Another good example of this is our Trac queue, which we didn't have until midway through the F12 release cycle - it was inspired by seeing how the Design Team kept track of work requests using their queue. --Mel -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list

Different teams within Fedora have different practices and ways of doing things, and if we see an idea that we like - no matter where it's from - then we should try to adopt it, and share our results back upstream. Another good way of sharing ideas: blogging! This one should hit the Planet shortly. http://blog.melchua.com/2009/12/15/please-steal-this-sop/ If you don't already have a blog on Planet, this is a great time to start. There are instructions on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_Fedora_Planet - ask on-list or in-channel if you have any questions. I'm done now. :) --Mel -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
