Hi *, disclaimer, I'm not active in marketing, just lurking, but for completeness' sake On Sat, Jul 9, 2011 at 8:28 PM, Florian Effenberger wrote: > > the participation in the latest marketing conference calls hasn't been > that overwhelming. :/ > [...] > Calls occur too often?

I'd like to add Problems dialing in? to the list of questions. If the answer is "yes", would openmeetings or mumble (i.e. internet based solutions instead of telephone-line based ones) be an alternative for you? (we got testing servers for both so you can play with them see http://www.mail-archive.com/website@global.libreoffice.org/msg05142.html on how to access them) ciao Christian -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Those who did not attend, I would like to ask, on why. :-) I didn't attend the last meeting simply because it fell on a major holiday. Prior to that, I'd been attending the NA marketing meetings & lurking on lists to get a better feel for the org (I'm new to major FOSS projects). Looking forward, I imagine I'll be attending these meets in the future. -Craig -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to marketing+h...@global.libreoffice.org Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
[libreoffice-marketing] making the confcalls more attracting
Hello, the participation in the latest marketing conference calls hasn't been that overwhelming. :/ With this e-mail, I would like to discuss on how we can make these calls more attracting. Those who did not attend, I would like to ask, on why. :-) Calls occur too often? Too rarely? Calls are too long? Too short? Boring content? Language barrier? Wrong time(zone)? Calls just don't fit our way of working? I'm not blaming anyone, I just would like to get information on why the participation rate is so low. If we end up with calls being useless, that's okay, but I would like to avoid planning and organizing such calls, when the interest is rather low. We might end up with solely using the mailing list, or IRC, or Skype - that's what I want to find out. So, I'd like to ask for your humble opinion on that. If you prefer, you can also reply offlist via private mail. Thanks!
