I think we're likely to accept this - it seems like a good fit for what
we want to do at Flock. And I'd definitely like everyone interested to
get there to talk about it. (Unfortunately, Eduard can't make it.)
Thanks for starting this thread!

I think getting FOSS and Linux in early is vital, and I'd love Fedora
to be part of this, but as a target it strikes me as even harder than
Fedora on phones - something else I'd love to see, but not somewhere
where we can easily make the difference with resources we have. If we
do want to do this, we would probably be best targetting STEM teachers
and curriculum builders - but I don't see that making much headway
without significant dedicated resources. (Anyone want to write a grant
or something?)

[marketing] Flock 2017 - talk proposal

2017-06-22 Thread Gabriele Trombini
Hello team,

I've submitted s talk proposal for the Flock 2017 (sorry for the late
notice), and I'd like discuss with the team the guiding lines for it.

The topic is:
"Marketing - tasks and visions
We would see the light: an overview of marketing that today actually
struggling but that dreams a bright future becoming true"

I still don't know if will be accepted or not, but in the wait of a
response, I'd like to know if there are any argument I should touch you
think it's worth to explain.

I saw the project report Eduardo and Brian explained to the Council, and,
of course, I'd like to add some extrapolations for the talk (just for
reminder) if the authors will allow.

My idea is, at first, to illustrate what mktg is doing, tasks and jobs, and
what we need to get really productive for the continuous work we have to do.

In the second, and most important for my purpose,  part (the talk is 60
min. long), I'd like to give hints to the next FOSCo (or whatever else)
about what marketing is expecting by the new body (if it happens) and
defining some future strategy proposal to the Council. At the end give the
spark for a sort of mindsharing with the attending people to get new ideas
(and project) to follow.

We know other distros are stronger than us in the marketing, so I'd like to
reach them (and overcome them, if possible) with the community help.

This is only an idea sketch that I'd like develop with you.

If there's someone who want to be a co-speaker please show up, I'll be glad
about that.

Thanks

Gabri
