Or was that too cumbersome a process? The MarCon structure was detailed on the outdated marketing plan, I think it still lives on the mwiki, under Marketing Project-Maketing Contacts: https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Strategic_Marketing_Plan#Marketing_Objectives The process wasn't cumbersome, however it required a more active and organized marketing area of the project, starting with a lot of gathered information on 'the userbase', events, etc. > > > J.

Generally journalists expect a quick response. So we don't want to advertise a named media contact, someone who has a "day job" and goes on vacation, etc. Instead we advertise the pr...@openoffice.apache.org address and then the PMC finds an appropriate person to follow up, based on who is available at the time. This has worked well. Also, we make a distinction between: 1) Someone being interviewed as a contributor to OpenOffice, but expressing their own views and not officially speaking on behalf of the project. 2) Someone wanting an official statement on behalf of the project. We're glad to help with #1, but we don't put a lot of structure around it. Regards, -Rob > > J. M.

RE: Preparing for interview on Chilean TV show
Thank you, Andrea, that is helpful. Is there enough need for this that we should explore having contacts by country/language again? Or was that too cumbersome a process? J. M. Grenier, M.Ed.
