Anything else to work on this ticket in the meanwhile? 21:13:22 bkp: Did you catch the latest feedback on the brochure? 21:13:32 There's a few more comments now, but I think this is the last round of feedback. 21:13:41 After this, I think it will be good to hit the press. 21:14:15 jflory7: I did not. I did not monitor while I was gone, and TBH I thought feedback was done. 21:14:28 Will look immediately and update files. 21:14:35 * decause doesn't have any additional things, other than Fedora PyCon housing has been booked 21:14:42 bkp: Okay, just take a peek in the ticket and take a look. I think it should be mostly straightforward. 21:14:54 jflory7: Ack. My bad. 21:14:59 about the second ? from comment 5 I may 21:15:00 No worries! 21:15:44 #action bkp Look at the latest feedback in Ticket #219 for the Python brochures and incorporate it into the brochure; add newest files to the ticket 21:16:09 #agreed Once the latest Python brochure changes are incorporated, it should be good-to-print 21:16:15 decause++ Sounds good. 21:16:40 So, bkp, I think this is all specific items that we wanted to check in with you. :) 21:16:46 As for the rest of this ticket... 21:17:09 jflory7: Ack: Thanks, out. 21:17:16 Is there anything else we want to work on beyond the brochures and what we want to do next? 21:17:22 bkp: Thanks for coming by! 21:17:24 bkp++ 21:19:56 will look over it in current form later but not thinking so 21:20:50 I'm thinking we check back in on this after the two existing action items are complete 21:21:03 sgtm 21:21:11 bkp is going on the brochure, and I'll be working on creating the categories. 21:22:38 #agreed We will check back in with this ticket and future plans later on. bkp is working on the brochure and getting it updated with new feedback and jflory7 is working on putting the raw notes into a more readable format in the ticket. 21:22:57 #info === Ticket #222 === 21:23:01 #link https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/222 21:23:06 #info "Publicizing "Fedora affiliates" (or groups using Fedora)" 21:23:11 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Affiliates_SOP 21:23:14 Any new updates to share on this ticket? 21:23:23 jbishop: If you're around, have anything to share? 21:23:53 Not much, though I did transfer my notes over to the wiki. The link is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Scratch/Affiliates 21:24:42 jbishop: good start 21:25:21 My next start is to write some actual copy for the headings. 21:25:27 next step* 21:26:25 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Scratch/Affiliates 21:26:47 jbishop++ 21:26:47 * jflory7 takes a read 21:27:49 #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Scratch/CurrentAffiliates 21:28:14 * linuxmodder delayed to reply helping with a funny efi install in #fedora 21:28:50 jbishop: This is looking like a good start to me. You said you're still working on adding more things in? 21:29:42 jflory7, Yeah. I'd like to add blurbs to each of the headings on the Affiliates page to make them more exciting. 21:29:54 #idea A possible advantage for affiliates is to have their logos and organization info on a public location, like the sponsors page. 21:29:58 #link https://getfedora.org/sponsors 21:30:28 jbishop: Okay, cool, sounds like a plan then. Think it would be good to go by next week? 21:30:37 I'll do what I can. 21:31:05 Sure thing. We can check in next week. My train of thinking is that once it's in a form you're happy about, we can ship it off to the mailing list for feedback among the rest of the team. 21:31:25 Sounds good. 21:31:43 #idea For educational affiliates, it would be a good idea to understand how they use Fedora in their school(s) and what students use Fedora installations for 21:31:47 now let's populate it :) 21:31:55 * jflory7 is doing some brainstorming with #ideas right now 21:32:51 #idea Affiliates could have some kind of special mention in local Fedora events (i.e. FUDcons) or maybe even the premier Fedora event, Flock? Would need extra consideration for this part. 21:33:01 Do you think there should be a separate section for educational affiliates? 21:33:06 Hmmmm... 21:33:11 decause: What do you think of that? ^^ 21:33:14 Like a subhead on the current affiliates page? 21:33:38 * jflory7 weighs the pros and cons in his head 21:34:00 jflory7: I think that for planning purposes, we keep them all in the same place for now. Putting EDU's on the sponsors page seems odd though 21:34:07 brainstorming is good though 21:34:20 On one hand, it gives a targeted approach towards educational institutions and could be a great way to show other schools / universities examples of other schools running Fedora. But then it also separates them away a little bit too much, and if we're just getting started, we may not have as many affiliates. 21:34:29 decause++ 21:34:35 Oh, wait-- 21:34:42 The sponsors page was just an example. :) 21:34:45 I think that talking mostly about the publicity/light that we bring as a benefit is good. Also mentioning being more tightly connected to upstream devs is good 21:34:50 jflory7: yeah, figured 21:34:52 So instead of getfedora.org/sponsors, it could getfedora.org/affiliates 21:35:01 jflory7: thats def more like it 21:35:13 * decause misses http://fedoraproject.org 21:35:39 anywho 21:35:57 So, jbishop, let's find an #action here for you. 21:36:41 #proposedaction jbishop Continue working on the Affiliates and Current Affiliates wiki pages for now and try to bring it closer to a final draft. Once ready, share the pages on the Marketing mailing list to get feedback among the rest of the team. 21:36:45 Sound good? 21:36:50 Sounds good. 21:36:53 PErfect. 21:36:59 #action jbishop Continue working on the Affiliates and Current Affiliates wiki pages for now and try to bring it closer to a final draft.
