I've snipped a fair +bit, but I didn't miss a word! + +Unfortunately I'm only able to mark time between now and Sunday - I'm +on my way to an exhibition for my day-job - but I'll be doing plenty +of thinking. + +><i> It's really great that you stepped over to take the chair for the +</I>><i> marcom team now that the Council is actually seated, and to be +</I>><i> fair, a nod (as you suggest via the semination across the +</I>><i> organization of marketiing material) is required from *somewhere* +</I>><i> on our part - if for no other reason that to NOT get things wrong, +</I>><i> like the details or the message. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Until now, and the point where you offered to represent Marcom in +</I>><i> the Council meetings, I think we were effectively hamstringed in +</I>><i> our ability to move forward - unless it was unilaterally. Something +</I>><i> we didn't want to do, and rightfully so. +</I> +Yes - and that bit about not being unilateral is very, very important! + +><i> In the FOSS community, R&D immediately precedes release. Not like +</I>><i> corporate enterprise where releases can be held until the entire +</I>><i> package can be released as a cohesive web. +</I> +In the corporate environments I've worked in for the last +quarter-century (don't that sound grand?) it's been exactly the same +as in a FOSS project - R&D up to and past the last minute. The only +difference here is we're trying to grow a community rather than a +bank balance - in many ways easier (because one doesn't have to +prevaricate, ever <beam>) and in many ways harder (because bringing a +single voice out of a community of volunteers is like herding cats). +But I think we can do it. (My day job is in adaptive tech, and I +work globally, so I've got a fair idea.) + +><i> > We should prepare all process for beta2 and next releases. Time +</I>><i> > is a bit short for beta1. It took time to release isos and on my +</I>><i> > side I'm just finalizing things. What I suggest is formalize this +</I>><i> > for beta2. WDYT ? +</I>><i> > +</I>><i> +</I>><i> Well Anne, since you asked, and in light of what I related as my +</I>><i> observations above, I would recommend that we give Patricia our full +</I>><i> support going forward with our position of relevance there, and +</I>><i> also to just forget about beta2 and focus on Mageia 1 RC1 or Stable +</I>><i> - it is the second week of April, and there is quite a lot still on +</I>><i> the plate to deliver our complete package for Mageia 1 in June. +</I>><i> +</I>><i> In the meantime, Patricia will be able to engage in the process of +</I>><i> enforcing a place of relevance for Marcom in the Mageia Universe :) +</I> +Agree!
