the plan has to been promoted by mageia.org to have the proability to 
have a minimum of success. and to complete the plan it is necessary to 
have the partecipation of many people, because i don't have many skills 
needed to complete it.

the problem is that i can only propose because i study economics, not 
information technology. if you read my commments 
(https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40) is what i'm doing since 
mageia born, but i don't think i'm quite useful except for filling some bugs

as above, it's what i'm doing since a lot of time (do you remember the 
critics i made in the MUGS of mandriva? after a few years they 
understood they're wrong and they are  re-implementing something like 
this). the marketing plan is not a waste of time, but it has to be 
shared among all the mageia community, unless it looses the elements 
that makes it a key tool for all the major companies in the world: 
coherence, long-time view, short-time approach, priorities and coherent 
actions.


cheers,
Marcello
