<PRE>Le 2010-09-21 09:36, Graham Lauder a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> This is by way of an introduction and putting my hand up
</I>&gt;<i> I've been the MarCon (Marketing Contact) for New Zealand for OOo since about
</I>&gt;<i> 2005 and been around the OOo project since the early days.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> My original introduction to Linux was Mandrake 8.0 but became a little
</I>&gt;<i> disenchanted with it around the 10.1 period and I moved to SuSE, however I've
</I>&gt;<i> always been a fan of many of the features that made it unique.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I have long wished for a true community driven, Desktop  RPM distribution that
</I>&gt;<i> is Simple End-User friendly.  MCC set Mandrake/Mandriva apart for
</I>&gt;<i> unsophisticated users and I think that forking at this point is great.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Obviously my strength is in marketing and training and I'd like to get a
</I>&gt;<i> Mageia  marketing project of the ground right now, gather together some like
</I>&gt;<i> minded marketing enthusiasts and take Mageia to a world of new users.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> A marketing project would be useful to the project at this juncture to create
</I>&gt;<i> branding, formulate a strategic market plan, source graphic art and build
</I>&gt;<i> community.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> If there is general agreement with this proposal, I would then like to request
</I>&gt;<i> a marketing ML so we can keep the prattling about strategies and branding and
</I>&gt;<i> logos and all that stuff off the devs list. I have server space available to
</I>&gt;<i> set up a marketing Wiki and Art repository and for Docs as well if required.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Cheers
</I>&gt;<i> GL
</I>&gt;<i>

Hi Graham:

Here is a quote from Romain d'Alverny who left this message on that list 
re: when will job assignations be set.

-----------------

We're setting up a temp wiki to start listing people roles, a blog, a
basic website and discussing for basic hosting services. We expect to
post an update by this evening about all this + the org. statutes and
registration and the following steps. Stay tuned.

Cheers,

Romain

People should take direction from this.
