<PRE>2012/2/27 Donald Stewart &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">watersnowrock at gmail.com</A>&gt;:
&gt;<i> Some suggestions:
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Maybe an hour is too long - I think that I would get bored after 20 or
</I>&gt;<i> so minutes.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Theme tune wise, I know a few music people, but what sort of thing is wanted?
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> As for different languages, that would be great, again having shorter
</I>&gt;<i> episodes would help with that.
</I>
I agree to the shorter episodes. Now you have to see what (and how
much) material you have. If you have several different topics you
could do 1 podcast per month, featuring 3 topics each. More time for
one topic may make the listener yawn - until recently the attention
time span for school kids was around 40-50 minutes, recent studies
have shown that their attention on one topic burns out after 20
minutes (that's why we need advertizing on tv!).

Suggestions:

Start with a list of possible episodes including notes, like
 - interview with a packager about updates
   (as non-technical as possible, using the opportunity to tell people
out there about contributing by testing)
 - an application you like best? Describe what you do with it an
reveal all it's secrets to the listeners
 - - - you could do that as a series (&quot;Ma favourite application&quot;),
using 10 Minutes in each podcast
 - find exhibitions with Mageia's participation and try to get one of
the participants for a &quot; &lt;event_name&gt; Special&quot;

 - talk about the various sites of the Mageia Web world - there are
more that a forum and a download page. :)
 --- (some time needed for research)

Make a list of people you would listen to in such a podcast, then hunt
them down and tie them to a soundrecorder... ask listeners who they
would like to hear, ask for feedback, etc.

Build a structure which you will follow in each podcast:
 - Intro (what will we hear today),
 - News about Mageia, the organisation, the community
 - Feedback about last podcast
 - Timeout (aka music)
 -  continue with what the intro promised :)

Where you would host the podcasts can stay open until the end of your
initial planning. You may think about
 - a website with topics in the queue, reports about the project,
links to the download / archive
 - promoting the podcasts (intro of episodes) on facebook &amp; twitter

After you think you may have enough stuff for the first 3 start
looking for the people you need for these 3 and then start producing.
Start on #4-6 early so you are always ready to send something else if
your host had a bus-error one hour before a live interview.

Of course these are just suggestions, coming from the knowledge how
other people are doing it, ideas how I would go about it, etc. One
thing all have in common: most important is contents (good &amp; enough),
everything else is the more easy part.
