</I>&gt;<i> 2011/4/4 Patricia Fraser &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-marketing">trish at thefrasers.org</A>&gt;:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Hi all,
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Two things to be written - the release announcement, and the wrapper
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> words for the testing day procedure (to make a testing day
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> announcement).
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Help welcome!
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Testing day is Friday/Saturday (08/09-04-11), and we want to announce
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> it on release day (tomorrow) and propagate the announcement widely.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Comms plan: release announcement/testing day announcement
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> What: release (alpha, beta or otherwise)
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Who to: Mageia community
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;Open source communities
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;wider community
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> How: &#160; &#160;Mageia blog
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;Distrowatch
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;slashdot
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;other tech news sites
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;Mageia lists - ask list members to forward it to their
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> communities (any we've missed) and i18n team, propagate in their
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> languages please
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I'd structure this a little bit different, although we mean the same:
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> The &quot;Who&quot; is quite clear: the main announcer (ennael?)
</I>&gt;<i> Text proposed by marcomm.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> Where:
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- internally
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - Blog
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - Forum
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - Mageia lists
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- externally
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - Distrowatch
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - slashdot
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - other sites
</I>
Not forgetting facebook, twitter and all others! :)

&gt;<i> &#160;- through i18n:
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - translations of the blog and the download page (as has been done
</I>&gt;<i> for previous announcements)
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- - spreading the announcement to local communities (lists, forums),
</I>&gt;<i> local news sites and online magazines
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Content: &#160;what's being released
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;what's new
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- with link to the release notes
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;where to go to get it
</I>&gt;<i> &#160;- link to the download page
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;welcome to new users
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;encourage new makers / contributors
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;about Mageia
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> To achieve worldwide attention (we should reach this until final) it
</I>&gt;<i> should all be spread within a very tight time span, on the same day.
</I>&gt;<i> People must be plastered with the Mageia announcement, wherever they
</I>&gt;<i> look at that day.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> For the future we should implement a procedure where such
</I>&gt;<i> announcements will be sent to the translators 1 day in advance.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Extra for testing day:
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;damsweb's testing procedure
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;inside marcomm wrapper
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Time to write: marcomm bit, ready by 05-04-11
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160; &#160;testing wrapper, soon as I see damsweb's doc
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> The same procedure in spreading as for the beta announcement,
</I>&gt;<i> following as a sequel - people have to regard both announcements as
</I>&gt;<i> related, the testing day as a follow-up to the release.
</I>
