<PRE>-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: RIPEMD160
I noticed that we have a <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-marketing">press at mageia.org.</A> Who is handling that role
account? And our FaceBook Account?
These are things we should be collecting the particulars of, and who are
the managers of those role accounts, etc.
I know Romain brought this up over two months ago, I just went over it
in the list archives, and to my knowledge, a report containing this data
hasn't been presented as of yet.
But I'm not certain that it hasn't, just that it hasn't been presented
on this list or our IRC chan in any of our marcom meetings.
Regardless, we do need a few role accounts, and <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-marketing">username at mageia.org</A>
would be good too for each of us to have too IMO.
And we don't have a marcom group in the forums either, and this was
discussed at length on the list here too (you'll recall the discussions
about whether we would stick with the existing FudForum software we had
been provided or whether we would be moving to other software at the
mageia.org proper site ;) ). Who do we talk to to get this corrected?
Anyway, whichever way we go, or don't go, I was pretty tired when I did
the first write ups, so again, apologies for the typos :)
Also, I was blowing through those last two posts so fast I think I was
thinking SugarSync, then somehow SugarCRM got into my head when I meant
to say VTiger CRM, rather than TigerCRM LOL!
It's good stuff, I support about 30 instances of it in various
enterprises, and can serve the entire organization or just marcom,
whichever.
I recommend the marcom team members each have a look at it here:
<A HREF="http://www.vtiger.com/">http://www.vtiger.com/</A>
Finally, I have to go back and ask again, "Who is, or collectively are,
the people responsible for posting such possibly inappropriate material
on our facebook page like:
<A HREF="http://www.facebook.com/Mageia#!/photo.php?fbid=1371504459899&set=o.157247240967735&theater">http://www.facebook.com/Mageia#!/photo.php?fbid=1371504459899&set=o.157247240967735&theater</A>
???
Is that the kind of message we want to put out there? That of Urinating
in public?
Yes?
Yes Trish, There is a very important place for Marcom in this project,
and that's just another example, IMNSHO, of what happens when we don't
have a standard protocol that is filtered through this part (the marcom
part) of the Mageia Universe.

</I>><i>
</I>><i> I also concur with Patricia regarding what we refer to in technical

</I>><i> articles, etc., for places like below...
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>>><i> 3. Entries in /. and DW have to be made/sent (who does this?)
</I>><i>
</I>><i> One thing the rest of us don't have to wait on is decide where in the
</I>><i> cloud we're going to put our master spreadsheets for our media contacts.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We should decide that right now - this isn't something we need other
</I>><i> aspects of the project to concur on before moving on - it's internal.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We can start with one of those services like SugarSync, DropBox,
</I>><i> GoogleDocs, or (my personal preference) something like TigerCRM that our
</I>><i> Marcom team can utilize to keep track of the myriad of press contacts
</I>><i> and resources we must maintain.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We have our own servers now, and I think a CRM is warranted, but
</I>><i> regardless, we have an immediate need to keep our stuff in the cloud and
</I>><i> share it with each other.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> To the list above, I would also add DZone and DistroWatch. It may sound
</I>><i> a little self serving, but we should have a couple of templates to push
</I>><i> product reviews to several sites too, IMO.
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>>><i> What else?
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I'll of course be releasing my news articles heralding the release of
</I>><i> Mageia 1 Stable in the usual syndicated channels I use.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Oh here's another great site I use a lot, which really has strong Kung

</I>><i>
</I>><i> I'm happy to set up accounts in a few places like that, as well as /.,

</I>><i>
</I>><i> We need our role account[s] (aka personages or various persona) to have
</I>><i> email addresses too. I think three or four to start would be good.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Say, <A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-marketing">mageia-xxx at mageia.com</A> (I could care less about the namiing
</I>><i> convention used, but something relevant and mnemonic).
</I>><i>
</I>><i> After all, we have to verify for all the sites we register with in the
</I>><i> channel, and need an email address for that via our role accounts.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> We've got about an hour less than we did when I made my last post to
</I>><i> this list, until the release of Mageia 1 Stable, in June.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Kindest regards,
</I>><i>
