Most of this page is taken from an email Jon Roberts sent to the marketing list proposing making the marketing plan time based, and task focused.
In terms of a normal Fedora release cycle:
Contents |
1st and 2nd months
Press Activities
- Gathering reviews from previous release - wiki
- Highlighting the positive comments - RHM (for now) + own blogs
- Answering the negative (where applicable) - forums, news sites, blog posts
- Highlight freedom, features and first when answering negative
Push for new contributors
- Need to review join page. A generic process for all SIGS/Teams might be useful
FUDCon
- Video, contributor stories, hackfest info, talk recordings, plans for what's to come!
- Collect individual's blog posts, share them on RHM
- Videos to go to Fedora TV (can include contributor stories, talks etc)
3rd and 4th months
LinuxTag/FISL
- Talk about interaction with other projects, more contributor stories, videos etc
- Collect individual's blog posts, share them on RHM
- Videos to go to Fedora TV (can include contributor stories, talks etc)
Press Activities
- Stories about Fedora infrastructure - how great a community to contribute through
- RHM
- need to co-ordinate interviews and editorial content
- Should probably try and get an article in some publications about this aspect of Fedora.
- Working with upstream
- blogs
- Transifex would be a good highlight here
- Re-spins
- RHM
- own blogs
- editorial content + interviews
- Contacting editors/writers to start pointing out work going on with
beta and where they can find out more info on key features
- Need to co-ordinate with RH - have a single point of contact (press@fedoraproject.org?), think it's important to try and work through community here (but then that's my opinion!), this was a slight problem in previous release when RH and I both contacted some magazines about similar topics.
- Arrange for external interviews - podcasts etc - with developers and contributors
- Need a list of podcasts and other online media.
- Need a list of contributors willing to be interviewed!
5th and 6th months
FUDCon
- Talk about interaction with other projects, more contributor stories, videos etc
- Should collect individual's blog posts, share them on RHM
- Videos to go to Fedora TV (can include contributor stories, talks etc)
Interviews with developers
- Wiki and RHM for now.
- Need to know upcoming features to start this
Websites
- Kick ass pretty feature summary
- Wiki for text, need websites and art for look
- Home page countdown
Art team
- New banner
- CD artwork
FREEDOM & FIRST
- Need editorial content - RHM and own blogs.
- Leader interviews
- Exactly as last time - these worked very *well*
