=== F13 Marketing Preparation ===
See you next week!
The Marketing team is organizing resources for the Fedora 13 marketing push<ref>http://poelstra.fedorapeople.org/schedules/f-13-draft/f-13-marketing-tasks.html</ref>. The general consensus from the 12-8 meeting was that we need to start earlier and work faster so that we aren't rushing at the time of GA. Also, effort will go into making sure that the schedule syncs properly with other SIGs and teams on Fedora.

At FUDcon this week, [[User:Mchua|Mel Chua]], [[User:itbegins|Simon Birtwistle]], and countless other awesome people participated in a hackfest to push Fedora Insight into production<ref>http://blog.melchua.com/2009/12/07/zikula-hackfest/</ref>. As of Tuesday, it is nearly ready for deployment, however, some last minute help of [[User:quaid|Karsten Wade]] to create<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Zikula_content_types</ref> a list of content that the team is interested in including into Fedora Insight. Fedora Insight should be ready to go by this time next week.

"As you probably know, I've been hanging around Fedora for a few years now.  I helped improve the events that Fedora attends by creating the Fedora EventBox.  It's been going really well, but this week, I saw a big improvement because of just a few people at SxSW.

[[Fedora-tour]]'s development started this week, with [[User:rrix|Ryan Rix]] filing an infrastructure ticket for FedoraHosted space<ref>https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/1855</ref> and setting up a git repo on his FedoraPeople space<ref>http://hackersramblings.wordpress.com/2009/12/04/thinking-about-design-fedora-tour-content/</ref>. Fedora-tour developers are looking for contributors to the project.

At FUDcon, [[User:ynemoy|Yaakov Meir Nemoy]] wanted to create a survey for attendees to fill out and give feedback on the event. Looking for a suitable tool turned up limesurvey<ref>http://limesurvey.org</ref>, however, it was found that LimeSurvey was still in review<ref>https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508817</ref>. [[User:Sparks|Eric Christensen]] will update the package and [[User:rbergero|Robyn Bergeron]] and [[User:rrix|Ryan Rix]] will be setting up an instance on Fedora's Publictest servers.

SxSW photobooth awesomeness and its future

Clint Savage discussed[1] strategies for making the "SxSW photobooth awesomeness and its future" more universal to FAmNA events.

"As you probably know, I've been hanging around Fedora for a few years now. I helped improve the events that Fedora attends by creating the Fedora EventBox. It's been going really well, but this week, I saw a big improvement because of just a few people at SxSW. I would like to thank Mo, Emily, Spot, Jared and anyone else who helped make the booththere awesome!

But there's more we can do with this, and that's where I think the value lies. For one, it is cool that each participant get's a nice little card printed right there with a QR code so they can go retrieve it. But it would also be nice to let them share their photos on social networking sites like Facebook, identi.ca, foursquare, twitter, etc. I can also see gaining contributors from this concept, in that they are now 'part' of Fedora's legacy. Maybe having them show up on the FedoraProject front page when an event is happening? I seriously think that this is stuff that everyone in Fedora would love."
