In particular, we want are thinking about RHQ as an upstream and also
as a sub-project.  There are slightly different things these audiences
need.

FWIW, incorporating projects such as RHQ is exactly what our umbrella
efforts should be doing.

For this year we are using the Fedora Project open community
infrastructure.  For example, the marketing noise is coordinated
through Fedora Marketing:

marketing at lists.fedoraproject.og

We already have plans with Red Hat's PR team to do a collaborative
press release that goes out after we have confirmed status as a
mentoring organization.  We'll definitely have to keep this list in
the loop, but most of the work will happen there.
