Fedora websites team

We have formed the Fedora websites team, which discusses things on fedora-websites-list[1]. Some have asked me who really owns/controls the websites. Is Marketing accountable? Documentation? How about Infrastructure? Here's how I see it, using this model: * FDP is the umbrella project that is accountable for all content and knowledge management across Fedora. We are growing as fast as we can to cover all these areas. * Marketing is accountable for our message, focus, goals, direction, attitude, etc. As such, they are often responsible for the content and design within the various formal Fedora sites[2]. * Infrastructure is responsible for maintaining the current backends of the sites, and developing new stuff from their own ideas and as responses to RFEs that are filtered to them by FDP and Marketing. Does this make sense to you all? Other thoughts? cheers - Karsten [1] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list This list is for developers, maintainers, designers, and content managers to discuss the various formal Fedora sites. [2] Formal being a better word than 'official', and the formal sites right now are fedora.redhat.com and fedoraproject.org. -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Red Hat SELinux Guide http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/selinux-guide/

let's do marketing in Strasbourg !

Hai there, I read a linux magazine. In this particular magazine, it compared between some various Linux OS. In the fedora section, it identifies fedora as a least-stable OS of any RPM Based OS. And fedora has not yet really impressed europeans. In my local LUG <http://strasbourg.linuxfr.org/wiki-public/>, im the only one with the FC OS, most of them are using debian based OS. We are planning in this february an "OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE DAY<http://strasbourg.linuxfr.org/wiki/jl4>" on 5-7 May 2006. similar to the german's "LINUXTAG". Im not yet communicated about the amount of money being invested. In June 2005, in karlsruhe there was a linuxtag. And fedora core was part of the red-hat advertissement team. some developpers were present. Since i stated before (from the particular magazine) that fedora core has not yet impressed europeans, I wonder if there is a way to advertise fedora core. I mean if i can ask some kind of association/company to send me free stickers or any promotional material associated to FC to this open source event. Yes, I live in France (Strasbourg <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strasbourg>). I wish to know a little more about how it goes with the invitation of the FC developpers and Marketing teams to our event knowing the fact that we don't have a big budget, so that I could talk to the other members of my lug about my plan to have a Fedora Core booth with real FC developpers and Marketing teams. The presence of a Fedora Core booth (even if its with the Red Hat Team) could really attract and make aware to the public that Fedora Core is not only a platform for developping the RHEL.
