In the last websites meeting
(http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Websites/Meetings/2008-04-30 ) a
discussion about the path that the websites team should follow was
discussed and so a new vision for the website will be proposed to get
started. One of the hot topics that was discussed is the content
displayed in the fedoraproject.org site. Currently the content used is
not enough for a user to get to know the project and so he must be
redirected to the wiki to find some basic things about fedora project.
As you all might now the marketing team is the one leading the efforts
on how the project is being promoted and as the website is one of the
tools used to promote fedora, the content displayed there should be of
high quality and very representative.
Having that in mind im asking the people here in the marketing team to
join me in the process of generating/providing the content that should
be used in the website. The ones who want to help would work along with
people from the website team, the art team, and the translation guys in
order to have a good and representative website.
So is anyone interested in helping? :)
JonRob has kindly agreed to write the whimsical release announcement for
en_*. I am working on updating the overall process for how that is
handled in all languages. The key is, they derive from these talking
points:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/9/SingleSourceSummary#Release_Talkin…
The process is being updated here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Releases/9/ReleaseAnnouncements
The common practice in the past is to let the whimsical announcement
author run their ideas (and drafts) past whomever they chose, rather
than write it entirely in the open. This preserves the surprise and
some of the fun of this announcement.
Jon -- do that part as you prefer. I'll try to find a way to reflect
that in the process. :)

Hi,
as suggested in the last comment I'm mailing here.
So what do you believe is the best way to present the features of
Fedora Desktop? What are they? How would you present them? Would you
make a video or audio showing or explaining the use of some features
and applications, or would you just put some files that are from that
application so that users see for them self what can be done with
different applications? Something completely different?
Please share your ideas...
Cheers,
Valent.
