It would be a great marketing bomb to create mail, or a page where we gather and keep alive in front of the public most of them, and strengthen the image little bit that we are the developers and engineers distro. I think here the introduction of developer assistant, tito, copr, pulp, katello, and more. Have a page with out project, and project logos, and include this within the Fedora.NEXT changes. I propose also to contact with Chris Fisher (ChrisLAS jupiterbroadcasting.com) Matt or with Matt Hartley (Datamotion writer, and co-host of the LAS), and ask an full show that makes it able for us to cooperate together, and gain more contributors. As Linux Action Show is one of the most popular video podcasts, we can gain a lot of people, and high interest. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/144> marketing-team <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing> Marketing team for the Fedora project.

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with Localization plugins for wordpress. It would be awesome to be able to allow translators to localise content (even if we just get coverage for the longer form posts) Thoughts? --ryanlerch

F21 media
by Jiri Eischmann 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

Hi, yesterday in FAmSCo, we started a discussion what media we should produce for F21. We have been producing Multidesktop Live DVD for many releases, but with the Fedora.Next changes we need to revisit it. In FAmSCo, we've pretty much agreed that Multidesktop Live DVD is not very aligned with the Fedora.Next initiative where we want to emphasize the official products and those products should be delivered as clear offerings all the way to the users. Merging them with other spins means that the clear product offering is lost before it reaches the users. Although Multidesktop Live DVD is economically the best solution, it is not from the marketing perspective and doesn't deliver the message of Fedora.Next products. Suggestions that have come up at the meeting: * the Cloud product doesn't really need a DVD media, * having one DVD with Workstation and Server Products, * having separate DVDs with Workstation and Server, * creating additional DVD with other flavors of Fedora (other desktops, many other specialized spins?) if there is enough interest and demand. Christoph Wickert is going to bring it up on the workstation and server group mailing lists and I'd like to start the discussion here because this is very related to marketing. Opinions? :) Jiri P.S. we also discussed replacing DVDs with usb flash drives. As much as we'd love to offer flash drives instead of DVDs it's still not a viable option because flash drives are still 10x more expensive than DVDs. Not much has changed there in the last two years :/

Amazing numbers on Fedora Magazine!
by Joe Brockmeier 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

Hey all, Just peeked at the stats for Fedora Magazine today, and wanted to give a big shout out to everybody for kicking it extra-hard this week. The magazine has been doing pretty well lately in general, with ~2K to ~3K page views on average. Today and yesterday, though, things have been blown out of the water. Yesterday we were >just< shy of 10K page views. Today, we're closing in on 19K and may very well hit 20K. Big, big thanks to Ryan and Matthew for their work on the Shellshock posts. Note that a lot of the traffic is coming from Google/search and much of it seems to be people pulling up the site directly (vs. social media or links from Reddit, etc.). Also, though - big thanks to everybody who's been posting regularly. The regular content is making a big difference. I'm sure this will die down a bit after Shellshock does, but we've got some great momentum. Let's keep it up! Have a great weekend all! jzb -- Joe Brockmeier | Principal Cloud & Storage Analyst jzb(a)redhat.com | http://community.redhat.com/ Twitter: @jzb | http://dissociatedpress.net/

slashdot effect
by Matthew Miller 30 Sep '14

30 Sep '14

So, Slashdot ain't what it used to be*, but one link to my shellshock article at the bottom of a slashdot post covering multiple shellshock things (that is, not even featuring mine) and slashdot is now the top referrer of the last 30 days by a comfortable margin, and that puts it 5 for non-Fedora sources for all time. Conclusion: we should really try to get on slashdot more. * the joke is, of course, that it never was. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader
