Hey all! This week's meeting just came to a close, although we are still
continuing in #fedora-mktg. We mostly focused on building / generating
our press kits and what that will like (in terms of what we're including
and how it would fit into our release schedule) along with our talking
points (although we're more or less discussing this part in channel now).
Thanks everyone for participating, see you in channel or at next week's
meeting!

* LINK: https://fedoramagazine.org/hello-modern-paste/ (jwf,
14:09:26)
* Fedora Infrastructure officially migrated our old pastebin service
to a more modern and clean paste site. You can read more info in the
article on the Fedora Magazine. (jwf, 14:10:00)
* Action items from last meetings (jwf, 14:11:35)
* LINK:
https://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/teams/marketing/marketing.2017-02-21-13...
(jwf, 14:11:40)
* How This Works: We look at past #action items from the last meeting
for quick follow-up. If a task is completed, we move on to the next
one. If it isn't, we get an update and re-action it if needed. If no
status, we'll try to get a quick update and move forward. (jwf,
14:11:53)

for maintaining and creating a press kit for our release cycle

* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-marketing/issue/242 (jwf, 14:12:44)
* Left off with discussion about git forge and what should be included
in the press kit. Can make a quick decision on where we want to host
this, then focus more on the content that we wanted to put in there
and how we want to start building it. (jwf, 14:12:50)
* LINK:
https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/marketing@lists.fedoraproje...
(jwf, 14:12:56)
* AGREED: Marketing team will host press kit in Pagure (which *does*
have a web editor!) and use Markdown as default markup language,
which will also fit into our existing workflow with other repos we
have on Pagure (jwf, 14:31:29)
* What's in a press kit? We suggested: one-page release notes,
background modules (general Fedora info), feature modules (specific
to releases), past press coverage, targeted brochures / flyers
(jwf, 14:32:48)
* ACTION: FranciscoD / bkp Discuss and draft a short proposal of what
one-page release announcements looks like for the press kit, with
(1) timeline for when they should be created during the release, (2)
type of content to include in the announcement, and (3) how it
should be delivered (jwf, 14:50:03)
* ACTION: jwf Draft a simple proposal for what background modules /
past press coverage should be in the press kit, add comment to
ticket #242 for discussion at next meeting (jwf, 14:51:31)
* === Ticket #245: "Create Fedora 26 talking points" === (jwf,
14:51:54)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-marketing/issue/245 (jwf, 14:51:58)
* Talking points officially start today, now that the change window is
closed for Fedora 26. We're still awaiting feedback from the
Council, but we try starting with the raw data that is on the
existing talking points page and try to organize that in a way that
we can work with? We can also try to task outreach to different WGs
/ SIGs, but this depends on if we want to collect information by
technical grouping or by audience. (jwf, 14:52:03)
