Helloooooooooo Marketing Fans,
So...... I will be the first to admit that I've been a little lax (okay, actually, super-lax) in the Marketing area lately. Some of this has just been my time, or lack thereof, especially when it comes to meetings and having them, and some of it is simply that nobody else is really insisting on meeting and getting things done and kicking me in the pants about it, either. :)
In the spirit of Getting Things Done, and more generally, having a bit more excitement around this joint, I'd like to get an idea for who's interested in getting the Marketing Train back on the tracks and up to speed. This means: meetings, being a bit more active in IRC, knocking out some of the release-time items, and most importantly, thinking about NEW THINGS we can do either around raising awareness, new things that new contributors can do, or just generally doing new things because doing the same stuff over and over and over is, let's face it, super boring.
In short, just two questions:
1: Who's interested in coming to marketing meetings again, and working on release-related activities?
2: Does anyone have any new and cool ideas in the marketing area that we can pick up and work on?
I'm here with my marketing defibrillators! Let's get it back together, folks. I'd like to just pick up with getting back at least on the meeting train next Tuesday, and we can adjust the time and whatnot if necessary as we go forward.
Other thoughts or comments are welcomed. Flames too. I'm expecting those. :)

You aren't asking us to change passwords too are you?
I am interested in what I can do.

NOt flames, just Love!
I would like to help, my only concern is that marketing meetings were scheduled on my work time, so most of the time I was not available to participate.
I remember great meetings were things were getting done as we proceeded, that was a huge motivator, at least for me. Getting to read the minutes, and then looking for something to tackle, was far less attractive.
I hope defibrillation includes a revision on the meeting time.

Okay. I think that a revision is something we can probably pick up as a point of discussion, but I think at least for our first meeting back we'll keep it where it was (if nothing else, to keep the confusion level low). I've tried moving it in the past, but it's always proved to be just... really, really ugly in terms of accommodating everyone. We can certainly attempt it again, but I'd like to get some steam goin' while we got it. :)

How about a reminder for those of us who don't remember what time it was? :)
