Spread Fedora

[Beth Lynn Eicher]

I attended the marketing talk at the Southern California Linux Expo...

http://www.socallinuxexpo.org/scale9x/presentations/two-girls-one-talk-th...

The following question came to my mind 2 days after seeing that talk.

The spreadubuntu.org website was mentioned but spreadfedora.org was
not mentioned.

While the spreadfedora.org site seems to be on message, the content
looks stale. A 'whois' reveals that domain name is not registered to
Red Hat Inc. Nonetheless, the site appears to be owned by a fan of
Fedora. Is this a good opportunity for cooperation with the marketing
team so that spreadfedora.org can spread?

Does anybody know what happened to spreadfedora.org ?

Thanks,

Beth Lynn Eicher

In this context we should also talk about
spreadfedora.com. It's held by
RedHat but not connected/serving no website.

I think it's a good idea to use such domains for campaigns, maybe
together with an upcoming release. It should not be too much work to
brainstorm some ideas like revenues for getting non-ambassadoral Fedora
fans to spread the word about Fedora (or something similar).
I remember slightly a the campaign Mozilla had some years ago with
spreadfirefox.com. There you could collect points or so (please correct
me if I'm wrong).

On the other hand I hesitate on doing such a big thing right now. The
marketing schedule for F15 seems to be full enough:
