[Ambassadors] Marketing requirements - what do the ambassadors need?

[Zoltan Hoppar]

Hi,

I think we need some flyers, usually timeless generic ones IMHO - but
that is also true - that we don't really need a series of them. IMHO
we need something that actually summarizes the new stuff, and pays
attention to the changes. Thats why was useful the earlier one page
release notes that filled perfectly this gap. We can include generic
informations, and actual infos, and if we design it to be foldable
with some contact info - I think we solved it the flyer question.

Otherwise - we need something that actually can be an app on android
that provides an installer (so that way I take fedora ISO's anywhere),
and turn my phone into an install server sharing as access point. I
have also created an new mktg ticket 200 with an idea, that maybe fits
into this app maybe.
