O design team:

The Marketing team is having a FAD in mid-March 
(https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_FAD_2010) and as part of this 
FAD we are making a brand book 
(https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_FAD_2010#Day_2_.28Sunday.2C_March_14.29). 


We're trying to figure out what (software) tools (and people who know 
how to use them) we should have on hand during the FAD, and were 
wondering if the Design Team had any recommendations (or better yet, any 
people who might be interested in tag-teaming on the brand book with us. ;)

We'll be on IRC the entire time - if it helps, we could schedule an hour 
of design brainstorming at the beginning, and then later in the NA 
afternoon after we get content in, come back for another design sprint 
on how we could best lay it out and such. But we /will/ be on IRC the 
entire time, and anyone's welcome to pop in and work with us anytime 
during that day they're free.

The list we have so far is at 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_FAD_2010#Materials_.2F_Tools - 
it's basically "Inkscape and Scribus?" at the moment. What else would 
you suggest? Should we do what we did for 
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_12_one_page_release_notes and put 
the content on the wiki as we work? Is Gobby better? Should we try for 
collaborative Inkscape? (What questions should we actually be asking here?)

Many thanks,

--Mel
