Hello everybody!


Looks like I am inactive. My apologies; my family problems drives me
crazy.. but I am reading you!.

Maybe there are people which FAS account is linked to a "dead emails
addresses". For example, this is my main email so maybe I don't say
anything but I am reading. Maybe you should send an email before to
eliminate a FAS account or a emila from the group the kind of "Y*ou have X
days to answer this email If don't you will be eliminated"*.

By the way... I am trying to enter inside in markmail.org I suppose the key
is the same as FAS Fedora account or... It is not?

Regards

Davinia

> ## What Constitutes a Contribution?
>
> OK, so maybe what constitutes a contribution is unclear. Let's start
> with what *isn't* something that gets you over the requirement:
>
> * Saying something on the mailing list.
>
> Just participating in a discussion on the list is *not* a contribution.
>
> So what are some of the things that are contributions?
>
> * Managing talking points for one or more editions, or parts of Fedora
> (a spin, a major feature, etc.).
>
> * Writing / compiling a release announcement - or contributing a large
> section to a release announcement. [Fixing a comma splice is not really
> a significant contribution. Managing a section on the Workstation
> Edition is.]
>
> * Working to create one or more flyers or information sheets for an
> edition, Fedora overall, etc.
>
> * Substantial work helping clean up the Marketing wiki.
>
> * Creating materials for Fedora Ambassadors for an event, or talking
> points for an event or events.
>
> * Any observable significant and useful contribution that moves Fedora
> Marketing forward during a release cycle.
>
> * Mentor and bring in new contributors to marketing. We should be
> totally good with granting membership to anybody who spends a lot of
> time teaching other people the ropes, even if that means their
> fingerprints are not as visible on the finished product as if they
> created it solo.

> ## Also Proposed

> I hope you've read this far - because I have one more proposal:

> * We edit the wiki to remove the "add yourself to the FAS group" bit.
