Project Fedora Out-Reach: Kickoff. (Proposed)

[Cesar Pinto]

Hi Mike,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

2 points from your note :

- agenda for kickoff : what have we have planned for session? Here is my
suggested agenda.

* what is outreach? Define higher level goals for program.
* brainstorming : what are the top 10 prios we should focus on achieving?
* action + timeline : what 3 things we will focus on and by when.

I could prepare some slides to help set the stage.

- google hangouts,  why?

I like hangouts because we can save sessions in youtube and easy for people
to follow monthly discussions.

Are you affected by issue of flash? Maybe you can join in an android mobile
device?

Alternatively I could always setup my red hat bluejeans bridge? We can also
record there and that sure works on RHEL CSB.

Do we count you in as a founding member of outreach 2.0? :)

Cheers
