One the most important things that happened on Marketing this week was the Fedora Insight Sprint that took place on February, 28th. As reported<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-February/011875.html</ref> by [[User:Pcalarco|Pascal Calarco]] there where advances in several areas and some interactive testing. This test included uploading some of beats from Fedora Weekly News to Fedora Insight. Congratulations for all those contributed in this sprint.
The beats usually report mostly from mailing list but this time it will be impossible to do so. Marketing FAD took place during this period and was so many important thing happening that mailing list did not reflect truth about the work done. The very first stop should be to look at Marketing FAD wiki <ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_FAD_2010</ref> which has been updated and ordered to be easily readable by Mel <ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Mchua</ref>


[[User:Nmarques|Nelson Marques]] started a document called Comunication Matrix<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communication_matrix</ref> which surely will help us at Marketing in many ways.
One of the big outcomes of this meeting was the Marketing Plan <ref>http://www.braincache.de/wp/2010/03/14/fedora-mktg-fad-2010-day-1/ </ref>, that will help us to prioritize activities that are related to Educate, Build Bridges, Spread the Brand and Build Ramps.


On March, 2nd, Marketing held its weekly meeting. You can see the log<ref>http://meetbot.fedoraproject.org/fedora-meeting-1/2010-03-02/fedora-meeting-1.2010-03-02-20.00.html</ref> but the highlight was the slogan for Fedora 13. Later on the slogan was released by Nelson Marques<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-March/011908.html</ref> so let's “'''Rock it!'''”
On the wiki you will find links to meeting logs, photos, videos and blogs that will allow you get an idea of those amazing four days at Raleigh. There will be more about Marketing FAD as there are ripples of task that will be seeing shortly and hopefully listed in the marketing beat.


There was brought up the issue about promoting spins, and [[User:Pfrields|Paul Frields]] made clear that errors were made<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-March/011907.html</ref>, but we are moving forward and future talking points will include spins<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-March/011901.html</ref>.
On another topic, there is a warm up for a press release about for Google Summer of Code <ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-March/011992.html </ref>. This is just a preparation as there is no answer yet to confirm that Fedora and JBoss are accepted as a umbrella organization. More information is avalible on the wiki <ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSoC_2010_plan</ref> <ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GSoC_2010</ref>


All in all a busy week.
Finally, I think we have a trend in marketing team about Metadata, like having how-to on writing how-to. This time we have a thread <ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-March/012021.html</ref> raised awareness on how important is to read Fedora Weekly News that I am reported in the Fedora weekly News.

The beats usually report mostly from mailing list but this time it will be impossible to do so. Marketing FAD took place during this period and was so many important thing happening that mailing list did not reflect truth about the work done. The very first stop should be to look at Marketing FAD wiki [1] which has been updated and ordered to be easily readable by Mel [2]

One of the big outcomes of this meeting was the Marketing Plan [3], that will help us to prioritize activities that are related to Educate, Build Bridges, Spread the Brand and Build Ramps.

On the wiki you will find links to meeting logs, photos, videos and blogs that will allow you get an idea of those amazing four days at Raleigh. There will be more about Marketing FAD as there are ripples of task that will be seeing shortly and hopefully listed in the marketing beat.

On another topic, there is a warm up for a press release about for Google Summer of Code [4]. This is just a preparation as there is no answer yet to confirm that Fedora and JBoss are accepted as a umbrella organization. More information is avalible on the wiki [5] [6]

Finally, I think we have a trend in marketing team about Metadata, like having how-to on writing how-to. This time we have a thread [7] raised awareness on how important is to read Fedora Weekly News that I am reported in the Fedora weekly News.
