Larry Cafiero<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-May/012941.html</ref> has forwarded a message from one computer store offering Fedora pre-installed, and this seller wanted to be listed on wiki as there are list for other people selling Fedora disks. This has started a thread  that probably will lead to distribution pages<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution</ref> to be updated.


Paul Frields shared and idea for feature story<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-May/012944.html</ref>. This was later picked up by Robyn Bergeron<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-May/012968.html</ref> who suggested more ideas, so we can keep a continuous flow of contend. This also is an opportunity for newcomers to participate in marketing team. You can see the list of suggested interviews<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing_interviews</ref> and start creating a wonderful story.


Lars Delhage brought back the Fedora Marketing Book Club<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-May/012959.html</ref>. The book club  wants to share one recommendation for reading and then have an IRC discussion. Book List include those that may be helpful for Marketing Open Source projects. The will be one book for every month and June will be “The Starfish  And The Spider”. Everybody is welcomed to the book club<ref>https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Book_Club</ref>, not just marketing members as was pointed also in another mail by Robyn Bergeron<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-May/012960.html</ref>.
Last week a thread was started by Nelson Marques<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-June/013024.html</ref> about SWOT - comparative analysis. This threat aim to establish ground for comparison among distros. This is a promising topic.
 
 
 
Robin Bergeron<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-June/013029.html</ref> is looking for a more representative name for Fedora Summer of Code. Apparently this name is creating confusion due similarity with others summer sessions. Having Northern and Southern summers included is wonderful. Brainstorming has produced many names.
 
 
 
Paul Frields<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-June/013033.html</ref>has working hard for Microblog content. Now that we have control over fedora account on twitter and now also on identi.ca too<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-June/013082.html</ref>, marketing team is discussing on how to make the most of those resources. A related thread was started by Luke Slater<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-June/013048.html</ref> about Microblogging research.

Last week a thread was started by Nelson Marques[1] about SWOT - comparative analysis. This threat aim to establish ground for comparison among distros. This is a promising topic.


Robin Bergeron[2] is looking for a more representative name for Fedora Summer of Code. Apparently this name is creating confusion due similarity with others summer sessions. Having Northern and Southern summers included is wonderful. Brainstorming has produced many names.


Paul Frields[3]has working hard for Microblog content. Now that we have control over fedora account on twitter and now also on identi.ca too[4], marketing team is discussing on how to make the most of those resources. A related thread was started by Luke Slater[5] about Microblogging research. This is leading into new grounds, and the considerations regarding translation of the content[6].


Rahul Sundaram[7] announced a new blog named "Fedora Next: Tracking the bleeding edge of Fedora development" which tries to show the community side of developing Fedora.


Finally we have MMM – Marketing Meeting Minutes[8].
