=== Fedora Print Magazine ===
Discussed briefly was an idea for a print magazine per [[Fedora_print_magazine]].
 
=== User Stories ===
[[User_stories]]
 
=== Fedora-tour ===
[[Fedora-tour]] is a project from [[User:Rrix|Ryan Rix]] and [[User:ankursinha]] to create an application which, optionally, will be launched after firstboot and present a user with a comprehensive guide to their newly installed system, and the community as a whole.
 
=== Non-tech press coverage ===
Corey Mulls<reference>http://fpaste.org/Z813/</reference>, looking at the project from a new user perspective, sees that we are doing a good job marketing to users who are already Fedora users, or generally more technical people, but users who may be new to GNU/Linux or not even know about it aren't getting the necessary press coverage.
*One key thing we should be promoting is the kind of things the Windows or MacOS X have been touting as new features, and how many of them have been around for a long long time in many Fedora releases. <coreymull> But the whole idea of piggybacking on a competitor's announcement is part of that
** To expand on this idea, it was presented in IRC that we have no page like [http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/910features] in our arsenal. Such a page is a really helpful thing for all teams involved in recruiting new users, and we should have more pages like these.
* We should be spending more efforts, even as unofficial marketing, to make it easy to contribute, to break the stigma that you have to be a 133t h4x0r to contribute.

=== Fedora Insight ===
With any luck, [[Fedora_Insight]] will be released soon after/at FUDcon.
 
=== Red Hat Summit ===
There will be a Red Hat summit this July that we want to get some coverage at.
 
=== Marketing Kits ===
20:27:48 <mchua> So going along with the idea of "Marketing can make materials for Ambassadors to deploy at events," maybe some kits and HOWTOs for people who want to run those sorts of things?
 
=== Marketing FAD ===
Mel wants to have a Marketing FAD sometime around march.
 
=== Stuff we need ===
* talking points
* release slogan
* feature profiles
* one page release notes / tour
* Screenshot library
* Slides/presentation library
 
=== Podcast ===
[[User:spevack|Max Spevack]], MooDoo ([[User:paulmellors|Paul Mellors]]) and PhrkOnLsh [[User:rrix|Ryan Rix]] are (seperately at first, hopefully they will unite) interested in creating a podcast that is designed to give The Fedora Project as a whole more of a community face, with contributor interviews and other such items.
 
=== Other Ideas ===
* trying to work with a class of Marketing students (to see how we can on-board a large group of contributors with that domain knowledge, all at once)
* translations and i18n workflow for Marketing stuff
* HOWTOs on how to make all Marketing deliverables
