Marketing meetings

Meeting details

Regular meetings for Fedora Marketing take place on irc.freenode.net in #fedora-meeting, every Tuesday

• At 21.00 UTC in the Daylight Saving Time winter period
• At 20.00 UTC in the Daylight Saving Time summer period

Agenda

Every meeting consists of 3 parts:

1. Task update status (a sentence or two from the meeting chair on where things stand; no more than 5min)
2. Discussion topics
3. Open floor

Discussion topics for this week (some based on tickets in the queue):

• Marketing research - plans for FUDCon?
• Feature profiles - we need one more taker!
• Fedora Insight
  • We are SO close to the finish line - one week and one day more of hard running, and we'll be DONE. (For this round, anyway!)
    • all modules except for WYSIWYG are more or less through review at this point; legal, etc. blockers clearing
    • need WYSIWYG module packaged, tested, deployed
    • need FWN workflow figured out - Pascal is on top of that
    • need CSS tweaks by someone with an aesthetic eye
    • target date for handoff to mmcgrath for staging is tomorrow evening
  • plans for FUDCon (hackfest)
• priming the PR pumps
• what's happening between Beta and General Availability?
• If you have a question you'd like to bring up, a topic you'd like to discuss, or something you'd like to do, please add it to this list.

The motivation is to have as many simultaneous actively participating people in the meeting as possible - ideally, at all times in the meeting, everyone in the meeting should be doing something really cool (and hopefully Marketing-related) - not just waiting for their turn to speak. Think of it as a virtual version of the law of two feet.

Teleconference number

Fedora Marketing has a teleconference number available for when voice meetings are desired.

1. Visit the Fedora talk server for details on accessing the conference via VoIP or direct dial-in

Procedure for Minutes and Logging

• At the start of the meeting, the meeting chair (usually the Marketing chair or his/her delegate) starts zodbot (a variant of meetbot (see documentation)) by saying #startmeeting in the #fedora-meetings channel.
• At the end of the meeting, the meeting chair stops zodbot by saying #endmeeting. zodbot will automatically generate a log and post its URL to the #fedora-meetings channel. The meeting chair or his/her delegate then edits this page to add the link to the log below.
