| |
| | In-depth feature profiles to 100% completion || Owner || 2009-10-06 || start 9/22 (2 weeks ahead); this completion date means we can tie this in with additional marketing materials which Red Hat can help us with.

| |
| | Final release slogan is ready for websites/design || Owner || 2009-09-17 || Marketing creates this, influenced by the Design themes/wallpaper/etc. for the release. The slogan then (circularly?) affects the Design team's release button/banner for the website. Need to make sure this lines up with Design and Website's dates. This date is a start date; the end date needs to be set in conjunction with Design.

This means that two weeks prior, Marketing should know exactly what changes we'd like to see on the websites, that all those changes should be tickets filed in the Website team's Trac, and that each change should have a Marketing delegate working on it from within the Websites team.

| | Brief FAMSCo on talking points and propagate link to Ambassadors || Owner || YYYY-MM-DD || Needs to be scheduled with Ambassadors. Ambassadors and Marketing should have a bidirectional communication channel - how do we make sure we're really being responsive to their needs, especially their need to listen to our users' needs?

| | Update the press kits on the [[Fedora press material]] page || [[User:moixs|moixs]] and someone else || 2009-10-07 || moixs is updating the French kits. Ideally, we want this done 6 weeks before general availability. We also want the kits to be printable by anyone (no need to get it specially printed by Red Hat due to strange paper, color, etc. choices). This should be sent to journalists with USB sticks when the time comes. This milestone needs a date, and may need to be split into multiple milestones.
