Fwiw, I agree w this point too and hope we can have some more strategy around events? I think this was part of the thinking Spot had around our presence at SXSW - reaching out to an audience we don't normally hit at the lug/linux cons. (Does that sound right?) First hand impression of being at the Fedora booth at SXSW is that the vast majority of people we spoke with had little knowledge of Fedora and were genuinely being introduced to both Fedora and floss tools for the first time (we focused on designer-centric tools like Inkscape, given the audience makeup.) ~m On October 13, 2015 5:12:47 PM EDT, Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: >Not mentioned at the meeting, but a thing I'm concerned with and have >mentioned before: having a Fedora presence at conferences is good, but >is it the best use of Fedora money?
