To spend less time on the tchotchke and more time on the content. I'm thinking take all the money for jackets and get some alternative-build-arch machines so the people who are packaging things for extras with no access to the systems can build there. Fine, maybe they can't be at rh for security concerns, but I might be able to host them at duke. Or maybe get some more folks doing some infrastructure bits and being paid for a month or so to get it done. Or get some CD/DVD's burnt and mailing out to random people who might request them. Anyway - I think it'd be more constructive to follow out those paths and to use whatever resources fedora has available to it for that end rather than 'letterman' jackets. I hated have to put up with the useless cool kids in the letterman jackets in high school, I don't intend to start to do it now. -sv -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
