Hey folks, I have received this inquiry and tried to respond to it as good as I could--mind helping me out a bit? Thanks, a ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Patrick Windt <paddy.windt@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mar 20, 2006 2:21 AM Subject: Re: Inquiry - General marketing questions from a student of international business To: Alex Maier <lxmaier@xxxxxxxxx> Dear mrs. Maier, So if I get this right, seeing that you are indeed head of marketing, the fedora marketing team focusses their attention on promotion. Is Fedora Core not adapted to fit the needs of it's members, by lets say a broad survey, or is it estimated what the target audience wants? Does the fedora marketing team have any firm strategic or operational targets to obtain? I'm mostly interested in fedora's marketing strategy since it is very much different from a regular company. It is indeed non profitable and you do not have a tangible item.
