I think I'm going to take Jeff's messages to heart (from his reply down the thread): we need to get this done. We can do multiple editions, so I'm not sure if we need to worry too much about "getting" everybody in the book. We'll also need to determine the format of the book -- first, what "trinket" or whatnot we'll use to represent Fedora (something where we can, by holding it, proclaim "I am Fedora", whether obvious or not) -- and second, if we want to do a small interview with them and grab a quote out of it that speaks well of them and Fedora. I'd like to come up with a draft design for the book cover and the individual pages sometime this week. Also, Lisa -- you've taken this idea and already done beautiful ideas with it. I welcome you happily to the marketing list and I'd love to see what this turns out to be! -- Ian Weller <ianweller@xxxxxxxxx> http://ianweller.org GnuPG fingerprint: E51E 0517 7A92 70A2 4226 B050 87ED 7C97 EFA8 4A36 "Technology is a word that describes something that doesn't work yet." ~ Douglas Adams
