Throwing some ideas for measurable-ish goals out there:
- Convert 100 users of non-Fedora distros to Fedora as their primary
desktop OS.
- Have 1 Fedora-specific article a month until F13's release dugg up to
the front page of digg.com.
- Get 20,000 views of Fedora video content in a month. (I've gotten over
1,000 on my Fedora 5 fun things videos alone in two days)
- Encourage 100 college students to sign up as Fedora contributors and
each contribute at least one thing.
- Talk up Fedora at at least 20 different LUG meetings worldwide.
('Fedora worldwide tour' hehe). Give away at least 200 copies of Fedora
across these meetings.
