Hi Stephen, So - excellent timing, and we definitely appreciate the heads-up on this, btw - we're in the middle of working on Feature Profiles for the F13 release. It's basically an interview - we do them on irc, via email, or in podcast form - where we talk to the developer(s) about a specific feature, how it's used, how it was developed in the community, etc. To see some examples from F12, you can check them out here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F12_feature_profiles Is this something you'd be interested in doing? Someone from the marketing team can write up some interview questions and work with you and/or Simo on getting out some good content, and we can definitely highlight how it is first and foremost, as you said, a Fedora project. -Robyn > > - -- > Stephen Gallagher > RHCE 804006346421761 > > Delivering value year after year. > Red Hat ranks #1 in value among software vendors. > http://www.redhat.com/promo/vendor/ > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ > > iEYEARECAAYFAkvDVM8ACgkQeiVVYja6o6N56ACggKLStjWji8G9yIwvnU5TMDho > p/4An3qrlfcReObwZpa/5jtxPA9NDcpz > =c4MW > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > -- > marketing mailing list > marketing@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing > -- marketing mailing list marketing@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/marketing
