We currently have no one who'd be systematically working on Fedora marketing in EMEA. I'm doing my best, but I'm more focused on Fedora ambassadors program. Quite a few new people joined the marketing team recently, but have stayed inactive because there is no leader and coordinator. Creating a marketing strategy, coordinating the efforts, and creating tasks for others is something we lack the most now. I'm also glad that you're interested in social media marketing. I'm currently the only one who actively maintains official Facebook and G+ pages of Fedora. Although I think it's frequently updated, I sometimes don't have time and I don't know about all news, so some active co-maintainer would be appreciated.
