Would it be possible to begin re-using the trac for the action items from meetings? I see a few benefits: 1. Folks that miss IRC meetings can see what tasks are being done and where they can help out, and who to get in touch with 2. Since you're looking to improve recruitment, it'll be nice to have a single list of tasks that folks can get started with, as opposed to them mailing the list and trying to find out what they can do. The tickets can also be marked as "easyFix" so they show up in the fedora easyfix task list[1]. (We just need to ask infra to begin scraping from the marketing trac. I could do that.) 3. Milestones can be added on the trac: we missed out on marketing collateral last release because I woke up too late to realize no one was working on them. Using milestones, each task can be tracked. For instance, we could sync the marketing collateral task with desing and doc teams and work accordingly. 4. It might be possible to give folks badges for submitting articles if these submissions are done via the trac. I don't think this can be done if we have a mailing list for submissions. The badges seem like a great idea to encourage folks to contribute. One issue that I see is extra work: - Someone has to create the tickets I think the extra work will be worth it in the long run though. --- The documentation project already does quite a few beats[2] for the release notes. In the past, these beats were used to make marketing collateral[3] for each release: pamphlets, flyers etc. May be it'll be a good idea to keep up with the docs team since they spend quite a lot of time tracking features for each release and could be a good source of quite a few articles (maybe a "this release in Fedora series" kind of a thing)? FAmSCo approved the addition of "add your event to fedocal!" to the "how to organize a fedora event" wiki page[4]. I already did send a mail out the the ambassadors list regarding this. I'll keep an eye on events in APAC and ensure that it's done here. I'll request ambassadors from other regions to do the same.
