Perhaps we can have a poll. =) It did make me have very rough thoughts about the possibility of doing a sort of 'rebranding exercise' (excuse me for a second while I shoot myself) around one of the newer names; change our conception of the event itself a little bit as well as the name, and maybe provide a longer time base for publicity. Ubuntu, for instance, has the old marketing trick of announcing everything at least five times down pat; we could do this with Test Sprints / Test Blitzes / Testathons / whatever. Very rough sketch - * we can do a shiny announcement when we've decided what events we'll have * we can do a shiny announcement when the test cases for a given event are done * we can declare week-long Focus Periods for each event and do shiny announcements at the start and end of each * we can do three shiny announcements of the 'Blitz Day' or whatever associated with each event; before, during, after (with the 'before' and 'after' announcements emphasizing that you can test already/still) * we can do a shiny wrap-up at the end of the cycle I dunno, it's just a thought.
