Hey everyone, our meeting just finished up a few minutes ago! Thanks all
who participated in today's meeting.
We only had time to really cover one ticket, but it was a quality
discussion. We focused on #245 with regards to using the press kit as a
primary way to refocus our release activities, how we might do that, and
what it would look like. There will be a follow-up email a little later
today about a finer detail of this that will let us move forward on
building an example to demo and consider as a final choice for where our
deliverables go.
More to come soon, but the minutes should be easy to follow and read!
Thanks all.

status, we'll try to get a quick update and move forward. (jwf,
14:07:26)

* Tickets (jwf, 14:10:44)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-marketing/issues?tags=meeting (jwf,
14:10:48)
* === Ticket #242: "Update release activity steps / process on the
wiki" === (jwf, 14:10:56)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-marketing/issue/242 (jwf, 14:11:00)
* IDEA: One-page release notes: We are creating release notes, but a
one-page deliverable (adapted from FPL's release announcement?
something more unique / targeted?) to share with Ambassadors could
improve communication of info to Ambassadors and better equip them
for events to talk about a new release (jwf, 14:24:12)
* IDEA: Background modules: Pulling info about Fedora itself, similar
to FPL's "State of Fedora" talk data about project metrics for
approximate growth, both technical and community? (jwf, 14:25:07)
* IDEA: Creating the press kit in a git forge to encourage community
participation and engagement to help expose the content (jwf,
14:33:10)
* IDEA: Feature modules: Individually crafted PDFs based off of
release notes / meta points / other things we want to highlight to
wider press audience (jwf, 14:35:52)
* IDEA: Past press coverage: Currently happening in meeting
announcements as "In the news", but could be extracted to the press
kit in a file that is maintained during the release and kept current
(jwf, 14:39:52)
* LINK: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Python_brochure
(jwf, 14:40:53)
* LINK: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Design/SXSW_Materials#Brochures
(bkp, 14:41:24)
* IDEA: Integrating targeted brochures / flyers into the press kit
especially as a deliverable for Ambassadors to use at events (jwf,
14:43:12)
* ACTION: jwf Start mailing list thread about using a git forge for
maintaining and creating a press kit for our release cycle
activities (jwf, 14:49:31)
* AGREED: Stopping point: Creating a mock press kit repository to demo
the idea of where we create our release activities, with the
long-term intent to possibly adopt this as a permanent part of the
Marketing release cycle activities and updating our documentation to
reflect that (jwf, 14:50:50)
* === Ticket #245: "Create Fedora 26 talking points" === (jwf,
14:51:30)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-marketing/issue/245 (jwf, 14:51:34)
* Eduard put a full list of our Labs, Spins, and DNF repository
groups. He also proposed a small list of target audiences we could
start with, and try to filter down for how we want to approach this
release's talking points. (jwf, 14:51:39)
* AGREED: Will move the discussion about trimming the list to our
channel to free up the meeting channel (jwf, 14:58:16)
* === Ticket #248: " Create an education-focused marketing campaign"
=== (jwf, 14:58:27)
* LINK: https://pagure.io/fedora-marketing/issue/248 (jwf, 14:58:32)
