[Marketing] Fwd: Fedora Affiliates

Hi all, Over in Fedora Marketing for the past few weeks, we've been working on putting together a proposal for a new program, "Fedora Affiliates". This is a way for organizations like schools, non-profits, or companies that are actively using Fedora to get a little recognition and exposure as users of Fedora. Not only does this help them, but it also provides a record of people that are using Fedora already in all kinds of different places. So, for example, if a school is unsure about whether a Linux / Fedora computer lab is possible, you could visit the Affiliates page, see examples of schools that are using Fedora, and reach out to them with questions if needed. Anyways, our team member who took this on, James, was hoping to get some more feedback on his proposed drafts for how we explain and recruit affiliates. The links for all of these things are in the forwarded message below. I am sending this to the Ambassadors and council-discuss list. If you have feedback or comments, the preferred way to leave them is on the Trac ticket (also linked below). However, if you want to reply back to this thread, please do so on the Marketing mailing list. Thanks for your time! -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [Marketing] Fedora Affiliates Date: Tue, 17 May 2016 20:03:55 -0300 From: James Bishop <james(a)jamesbishop.ca&gt; Reply-To: Fedora Marketing team <marketing(a)lists.fedoraproject.org&gt; To: Fedora Marketing team <marketing(a)lists.fedoraproject.org&gt; Hello Everyone, Over the past several weeks, the marketing team has been working on a way to publicize "Fedora Affiliates", or projects that are using Fedora as part of their work. The ticket for this can be found here: https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/ticket/222 At this time, several wiki pages have been created, and you can find them here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Scratch/Affiliates https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/Scratch/CurrentAffiliates Any thoughts or suggestions you might have would be appreciated. Thanks! Best, James P.S.
