And specifically, around the platform, there aren't many of the GTK+/platform developers who are active bloggers. Those that come to mind, who might be interested in writing about how easy bindings are with GNOME 3's platform, for example are: Johan Dahlin, Danni Madeley and Tomeu Vizoso (who have written about it before), and attendees at the GObject introspection hackfest: https://live.gnome.org/Hackfests/Introspection2011 By the way, to figure out who's blogged about a subject in the past, site:blogs.gnome.org topic works pretty well. Not ideal, since not all GNOME hackers are on blogs.gnome.org. Google Blogs Search returns more hits, but also many more irrelevant links too.

I think the brochures are good, but we benefit more by harmonizing them.

They have told us they do not like being approached separately for each event, as we have tended to do in the past. So do two brochures make sense?

Re: Annual Report Status?
Ok, so maybe what we should do is focus on getting one consistant design/theme for GNOME documents/brochures/etc for 2012, so that the Annual Report *looks* the same as the brochures for GUADEC GNOME.Asia, then when anyone looks through them they know instantly that they are all from the same organization... in which case I think we need someone with design skills to help :) (Which, I'll be the first to admit, I seriously lack!) Any volunteers? As for the Annual Report, what I'm hearing is a conflict somewhat in what the vision for the annual report is/should be. Do we want it to be an overview of what has gone on in GNOME over the last year (or in this case, two years) - ie the quarterly reports condensed into one report? Or do we want to focus on one or two 'important' areas of each teams work for the last year?

How about I combine the 'overviews' from 2010/2011 for each team (which are really just each years quarterly reports combined together themselves), and send them off to each group asking for updates/fixes/additions/etc, and then publish each of them. That way we ensure we have at least short status reports from each main group in GNOME. (This is basically what I did with the accessibility/a11y report.) As for the combination, that absolutely makes sense, should I/we contact GNOME.Asia GUADEC now re: how we're going to publish this or wait a while longer?
