On Sun,
This conference might be a good place to find like minded people and get
good suggestions on how to capture, collect and host open video. Or to find
the right people to get a good project started ...

I agree with Andreas. It's true that we should want many people to put a
badge on their side, since it's a prerequisite to find more donors.
But to fix this, a prominent place for the link to the badges page will
not be sufficient. Just a small fraction of GNOME users will visit the

I like Stormy's idea below, though will people have enough data to give an

I have no idea if it's possible, but if you go back to the Miro Adoption
idea, each user gets their own webpage and widget. I thought I had seen
another OSS project do something similar, but what I'm thinking
That'd be very cool if we could track how many people/money you've
referred! I'd be a big fan of that.
We could also consider giving compensation for referrals. At the very
least, we'd give recognition but we could also consider money (like
Amazon does) or things like GNOME merchandise.

It was an assumption on my part - I was personally focusing on building a
plan around GNOME 3.0 launch - rather than an overall GNOME marketing

Nice to meet you! I'm cc'ing the GNOME marketing list as that's where
