Pursuant to my reminder on the 19th, Lewis had sent an email on the 20th w/a version that he created.
Nancy - The purpose of the flyer is to announce the conference locally; at universities, local pubs, wherever we could hang the flyer (or pass out) to optimize publicity. See the email below from Ross wrt the content of the flyer. Steve - I'm not sure what you mean by getting a "professional" to do this? I'm pretty confident that we can achieve this through our volunteers, but thought perhaps this is something that your team would be able to do as well? Thanks! ~M ________________________________ From: Nancy Colwell <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 8:02 PM Subject: Re: Anyone able to do an ApacheCon Europe 1 page flyer? Where will it be used? Sorry for the ignorance. If you could point me to something similar, I can assess if LucidWorks can do it. ________________________________ From: "Steve Holden" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, August 22, 2012 4:40:55 PM Subject: Re: Anyone able to do an ApacheCon Europe 1 page flyer? Maybe we need to get a professional on this? Even so we will still need to provide the copy. regards Steve On Aug 19, 2012, at 12:58 PM, Melissa Warnkin wrote: Haven't seen anything come through on this lately.....what's the status of this?
