Hi Steven,

My concerns with the marketing for OOo are nor merely to the
belgian market. I think that there is a need for global marketing
support to give OOo a push to the market. As I pointed out
earlier, I can joint the Dutch project to help with translations,
eg. No probs there. But I also believe that I can use my knowledge
and experience to provide what I do to everyone in the community.
I believe that marketing, even for a OS product, should be top-
down approach, guided trough a bottom-up concensus on the plan.
I agree. As a Danish OOo MarCon, I feel there's a need for more
coordination between the local marketing efforts. If the global OOo
marketing project can not provide the coordination we need, we
might just as well communicate directly. Som please feel welcome to
email me. I'm sure the Danish OOo team will be happy to cooperate
with you!
What would either of you propose? I'm all for more coordination among
the various groups. So are the MP leads, I imagine. I tend to
travel among the various NLC groups and have noted that though
organic identity helps it also requires a lot of energy to sustain.
Having a global effort that is coordinated can help everyone. But...
what would you suggest as a concrete activity? Remember, our goal is
not just to get people to use OOo but also to contribute to it; we
market not just the product but also the project.
Best,
Louis
