Re: [marketing] Strategic Marketing Plan Call

[Rosana Ardila]

Khirano, all, This is actually a great starting point! I also agree with you on the idea of invition other community members to help us create the SMP. What I think we should do first, is to create a framework to make participation easier with the marcons and the marketing list. For example, we could have internal polls asking other what they think we should go, etc. So that we pre-structure the discussion around the SMP. I think that would help us to move forward faster. What do you think about that? Btw, Louis and Rafaella would like to set up a call or an IRC meeting next week, so we can discuss this also there.

OK, I think OpenOffice.org Japanese Language Project can contribute to a new SMP since we have got support organizations like ODPG [1], and we have got many enterprise users and several local government users like an recent example, Yamagata prefectural government, who is planning to adopt OpenOffice.org as next PC office software for fiscal 2011 [2]. We have made a wiki page listing major deployments since 2003 in Japan [3]. We have learned a lot from them and organized a strong marketing project [4] Our marketing project members are from various fields, such as opensource software solution companies, solution providers, independent designers, translators, consultants, local government workers etc. So we can share ideas on SMP and contibute to a new SMP. Why don't we the Marketing Project announce "call for participation in creating a new SMP" on annou...@openoffice.org? Then marcons can translate the announcement into their language and organize contributors.
