Yes, as you say, the press people are helpful and a good resource to foster. Er. To put it differently, when dealing with reporters/journalists, ask to get a chance to review any quotes or interviews or any articles about your project, promise them same-day turnaround, faster when you can, and then your goal becomes to get them to be enthusiastic about what's happening and to share the Dream. So yes, a Press badge can be useful, but pretty much anything can be misquoted with very little effort, so it's better to focus on making the reporters be well treated and feel comfortable, so they're not out to misrepresent people :) Liam -- Liam Quin - XML Activity Lead, W3C, http://www.w3.org/People/Quin/ Pictures from old books: http://fromoldbooks.org/ Ankh: irc.sorcery.net irc.gnome.org www.advogato.org _______________________________________________ guadec-list mailing list guadec-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/guadec-list
