I submitted the press release yesterday before the deadline! I selected the following target categories:
* Education * Children & Youth * High Tech - Software * High Tech - Public Sector/Government Concerning the category Nonprofit Industry, I agreed with Caroline's argument that journalists covering child-oriented nonprofits will also be opted-in to Children & Youth, while the latter category will have greater reach. I added one phrase in the beginning: "for loading on any 1 Gb or greater USB stick" the idea being to make it even clearer that we do not sell or distribute sticks, but the software images on-disk.com looks interesting as a no-hassle solution (particularly for a known platform such as the XO-1) but I think we would need to pay close attention to how each new SoaS image is identifiable - would be a pity if people pay money for an out-of-date version, etc. Another concern is that since we obviously cannot guarantee boot success on hardware config X, to avoid disappointment I consider it likely that we would end up recommending an on-disk order only for those who have already booted a downloaded+loaded SoaS image. We will want translations, as before I can do French but help with Spanish, German, Portugese, Dutch, Italian, other languages? will be greatly appreciated. I still haven't managed to get the pt & nl translations of the previous release up yet, will do that asap I will be on vacation this Wednesday but I will somehow manage to get connected & send the press release to our targeted mailing list thanks Sean _______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
