This is by way of an introduction and putting my hand up
I've been the MarCon (Marketing Contact) for New Zealand for OOo since about
2005 and been around the OOo project since the early days.
My original introduction to Linux was Mandrake 8.0 but became a little
disenchanted with it around the 10.1 period and I moved to SuSE, however I've
always been a fan of many of the features that made it unique.
I have long wished for a true community driven, Desktop RPM distribution that
is Simple End-User friendly. MCC set Mandrake/Mandriva apart for
unsophisticated users and I think that forking at this point is great.
Obviously my strength is in marketing and training and I'd like to get a
Mageia marketing project of the ground right now, gather together some like
minded marketing enthusiasts and take Mageia to a world of new users.
A marketing project would be useful to the project at this juncture to create
branding, formulate a strategic market plan, source graphic art and build
community.
If there is general agreement with this proposal, I would then like to request
a marketing ML so we can keep the prattling about strategies and branding and
logos and all that stuff off the devs list. I have server space available to
set up a marketing Wiki and Art repository and for Docs as well if required.
Cheers

Here is a quote from Romain d'Alverny who left this message on that list
re: when will job assignations be set.
-----------------
We're setting up a temp wiki to start listing people roles, a blog, a
basic website and discussing for basic hosting services. We expect to
post an update by this evening about all this + the org. statutes and
registration and the following steps. Stay tuned.
Cheers,
Romain

People should take direction from this.
