Paul, thanks for putting all this together! Additional goals I think we should add for 2009:
- Talking points for the current release for people working a GNOME booth. (This could be part of the press kit.) - Brochure on what GNOME is, how to get it and how to participate. (This could be part of the press kit.) - Sponsor recruiting kit/team. - Speaking at a couple of non techie, non open source events or at least some events out of our comfort zone. Maybe a first goal is identifying a couple. A second goal is getting a talk accepted at one of them. - Fundraising campaign for Friends on GNOME that takes into account the feedback we got from the survey. - Survey of GNOME Foundation members to see how GNOME Foundation can best meet their needs. (Not 100% sure this is a marketing effort, but usually anything with "survey" is. :) - Recruit marketing team members from adboard member companies. - Press team goals - perhaps identifying press folks and some regular times to put out a press release and contact them. - Add Friends of GNOME awareness blog posts to the calendar. How do we keep the release goals and the 2009 goals synced up? Should we go with one or the other? Personally, I'd prefer a calendar year that reflected when the releases come out.
