Good day all,

One suggestion is to engage various journalists, tech bloggers, or other
online personalities who either write about GNOME (good or bad feedback) or
use/have used it.

For example, Bruce Byfield just wrote a fairly positive article on how we
need to engage with the community, get our message out more clearly - hey,
good idea ;-)

Others have not been so kind, but I'd say if we reach out to them with
positive news before they pick up rumours from the grapevine, we can sort
of use them as positive messengers.

Another idea for instance - some tech blogs that have been writing about
GNOME welcome guest articles (Muktware is one) - if we can start getting
articles out there, again food for us. I could take Muktware as I know the
owner of the site.
