I don't think pushing out an email on announce, once a month, would be spamming. Then again might be a way to start talking about a monthly newsletter - marketing sounds like a section name, to me anyhow.
good idea, indeed! I've added this to the agenda at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/ConfCalls#Agenda
I recall we talked about this before, and I really would love to have some monthly newsletter, podcast, whatever.
Also a suggestion to do the same for all four marketing mailing lists, Int., PY, ES and US, as a standard matter of practice. Even if only in English, I don't believe folks on the Spanish speaking lists will mind. (?) Speaking English on the call, IMO, is likely more of a hurdle for some, I know speaking Spanish would be for me. That's a different issue I suppose, but still, it does IMO help when the invitation is direct.
What I can offer, and would greatly appreciate, is local marketing conference calls. We can use the existing confcall infrastructure if some group wants to have a talk in their language. I think besides working on a "global" marketing, the "local" marketing is equally important. Countries and habits differ, so exchanging on a local level in the native language is a real good idea.
