Hello Giuseppe, I'm following this topic with interest thinking about your words.
I'm an ambassador and I completely agree with Giannis. I worked a bit with Mitzie, Chris and Joe, talkin' with them and Ruth in the meetings and I can say that they are open minded. So I mean is that the magazine is not the only working way into the team. Yes, it's important but there's a lot of other areas to work. I understand what you're referring to and if you think there's something you wanna change or make it better just work on all the marketing things; everything can be changed from the inside. Marketing people is doing a great and hard work, please respect this fact. Hope to see you soon. ___________________________ Gabriele Trombini Fedora Ambassador FedoraOnLine staff member > Il giorno 25/mar/2014, alle ore 22:33, Giuseppe Pignataro > <[email protected]> ha scritto: > > Hi Giannis and all the others, > Thanks for yours contribution. > I know that I have exaggerated on the title and on what I have writed. > I understand your position and I think the marketing team have made a good > work.
