Hi, discussions for USB sticks, Live USB Creator that was the thing once called, https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/LiveUsbCreator or Wifi-Special-Mirror are very far from the problem
But now back to ideas for the visibility. How would it be not to "brand" it as desktop from the outside. What I mean is normally we do this cheap envelopes. How would be we do this time so called Digisleeve or DigiFile (I mean here the format, we should not choose the brand). Problem with the other one is, if you take a look: https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/d/d5/Fedora-20-livemedia-mate_compiz-64.pdf on the backside is no space left at all through the necessary legal text. On front the edge with architecture as the text what media it is not necessary from a legal point, we do it more of historical reasons. With an Digisleeve or Digifile we had one page more in the inside, where we can place server and cloud text for marketing reason. It will be little bit more expensive but think lesser as producing server media another option would be to paper wrap them, like https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/7/70/Fedora-20-foldinginstructions.pdf that can be done from vendors also, we could keep, it except legal text also very neutral and would have the whole inside for information about fedora.next and the other products. There would be several such solutions. So there would be other options as producing server media for getting attention that there is a change and we have now server, cloud and workstation Note that will not touch the other sleeves and media artwork Design Team does: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/MediaArt/F20 the opposite, there will be sleeves for server and maybe also cloud. But hopefully somebody tells us how all the media will be called in the future br gnokii 2014-09-04 23:51 GMT+02:00 Mike Ruckman <[email protected]>: > On Thu, Sep 04, 2014 at 02:47:30PM -0400, Jaroslav Reznik wrote: > > ----- Original Message ----- > > > On Thu, Sep 04, 2014 at 11:20:21AM -0600, Stephen John Smoogen wrote: > > > > How many USB 8 gb sticks could we order with that money (the 1750?)? > And > > > > how instead of giving it away we went to a 'earn the fob by sharing > or > > > > helping someone else' system? > > > > > > At some non-Fedora-focussed conferences I've been at, people we > clearly very > > > excited about the USB stick because OOOH FREE USB STICK.
