1) What is VI-Marketing? :-) We're happy to offer asylum if it is
marketing related of course.


Designing marketing material, conference stuff, covers for
documentation, banners, logos etc.


2) I read in the link several points that must be commented or amended.
Yes there is a strongly voiced opinion by the infra team that the
RedMine wiki is not to be used at all; forums are a bit different, they
do raise some real questions in the case of an existing mailing list
(more on that below). However RedMine and its issues/tickets is not to
be closed at all.


No, of course not, only the Design part. Otherwise I wouldn't ask about
an asylum.



When you say asylum, what are you looking for? Is it to use RedMine as 
a repository for your designs?


Cheers,

Marc

Hi everyone,

2. New Wiki

I am personally not entirely sold on this one, but we are in a situation
where the marketing wiki pages are quite numerous, yet completely chaotic,
and often outdated. We can think about cleaning these wiki pages, but given
their amount we may consider to start a fresh with a new wiki. I'm not
suggesting that we open twenty new wiki pages on RedMine tomorrow, but that
we use it for a month if we need it.

One of the benefits of having a single wiki is the ability to easily
cross-link between teams, etc. Plus we do have a ton of content up
there, including event pages stretching back multiple years. If the
Marketing pages on the TDF wiki are hopelessly unusable, we can always
move them all under /Marketing-old/ and start from a blank slate,
but I'd expect that some heavy editing might be more productive?



As I am the one who created many of the wiki marketing pages, could I 
try to clean it up and make it more useful? It needs a lot of cleaning 
up and updating and I am still quite knowledgeable of the information on 
the marketing wiki pages. There is a lot of cool stuff and I personally 
think that we may fall into the trap of re-inventing many of the past 
items where we had spent a lot of energy/discussion building ideas. Many 
of them just need implementation and are still valid today.


One such good example that is quite simple but still cool is the 
LibreOffice paper airplane project that the marketing/design team 
created ... it was used at some initial conferences a couple of years 
ago, but was still fun and would still work today with updating the 
information on the plane template.


We also built up some ideas on LibreOffice use in education and, again, 
some of the projects may be valid still today ... they just need 
implementation.


I could clean up the marketing section and then we could then have a 
close look and decide whether to close and re-boot it.


I am also concerned of some of the design work that we also did that 
still has not been properly catalogued, we should avoid re-inventing 
something that has already been done and would need just a little 
tweaking to update.


Cheers,

Marc
