Hello Susan,
Thanks very much for your email this morning. I appreciate your comments
about the Public Relations Committee and our apologies about not
reaching out to you earlier about this community building event. I had
sent an email to the PRC prior to our similar event held at JavaOne, but
should have done so with this event as well.
As with JavaOne, this is a community based event with a number of
different sponsors intended to generate awareness and increase adoption
of Apache Geronimo. We are thrilled to work with the Public Relations
Committee on this event ans all future events.
If you have any time available either today or perhaps Monday, It would
be great we schedule a quick call with myself and our VP of Alliances,
Phil Robinson, to discuss this event and the best way for us to
communicate with you and help promote the Geronimo community moving forward.
Best,
Kristin Lukos

Hi Kristin:
I was recently forwarded your announcement about the Apache Geronimo
event you're hosting at OSCON. The Public Relations Committee at the
ASF is excited that there are vendors showing a strong interest in
working with and promoting Geronimo. We strongly encourage you to
work with the ASF in your promotional activities where it relates to
Apache projects. There is a dedicated committee (the Public Relations
Committee, or PRC) here that is exclusively focused on Apache
branding, marketing, and partnership activities.
We, the ASF, and Geronimo in particular, will also have a booth at
OSCON. It seems like we should be coordinating efforts! From what I
understand, Geronimo will have a couple of people present who will be
staffing the booth. Perhaps there are resources you can allocate as
well.
I'd be very interested in speaking with you about this.
Best,
Susan
Apache Public Relations Committee
