Re: [marketing] Proposed change of Marketing Project Lead
Hello John, Florian, all, A happy new year and I'm happy to hear your great news to step up the Marketing Strategy! John and Florian, We met and talk each other in Orvieto, so I believe our new Marketing project will make a grate new Marketing step. This is Katsuya Kobayashi, make a short introduction. I mainly contribute in JA Marketing project with the marketing tool for promotion of ODF and Community Governance. Then I hope to join here with you as this Marketing project member at the good reformation time. John, Thanks for your long and important tasks to make a growth of our OpenOffice.org Marketing. I am glad to support us as co-Lead in this important year. Florian, At the start time, It's a good way to discuss each other our marketing members at some kind of the conference. I feel we need a simple and strong message with our all community members like as "Community Marketing", I had talk at Orvieto. And I hope to make a next Strategic Marketing Plan with our Marketing project members, OASIS TC members, and also Oracle, Sun, and Major Vendors in this year earlier to kick-off the next stage, it may at the OOoCon2010 or the year of 2011. I always stay with you.

I think it's indicative of Johns tenure that the stature of the marketing project has risen to the point it is today. I look back on the SMP, the "Why" initiative, the test drive, the PRWeb award and a myriad of other moments over the last 5 years and have to say "Bloody well done!" > > We have now reached the magic year 2010, and I feel it is time for the MP > to benefit from fresh leadership.

Re: [marketing] Proposed change of Marketing Project Lead
Florian is definitely the best choice if John wants to step aside from his role, but we still need his enthusiasm and experience as co-lead. The next decade is going to be key for OOo and the open source movement at large, if we want to increase and strengthen our market presence. We are in a very good position, especially in Europe, but Microsoft will be more aggressive with the decrease of their market share (now officially under 80%). Thanks to John, best wishes to Florian. I'm here to help, if and where I can. Looking forward to 2010 as the year of OOo. Buon anno a tutti.

I have offered to stay on as co-Lead until Florian finds co-Lead(s) to help him. ... So, I would ask you all to confirm whether you are happy to endorse this change of Lead, and if so, please welcome Florian and give him your support as he takes up this challenging position. To know well both of you, I'd like to say you thank you for your great, work, and add I'm really glad that you propose Florian.

[marketing] Proposed change of Marketing Project Lead
Those of you with long memories may remember that Jacqueline asked me to become co-lead of the Marketing Project in April 2004. One of my first tasks was to compile a strategy for the MP, which was published at OOoCon 2004 as "The OpenOffice.org Strategic Marketing Plan 2005-2010". I then became Lead in May 2006, with the SMP as my bible. We have now reached the magic year 2010, and I feel it is time for the MP to benefit from fresh leadership. Since June 2007 I have had tremendous support from Florian as my co-Lead, and I would like to recommend him to you as the right person to lead the MP from 2010 onwards. As we're entering a busy period (3.2 to launch, OOoCon 2011 to award, MS-Office 2010 to compete with..) I have offered to stay on as co-Lead until Florian finds co-Lead(s) to help him. OOo's procedures state: "Transitioning from one Project Lead to another is almost always a graceful and smooth affair. The Project Lead or leads are encouraged to nominate their successors, who must be members of the project, and hold a plebiscite on the primary public mail list." So, I would ask you all to confirm whether you are happy to endorse this change of Lead, and if so, please welcome Florian and give him your support as he takes up this challenging position.
