Hi Barry,
I'm happy to sign up for review if it would help. In terms of
content, there are the release notes that are coming out with
the
milestone announcements that probably have useful fodder to be
culled
for this sort of thing. And we do have 2 major development
releases a
year as well as 2 LTS point releases ;) The Release Overview
section
and some of the highlevel overview information, in particular.
See:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NattyNarwhal/ReleaseNotes
Also, we're in process of putting together A3 release, but the
A1 and
A2 milestone release notes from Oneiric, can be reviewed.

We try to highlight whats making a first appearance for
developers, but
it might be interesting to the wider audience as well?
On a related topic, if there is a contact or two interested in
participating in proofreading the announces before they go
out, I'd
very much appreciate a set of editorial eyes on them a day
before each
milestone release. Please let me know if there are volunteers?
Thanks, Kate
(Ubuntu Release Manager)

Hi there .... A few days ago, Laura Czajkowski made the
suggestion that
Ubuntu Advertising and/or Ubuntu Marketing might look at
preparing and
sending press releases to appropriate media. Since then, I've
been
looking at what happens at present. All I can find are
spasmodic
releases from Canonical which sometimes reflect the state of
play with
the latest Ubuntu release.
Do any of you know of anything more than this?
If not, could I suggest a sub group committed to circulating a
regular
media news letter (two or three times a year). I'll be happy
to receive
contributions, collate them and write it up, then circulate
it. It
would need to target computer magazines, press generally,
radio and TV.
Are there any opinions? And any volunteers to feed news items
into
this?
Kind regards, Barry.
