-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi John,
* John Baer: > The following is my response to Chris requesting more information and a > chance to participate. I have to say that I found your long email rather hard to follow. This mailing list is rather full of long, unfocused and rambling emails at the moment. There was really no need for you to embark on a long analysis of what you see as the fundamental aspects of the marketing project in order to ask what essentially were two simple clarificatory questions about the t-shirt initiative. Your mail could have been condensed in two and a bit lines: > What I am asking is the intent of this idea and the message to be > deliver? The scope of the posting is only a few days, is there some > urgency? I don't want to pick on John, because many others are also guilty of sending long rambling emails to the mailing list on the subject of "what is marketing". Don't get me wrong, defining a purpose is vital, but the time has arrived to try and get some focus on this team mailing list and stop the current flow of individual ramblings. What this requires is a few people to demonstrate some leadership and push the team in the right direction, focus on a small number of well-thought out projects, and enabling the enthusiasm which many people on this list demonstrate to be channelled into a productive direction. A few members have discussed this on the irc channel this morning, and Matthew Revell is going to produce a focused post which allows the team to discuss the direction of the team, and finally get some purpose. Let's all contribute by helping get this team on track and avoiding unfocused ramblings about the definition of marketing. Thanks for reading!
