Welcome to our mailing list, Christina. I'm looking forward to work with you, and just in case you haven't seen the MarketingTeam wiki, I'll briefly outline what we are doing. We have this list, the #ubuntu-marketing IRC channel. I would also like to have a meeting some time soon, but need more to schedule for it :) Our most visible product is the UWN, though be it more of an intra-community issue, led by Corey Burger. Melissa Draper is doing the Ubuntu counter and ubuntu surveys, Eldo Varghese is working on the Media Relations project, originally started by Matt Revell. John Little has ubuntuvideo.com up and running with community participation. Dan Buch and I are working on what was originally called and planned as Spreadubuntu (MarketingTeam/SpreadUbuntu - outdated), and is currently simplified to the MarketingTeam/DIYWebsite . There, I'd like to offer DIY marketing material for download, purchase or accept new material from the community, as well as provide schemes of marketing Ubuntu locally, ready to be used as cookbook recipes by locoteams or other groups of willing users. There is also the fridge, but it lives a life of its own in #ubuntu-fridge and [EMAIL PROTECTED] That said, we have established some time ago that the team has no leader or contact, and is rather comprised of self-governing projects who's leaders/contacts are the people who thought of the project and started it single handedly, or were chosen by the project's team.
