Hi all, I think I may not have been clear - the press releases are ready and if you can help with translation please contact me directly and I will point you at them.
We have done this differently from previous releases and have created an overview release as well more detailed ones for the server and desktop. Features guide How is this progressing? I was looking at the Beta feature overview and noticed that we had moved the feature list off the wiki to the Ubuntu.comwebsite. I know we wanted to do this because the Beta was out but it feels sub-optimal - the notes are not finished and it would appear to be much easier to do this on a wiki - this should be something that everyone can contribute to. Ahead of having better visibility on the the status of the guide I took the liberty of reverting the page to its last state and then renaming it to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ubuntu704Features. Feedback, screenshots and more v. welcome. Finally as per comments on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FeistyFawn - if loco teams have journalists that would like access to the team for interviews - please let us know through [EMAIL PROTECTED] and we will get interviews organised. Many thanks, -- Christopher Kenyon | [EMAIL PROTECTED] <//[EMAIL PROTECTED]/> On 3/27/07, Corey Burger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hey all, Prompted by some concerns within the team about duplication of resources and my own thoughts about how we can better coordinate with Canonical, poor me stayed well past my bedtime (UK is +8 on me) and spoke with Chris. He reiterated that the Canonical marketing efforts are fairly narrowly focused and that duplicating the community work is crazy. Here are the salient points: = Press Releases = This will be written by Canonical's press agency and will be released to the community for translation on the 11th of April at the latest. VERY IMPORTANT - READ IF TRANSLATING THE PRESS RELEASE It is absolutely critical we respect embargo on this press release. This means that if you translate the press release, it cannot be sent to press agencies before Canonical releases the official English one. If we screw this one up, it is going to be much harder to get press releases before the actual release date. = Features Tour = This is our baby. Based on the wiki pages of the Herd and Beta, this will be a features tour of all that is great and new about Feisty. This will be delivered in the following formats: 1. A wiki page - for primary development 2. Xhtml - for the web and for translation in Rosetta 3. ODF - for general use 4. PDF - generated from the ODF, for printing I have committed that I will get this done by the 11th of April at the latest as well. = DIY website = This is Martin's baby, but Chris was very much interested in this. He said they would help with hosting if needed. = How can you help? = The Features Tour and the DIY website both need help. If you want to help with the former, please contact me. For the latter, Martin. = So where is Christina? = Sadly, Christina has left Canonical. As such, Chris is now our point person on this. = Finale = Basically, the press release and features tour will be done by the 11th, in time for translators to get their little paws on it. All in all, Chris is a great guy. Lets all rock to the Feisty release!
