---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Danny Piccirillo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wed, Mar 5, 2008 at 12:12 AM Subject: Hardy Release Campaign To: "Ubuntu local community team (LoCo) contacts" < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hello Everyone! My name is Danny Piccirillo reporting from the Marketing Team<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam>and we're hoping to have a super-successful Hardy Release Campaign with your help. Please pass this information on to your teams. This campaign will entail creating flyers for the release to submit to us to host on our Materials <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Materials> page for everyone to take advantage of. Along with doing what LoCo's do, we want lots of fliers to get out to raise awareness about Ubuntu and free software right after the release. If possible, teams should take the press release that will be issued by Canonical for the release and adapt it to make their own local press releases. We also would like to see all LoCo's engaging in organized activism and for this i have created the LoCo Activism Guide<https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LoCoActivism>(Please Digg it <http://digg.com/linux_unix/Complete_Guide_to_Digital_Freedom_Activism>). It includes tips, how to convert friends, flyering and postering, lobbying government, educational institutions, organizations & clubs, gaining industry support, press & media (which can be used to write that local press release), and fundraising. Please contribute to this guide especially if you have experience with any of the mentioned topics. Our next meeting will be Wednesday, March 12th @ 00:00 UTC<http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=03&day=12&year=2008&hour=00&min=00&sec=00&p1=0>so if you have any ideas please add it to the agenda <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Meetings/Minutes/2008-03-12>and show up for the meeting. Spread the word far and wide, Thanks! .Danny
