My comments or questions are in brackets. Once we get this part clarified, it should on the wiki page. I'll do if there is no one speifically assigned to do it. Comments? Suggestions? Marketing Team Mission Statement We are a group of Ubuntu users who have voluteered to help increase Ubuntu's share of the operating system market through various methods uncldung but not limited to the sharing of information, advocay, education, and ??? We are a resource for other Ubuntu teams, especially the LoCos, and will assist them in their efforts to recruit and inform. We respect the autonomy of the LoCos to decide their own course of action and will assis them in whatever way each LoCo feels is appropriate for them. Our target market is [this is the tricky one!] all individuals and groups who use computers, with a special emphasis on Windows users. [Since we are trying to break Microsoft's monopoly of the market, we really should target their users] We will establish a liason with Canonical's marketng department to coordinate our respective efforts and to facilitate the flow of marketing informationbetween the Ubuntu communiy and Canonical. -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
