The existing marketing team is not UK specific. The UK media, temperament, retail environment etc are all specific to uk. A recent discussion (for me) on the (global) marketing list included an off list discussion with an apparently USA guy. From his response to me it seemed he had misinterpreted one of my points about a shipit leaflet. It was not really important except I concluded that the environment and culture he was apparently working in was very different to mine in berkshire uk. I would still very much want to remain on the global marketing list, but see an advantage in having more local movement and focus. -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
