+1 for the idea, we can reuse the format for diversity events as well.
Is there any ticket for this discussion?
Just to reiterate, my proposal is for a physical pamphlet promoting
the Magazine, which Ambassadors could hand to potential writers at
events -- people who are not Fedora contributors but might get
involved through easy writing tasks. I like Charles' idea too but
let's disconnect that from this thread.
If we want to have comm-ops track the pamphlet concept through a
ticket in their queue, I can file it. Is that the right way to go,
Amita?
