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.
Thanks Paul for explaining :) . I like both ideas.
But, I am more interested in the "framework for creating an article" specially
for event reports and publicizing the event.
As, I can reuse that for diversity events.
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?
It will be nice to have a ticket, so that this great idea does not get lost in mails.
I also would like to know about "framework for creating an article", do we want
to track this too somewhere with different ticket?
Please advice :)
Thanks & Regards,
Amita
