Sure. We have a lot of content Red Hat Marketing can use to promote
the work being done here. The Fedora 8 series of interviews are a
good start.
I suspect that simply pointing Red Hat's marketing people at
a mountain of content and going "here, you write something
cool" is going to work.
If we want to improve Fedora's outreach, we first need to
figure out what we want and how to do it.
We should have started earlier on this but better late than never.
One thing to note is that none of us here are experts in marketing.
What I would really want is folks from Red Hat Marketing to guide us
and participate in our efforts so that we have more professional eyes
looking into this.
That I suspect could be a good use of time by people in
Red Hat's marketing department: teach the fedora-marketing
crowd "how to fish", so future collaboration goes smoother.
