We need more detail in talking points
by Matthew Miller 02 Apr '18

02 Apr '18

Hey marketing team members. Thanks for your work on the talking points. I know it is sometimes kind of painful to get talking points out of the various groups, and I defintely appreciate what's there. In the future, though, I think we need a format that explicitly includes more information. The talking points should be things that: 1. Users will get excited about. 2. Press will want to write about. 3. Ambassadors should definitely know and know how to "sell". I think each talking point should include: 1. A headline (what the change is) 2. A hook (why users should care) 3. One or more interesting details 4. Link for more information. For example: VirtualBox integration ---------------------- What: VirtualBox guest drivers and tools are now included. Why you care: VirtualBox is a popular cross-platform virtualization system. The guest drivers improve performance and provide integration with the host system. Now, will work better as a guest under VirtualBox, including when VirtualBox is used with the popular developer tool Vagrant. Fun fact: Fedora Developer Hans de Goede was instrumental in getting these drivers into the upstream Linux kernel. Fedora prefers to work with upstreams in this way, so that the work we do benefits everyone. For more information: * VirtualBox manual: https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html * Linux kernel docs: [wherever those are] ------------------- If we have something in the talking points which can't be interestingly expanded in this way, it probably isn't really a talking point. :) Does this format make sense to everyone? Is there anything missing? Also, how can we get the teams to do this better? Clearly asking nicely isn't working completely. :) -- Matthew Miller <mattdm(a)fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader

Modularity video for Fedora YT channel
by Adam Samalik 28 Mar '18

28 Mar '18

Hey Eduard and Justin, I have recorded a video about the Fedora Modularity [1] project, explaining why are we doing it, what it is, and how it works. And I'd like to get it published on the Fedora Project YT channel [2]. You can preview it on an unlisted link here: https://youtu.be/EMF3viVMeQI (I'll delete it when we get it published) Do you think it would be a good fit for the channel? I could also publish it on the Fedora Modularity YT channel [3], but I'd rather get it to the main Fedora one. Also, I'd like to give it some social media love as well. If you think it's a good fit, could we get it published today? I'd like to get it out before Easter, as people might have time to watch it over the holidays. Cheers!

I would like to ask representatives of Fedora Working Groups and Spins and Labs SIGs to work with the Fedora Marketing team and solicit bullet points for the F28 Beta release announcement. As an inspiration you can use the old F27 Beta Release Announcement [1] and the new F28 Talking points [2].
