That's always a problem for us in the West. Most of us have day jobs where irc is blocked. ( Thank those botnet people for that) . Plus, I think the meeting should only focus on 12.2, as the orginal e-mail request by Eduardo. No new Ambassador stuff until after launch and openSUSE Summit and OSC12. There too much work we need to do. So like the project and marketing team, we need to have a list of topic to address. If not, it's not going to be a good meeting, we will be over place. Here is the list of what I was thinking that we need to cover 1) Have the ambassador done write up on they blog/social media groups about 12.2 and what coming out. I know there was a call for help a couple weeks ago. Can't stress how much this helps gets the word out, even if it a short post that 12.2 will be out on this date, currently can down load the latest RC. Get screen shoots. All this stuff needs to be done . 2)When press DVD will be our for 12.2. Until when will the Gold Master be ready for download, please torrent it. That way we can seed and getting to all the ambassadors faster. When can we make orders for parties. 3) Other items that should be address to make the launch of 12.2 and the launch party helpful, that we need people to work on, and if it helps think of it as a launch party kit. DVD/CD Label with artwork that the Ambassadors can down print. DVD/CD Cover with artwork Flyers hyping the 12.2 ( Product Spec Sheet) that the Ambassador can print out and hand out with the DVD. ( Need people to translate one the main sheet is done) A list of items that will help to make a launch party successful. 3) Wiki page where the ambassadors can post their launch party, dates, location. Also we need to have the information to the mailing list as well so that we can post it on the social media sites as well. In the past we had twitter army, it time to get that going again. So a call from the Ambassador pool to see who will help twit stuff. One thing I been think about is for the Ambassador to take video that we can share with others of their launch party. 4) The other need we need to address is getting the work out on openSUSE Summit and OSC12. Guys, I talked with Bryen at SELF, we are not doing much, time to get on it. Two months before each. The only person I have see do anything on openSUSE Summit is Bryen, guys part of job as ambassador is to get the word out on everything. Maybe Bryen can address everyone one wants needs to be done to help promote openSUSE Summit. Jos/AJ can can address The three big things we as ambassador need to focus on and work with the marketing team are the 12.2 release, openSUSE Summit and OSC12. 5) Izabel/Kos and talk about the travel fund for the ambassadors and address any questions on that. After that, if there are questions other times. Anyway, if you are really want to do the meeting that was called for 12.2, lets get a list of topic. Again, the above items are my thoughts and I know many will disagree, but we need to be focus so we don't waste time and get things done. -- Terror PUP a.k.a Chuck "PUP" Payne (678) 636-9678 ----------------------------------------- Discover it!
