This is a work in progress!! Feel free to add your ideas

Welcome! You have arrived to the wiki of the SpreadUbuntu team.

What is SpreadUbuntu?

The Idea we are trying to make a reality has been taken up many times. Always in a slightly different way, with different goals, under different names. So what is this project exactly? I will now explain what SU will eventually be, and what it will eventually consist of, this is the long-term, global conception.

First: it is called SpreadUbuntu (SU for short). Don't mix it up with the former project, we just love the name, changing the concept a bit. It is a site aiming two audiences: the excited new user and anyone willing to solve Bug #1. Although the visitor will see it as a whole, we actually have two sub-projects, that we will call site and diy, SU being it all. (Again: forget about what used to be DIYWebsite, etc...) So that's for the naming. The site part will be accessed via [http://www.spreadubuntu.com www.spreadubuntu.com] (currently still pointing to ubuntu.com) and the diy part will be transparently integrated in the site part. However, for the experienced marketeer, not interested in the site part, a subdomain, [http://diy.spreadubuntu.com diy.spreadubuntu.com], will directly point to the diy part. All clear? Let's see what these parts consist of then...

(in progress...)

Our aim is

Not to be a general website, but a marketing website for Ubuntu marketeers to use
To serve the Ubuntu community with a centralized marketing material repository
To be a meeting point for Ubuntu related marketing activities
To drive the marketing effort within the Ubuntu community as a central part of the Marketing Team

We plan to materialize this in the form of a website: spreadubuntu.com

Want to help?

If you want to help us with this, see the Table of Contents and get down working! There is a lot to be done! Most of the ideas for this team and project are based in:

[https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/DIYWebsite this previous idea] and, of course,
the [https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Projects/SpreadUbuntu original conception of what the Spread Ubuntu project should be].

While we will take a lot of concepts and ideas from them, our SpreadUbuntu website will be based on our own implementation and conceptions. Feel free to [https://launchpad.net/~spreadubuntu/+join join our team], participate and work with each other to find our direction.

Projects

We have many ideas and we would like them to be narrowed to projects. See our [:MarketingTeam/SpreadUbuntu/Projects: project page] for more information
