A Project of the MarketingTeam : Project Lead: DaejuanJacobs
Objectives
- To Represent Ubuntu in the (internal) media
- Includes press releases, aimed at tech-savvy users
- Remain vigilant as to positive / negative press
- Exposure of new releases in online tech magazines etc.
Intended Releases
Breezy Badger Released
BreezyPressRelease <-- Someone take a look at this and add to it!
Here are some branstorming notes.
We need press releases relatively quickly (to take advantage of Breezy's release) to raise our awareness factor in the mainstream press. Something audacious may get headlines, such as "Not your Father's Linux", or a hint at our challenge to Microsoft. At the moment the content is not vital, just to get our name out there. People later will hear more about Ubuntu and the name will be familiar.
"Next Step in the Evolution of Humanity" I'll create a Wiki something like BreezyPressRelease and we can have people start working on one....
If we are not writing a release very soon I fear we may have missed a Golden Opportunity, and might have to regroup for Dapper. People also respond to something New, even if it's a release....
Recent Highlights
If it was anyone here, come forth and take credit, but the Breezy Badger release is getting some press coverage.

Should we add a Liaison to The Fridge, to keep them posted of our gains/successes? If we had a link on the page under "In the Press", 'Help put Ubuntu in the spotloght' or something, pointing back here, it would be a great way of attracting members and contribs.
Good idea - Could this be done by the PR dept? Where's DaejuanJacobs? lol
