Re: Marketing Brief



Hi Paul!
I would cut out the blurb about the KDE market share, as it seems like the only source is a online poll who's result I suspect vary a lot depending on what internet forums it's been advertised on the most that particular year.

I'd like to preface this email with a couple thoughts.  I'd like to apologize for not continuing the brainstorming discussion in recent weeks, but something John said made me take a different approach.  John's right - a lot of this has been discussed before.  With that thought, I decided to write a Marketing Brief.  I used content that was in the wiki, on the web, and my own thoughts and opinions.

I'm currently at a docs conference, and one of our keynote speakers said something, that basically sums me up.  Doc writers are perfectionists, and don't like to send stuff out until it's "complete".

Well, as you'll see, the Brief is only 75% complete.  You will see comments and questions I have in parantheses and brackets, and whole paragraphs are missing, and a few more citations are needed.  I should know better about harnessing the power of community!

You can review it here:  http://live.gnome.org/MarketingBrief2009 - It's on the wiki - so edit, review, and give feedback.  If you disagree with any points I have, let's talk about it here on the list.

Additionally, on Tuesday when I return home from this conference, I will send out to the list 2 marketing campaign ideas for GNOME 3.0.  In addition to Claus' campaign idea he posted on the list last month, I think we can have some good discussion about that.

Thanks.

Paul
