I would like to add "communication" to the pool :-) . Usually Marketing
is mainly an one way direction communication channel, just providing
information of what GNOME is doing.

I think we need to improve the communication channels in the opposite
directions, mainly for encouraging participation in the community of
average users. We lack of community management, I think we should try
some baby steps in this area.
