Re: GNOME SWOT Analysis



I'm doing something already for some time with Stephano in the Fedora
Project. Though it's still a bit stopped now (due to goddard release), I
can provide some guidance help on that. I've done already SWOT's in the
past (for the Portuguese Footwear Industry, ACAPO and am doing one for
the Aveiro City Hall - Municipal Stadium Administration).

I am not sure on how you pretend to accomplish this, basically I've made
a small document for Strength's:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Marketing/SWOT_STR which will be
complemented by the community (currently working on the communication
email). But this is probably only going to happen after F13 release.

Anything ring my bell. I'm not dead, though due to the nature of some
personal issues and some overload from Fedora release I'm a bit more
away from this list.
