This provided > you want to keep doing marketing related things for GNOME Allan gave me an account but I can't find the link to actually log in anymore, which was annoying a while ago as I indeed did want to publish something... But in any case, this is something which should go out to journalists but not be posted on our general communication channels. I know GNOME has announcement channel(s) where press is subscribed - but that's not documented clearly so I can't send it somewhere & ping some moderator to approve it. speaking of that, dave started a "can we document how we do gnome announcements please" but that info should imho end up here: https://live.gnome.org/GnomeMarketing/Channels We didn't finish the discussion on GNOME news, at least, as far as I can tell no action was taken. How about we have a meeting about these things at the DS? I can shoot in a GNOME marketing BoF if you like. Oh, and I would really like to have a cross-desktop marketing session. There's been a bit of bad blood concerning a few communication thingies regarding the DS (and other/older communication) and I think we should have a heart-to-heart between KDE and GNOME ppl on how we frame certain things. To give some idea what it's about: do we claim both to be "the linux desktop project"? Or "the largest"? Do we mention each other? Where? How? Those things can be rather unaligned and lead to frustration here and there. Kind'of like the naming discussion about system settings but different ;-) meanwhile, this mail should go out to journalists - any ideas what ML that would be?
