[19:50] Is there a place to get materials for flyers and CD's and the like in order to get Ubuntu out to the public? [19:51] like maybe stuff I can print out and leave around campus maybe? [19:57] acrousey: for markteting? [19:57] marketing? [19:57] cd dvd cover and flyers? [19:57] yeah [19:58] can you hold a bit? [19:59] acrousey: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DIYMarketing [19:59] did you try ubuntu marketing team wiki? [19:59] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Materials [19:59] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Resources [19:59] has a lot of stuff. We're working on a site to collect all this soon [19:59] check Flannel's link too [19:59] Please post anything you create :) [19:59] are there any materials out for 8.10 [20:00] not yet available sorry acrousey. [20:00] not I official one [20:00] oh [20:00] no promos yet then? [20:00] there have been talking but I am not sure. [20:00] Flannel: any idea? [20:01] acrousey: You should probably ask in #ubuntu-artwork, they'll know more about the state of intrepid stuff [20:01] alright [20:04] how much freedom do i have in making my own "marketing" things (flyers and the like)? [20:05] acrousey: yes. [20:05] you can do anything [20:05] except terms should be same [20:06] could i make my own T-shirt? [20:06] ( I mean the sharing, copying, contributing etc,) [20:06] yes acrousey [20:06] and be a walking billboard? [20:06] yes [20:07] if you design anything dont forget to share it with us on the marketing wiki [20:07] ok, that was one of the things i didn't know i would be able to do. Selling the T-shirt however at a higher price than the shirt cost would violate the terms of usage though, right? [20:07] ok [20:07] i'll try to share it [20:07] thanks! [20:07] not really acrousey [20:07] if its for your funding of open source projec [20:08] *project [20:08] like funding loco team [20:08] i'm not part of a loco team (i'm from the rural part of the midwest in the USA) [20:08] you can sell t-shirt and materials for the purpose of survival and growth (not profit) [20:09] even then you can sell if your true intention is to spread the news [20:09] sweet, that's pretty cool [20:09] but you really cant charge extream high price, for business gain [20:10] that's what i was thinking [20:10] ok, that's pretty awesome [20:10] acrousey: You really ought to get in tch with your LoCo for material stuffs like that. Since buying in bulk is generally a lot easier [20:10] cannonical or any other organization, team does not restrict any fair use [20:11] And I'm sure they'd appreciate it too. [20:11] i think the only LoCo for my area services several states [20:11] Where are you? [20:11] acrousey: then I think there are few sponsors who distributes in USA [20:11] Iowa [20:11] not sure about there location and market then [20:11] yeah [20:12] I can print flyers though and leave around CD's, right? [20:12] yes acrousey [20:12] acrousey: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IowaTeam #ubuntu-us-ia [20:12] there you go :) [20:13] thanks! [20:13] sorry I cant really dig things to help you out acrousey,, my line is giving me trouble, I cant browse any website :( [20:14] hope you found what you were looking for?] [20:14] I found what i was looking for [20:14] thanks! [20:15] pleasure is ours, [20:15] since you are trying to contribute as much as you can :) [20:16] now on my part [20:17] can anyone tell me what short term objective we are trying to achive? [20:17] like coming months ? (ofcource there is the marketing campaign for intrepid) [20:18] what next? and how we are planning to approach? [20:18] shahriar86: A group of us are working on the Spread Ubuntu website (primarily the DIY part of it): a repository for marketing materials and a place for people to find/share/etc them easier [20:18] yes I have heard about it Flannel [20:18] Flannel: how far is that project? I was looking around about it this morning [20:18] just looking around if I get any preview of the site [20:19] Except for that, I think all the other people lost interest. They made a big splash with overarching organization changes, and never really followed through. [20:19] well to be honest? there seems lack of goal and guidelines to achieve [20:19] Its... sort of happening. I'm working on the backend for it, and recently got caught up in some LoCo stuff, GBJ and a few presentations, but I should be getting back into it again shortly. [20:20] shahriar86: That's true. [20:20] Well, except for specific projects [20:20] we know about bug #1 but still, there should be a guideline where we want to be and how we are going there [20:20] (and at the moment, I believe only that one project) [20:20] Flannel: could not find any updated news about the projects [20:20] it seems very quite over here [20:21] Well, like I said, its just the SU project [20:21] and, even with that, I agree with you that its quiet. [20:21] yes, hopefully we all are looking forward it :) [20:21] SU project [20:21] That doesn't mean other things can't happen, they just aren't currently. [20:22] well marketing is always about being in the viewpoint right? but ubuntu-marketing team is not even there :( [20:22] humm yes Flannel, [20:22] btw who is heading the team? [20:22] I mean any structure? [20:22] (not that it is a must ) [20:23] Not really, no. Go read the last few meeting logs :) [20:23] could not find them :( [20:23] not regular :( [20:23] Hmm, alright, I'll find them for you [20:23] ok I know the links,, [20:23] I know the last one wasn't even officially posted, as far as I know. [20:23] humm ok [20:24] And they have been regular, First Saturday of the month [20:24] I am not a regular (or old in that matter) face in this world [20:24] but... I think I was the only one at this months. Previous two (three?) happened though. [20:24] yes.. [20:25] I am learning my way around [20:25] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Meetings/Minutes/2008-06-07 https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingTeam/Meetings/Minutes/2008-07-05 [20:25] I take it back about the last one not being posted, since its right there. [20:25] ok thanks [20:25] will take a while to load then read [20:26] * Flannel notes that he's being a slacker and still hasn't done one of the items he was supposed to. [20:26] Maybe I'll knock that out today, heh. [20:26] :) it happens to most of us Flannel [20:26] shahriar86: I suggest just reading the raw logs, you'll probably get more out of it [20:26] ok Flannel I will [20:27] btw I am from Ubuntu-Bangladesh Loco team [20:28] an internee you can say :P [20:28] just enrolled [20:29] is looking for ways to make the loco team more active, [20:29] that is why hanging around on marketing team irc to learn something === meoblast001 is now known as meo|away === meo|away is now known as meoblast001
