How you can contribute
Here are some examples of what constitutes a contribution to the Fedora Marketing Team:
-
Managing talking points for one or more editions, or parts of Fedora (a Fedora Edition, a major feature, etc.).
-
Writing a release announcement or contributing a large section to a release announcement.
-
Fixing a comma splice is not really a significant contribution. Managing a section on the Workstation Edition is.
-
-
Working to create one or more flyers or information sheets for an edition, Fedora overall, etc.
-
Substantial work helping clean up the Marketing docs.
-
Creating materials for Fedora Ambassadors for an event, or talking points for an event or events.
-
Any observable significant and useful contribution that moves Fedora Marketing forward during a release cycle.
-
Mentor and bring in new contributors to marketing.
We grant membership to anyone who invests in teaching other people the ropes, even if that means their impact is not as visible on the finished product as if they did the work themselves.
A good recommendation for beginners is to familiarize yourself with the the tools we use in order to help with a particular kind of work.
