<p>Jody, I'm too committed with UN (mainly) and the Board (less but still some time) and I have no time for breathing. Let us see if Peter can do that. If not, we will search somebody else. I suppose that there can be people interested ;-)</p>

Hi Folks,<br>
<br>
After completing the EOI/RFP process last month, the marketing<br>
committee has finally kicked off our project [1] with the selected<br>
vendor Get Interactive [2].<br>
<br>
The minutes from our kickoff meeting yesterday can be found here [3],<br>
and more background information, including the documents that describe<br>
the scope of the project can be found here [1]<br>
<br>
In summary, this project will produce 3 sets of output; 1) An updated<br>
set of branding for our organization and its sub-brands which will be<br>
delivered as a standard online organizational brand style guide. 2) A<br>
new website theme and foundational content which will be heavily<br>
oriented toward on-boarding new users and guiding them toward an<br>
appropriate set of software for their needs. The new website will<br>
provide a home for sub-brands (OSGeo-live, GeoForAll, Local Chapters<br>
etc) that wish to use the overall theme and structure 3) A set of<br>
digital templates and collateral for print marketing materials that<br>
will be able to be customized and used by local chapters and GeoForAll<br>
labs or for general outreach. The gory details for each of these<br>
components can be found in the EOI document [4].<br>
<br>
We will be working with SAC on standing up the new site and<br>
distributing these materials and our goal is to have the new site live<br>
before FOSS4G in Boston and to be ready to onboard content<br>
contributors (YOU!!).<br>
<br>
We have a representative from SAC (Harrison Grundy) who has joined our<br>
project team and are specifically looking for someone to join from the<br>
GeoForAll initiative as well as someone to represent the interests of<br>
the local chapters projects. We really invite *anyone* from the<br>
community to help us manage this project, so if you are available to<br>
fill these roles, please join the marketing list and speak up!<br>
<br>
Our committee will be providing regular updates to this list<br>
approximately once a month and there will be ample opportunity for you<br>
to provide feedback as we move through the process. Please speak up!,<br>
but lets all work very hard to be constructive and look toward the<br>
larger goal of presenting OSGeo, our projects and initiatives<br>
professionally, clearly and most of all in a way that is easily<br>
accessible to the large number of GIS users out there who may not yet<br>
be familiar with open source and are looking to us as their Open<br>
Source Compass.<br>
<br>
Happy to answer any questions about the process or deliverables here<br>
or on the marketing list. We are extremely excited to finally be able<br>
to update our brand and external facing presence. We look forward to<br>
your input and participation!<br>
<br>
Jeffrey Johnson (on behalf of the Marketing Committee)<br>
