Joshua, welcome.<br>
<br>
I guess I could say that I'm probably also an evil marketeer,
although I pretend I'm not.<br>
A while back I had a crack at defining our marketing pipeline:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Pipeline">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Pipeline</a><br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://cameronshorter.blogspot.com/2008/10/creating-geofoss-distribution-pipeline.html">http://cameronshorter.blogspot.com/2008/10/creating-geofoss-distribution-pipeline.html</a><br>
<br>
Then marketing artefacts:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Artefacts">http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Artefacts</a><br>
<br>
This then led to the development of these artefacts, which has
largely focused around the development of OSGeo-Live:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://live.osgeo.org">http://live.osgeo.org</a><br>
<br>
I'd be very interested to hear your take on these, and in
particular, what should we be focusing on next?<br>

while without being active (well, active in different directions
with a little conference we just had!), but keen to get some more
activities going now that FOSS4G is out of the way and now that
I'm on the board. There's a lot of great material from FOSS4G that
we can organize into some good marketing materials I think.

<p class="MsoNormal">Tyler Mitchell asked me to
say hello since I had expressed an interest in
helping to market FOSS/OSGeo wares. At FOSS4G
last week, much discussion was made on how to
fold new types of people into the OSGeo camp
and how to "package" the communtiy's offerings
to the outside world -- without trouncing on
its history and ethic. Not an easy task. </p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I'm one of those *evil*
marketers who at times can get verbose and
ridiculous trying to inform people of
service/products. But I also have seen the
great value and opportunities in FOSS and have
a genuine interest in what is possible because
of it. My employer is Aerial Services, Inc.
(ASI), a mid-sized aerial orthoimagery
acquirer and mapping firm based in Iowa. We
are a prime contractor on many Federal, State,
and Local projects and there is a good chance
you have unknowing used our data sometime down
the line. Anyway, we use FOSS in our internal
and external client project management
workflow and know it is powerful. My goal
here is to checkout the OSGeo "marketing"
landscape and see if I can assist the
community with my skill set (see LinkedIn for
more details).</p>
