Marketing Summary

[Dennis Leeuw]

To make sure all noses are pointing in the same direction, a little 
summary from the last couple of days:

Everybody that reacted agrees on the fact that GNUstep needs more 
attention from the "outside world".

Almost every body responded in a fashion that more or less indicated 
that GNUstep without a real environment (Desktop, Developer or whatever 
other name) is causing problems for marketing and positioning.
Banlu suggested an DE under the GNU umbrella.
Adam, could you respond to this?
Could you indicate what your point of view is?

Alex Perez suggested we need two Foundations (Europe/US) for collecting 
money.

Stefan created a list of newssites to post news to:
http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/Marketing
Who is going to write the articles?
Who is handling which news site to get the news posted?

And it was pointed out and agreed by a couple of people that there needs 
to be a certain domain for the marketing effort. I know that e.g. 
gnustep.net could be used for that. Since I haven't touched it in years.

Is this a complete summary?
Did I forget important issues?

With kind regards,

Dennis Leeuw
