I think that's an awesome exercise to engage in anyway. At the OSCON booth we had visitors across the whole spectrum - from business types that don't know what we do to engineers that used lots of our projects.
I have this vague idea of a short set of talking points that answers "Why the ASF matters to me as..." - a student - an engineer - an executive using products built on ASF projects - a company offering products built on ASF projects - a friend of OSS - a marketing person selling products based on ASF projects - a random passer-by Does that fit with what you have in mind? I'm happy to take a swag at some as a starting point we can build on in cwiki. -- Daniel Ruggeri On September 13, 2018 7:01:53 AM CDT, Rich Bowen <rbo...@rcbowen.com> wrote: > > >On 09/13/2018 03:40 AM, Bertrand Delacretaz wrote: >> Also, that Hamburg conference didn't feel very technical to me, > > >This is really important feedback to hang onto for next time, so that >we >know how to adequately set messaging. > >Yes, I know, for the most part we don't *have* messaging at events, but > >it's something that's on my list for the coming year - to provide a >one-sheet messaging guide with info about the Foundation, and some >talking points about "what's new" and "what's exciting". > >Yeah, I'm getting all corporate on people.
