Hello Michael,
I'm not sure how this relates to what the Xubuntu team is planning to do.
This is mostly for the reason that Xubuntu is a completely
community-driven project and no money is put into the marketing. For
this reason, the marketing tends to be more on the passive than active
, flyers, marketing, etc, etc.
Summer of 5 years work: we converted no one!!! Let that sink in!!
Near no one! Only ppl who where already convinced we have helped with

For open source development, there is nothing better then a Nix distro

I have given marketing a lot of thought. I am by no means an expert in
marketing, and may need someone to set me straight. However, I am

How do you market Xubuntu? It is free, it generates no revenue, and it
must be given away. This seems to present
