I would have asked you to send it to the Fridge but we have done a story on ULive in the past. However if you submit a differently worded story with more emphasis on the Marketing aspect we might just throw the spotlight on it again :) > > There is a draft of the wording which I have put on the wiki here: > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MarketingUbuntuLive2007Invite?highlight=%28marketing%29 Could you jazz up the wiki page a wee bit more. - The sessions /speakers and topics part is one paragraph and is difficult to read. - Probably use bullets and keep it crisp, easy to read and find info. - Provide posters to the US loco teams to publicise it at their colleges/community LUG's. > a) what is the best channel to approach the community There are many, so I guess it depends on your target audience.
