The bbc click episode is a good one. It introduces Open Source in a convincing way, and also Ubuntu, followed by the interview with Mark S and I think it all comes across very well. The same morning this was broadcast, I was displaying on my Infopoint table at the local Computer Fair, and several people came to talk and ask about stuff, specifically mentioning the program. To these people, I had been invisible in previous months! If I give a talk to local computer clubs about open source I may often include some of it to illustrate a point. Worth noting what might be obvious that: - News items or journalists items etc are free (to us) - Learning how to manage 'News', publicity, and how to initiate it, is a most valuable art, and is something which is worth taking on board. - However brilliant something is and well proven and reliable and ongoing - this is not 'News', and since the media is hooked on 'News' something controversial has to happen to make 'News' -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
