13:19:02 <x3mboy> #topic Roll call
13:19:21 <jwf> x3mboy: Also, as a quick note, #meetingname is what sets the URL for the Marketing team in Meetbot, so we want to make sure it's consistent across meetings. For the past year or two, it's been just 'marketing', so using `#meetingname marketing` will sort it properly with all of the others in Meetbot. :)

13:44:38 * jwf nods
13:44:53 <x3mboy> Atomic team is still discussing their focus on the TPs, but hopefully they will be ready today or tomorrow
13:45:48 * jwf adds one more quick #info
13:45:55 <x3mboy> They have problems because is hard to set a point were new features are added because the release new versions weekly or bi-weekly
13:46:16 <jwf> #info Spins, Server, and Design Team have all been contacted today about talking points (2017-05-02)
13:46:24 <x3mboy> Cool!
13:46:38 <jwf> x3mboy: Ah, okay, so I see how that is tricky. So long as they're on track for the beta, we should be in good shape.
13:46:39 <x3mboy> That's why my phone is jumping
13:46:48 <jwf> lolol :P
13:47:09 <x3mboy> Ok, next ticket
13:47:36 <x3mboy> #info === Ticket #246: "Prepare report for Council sub-project report" ===
13:48:14 <x3mboy> Well, I was waiting for bproffit to put the outline. Now that's ready, so I will start editing that
13:48:25 <x3mboy> #link https://docs.google.com/document/d/1B3bxBxFx2qtpNyVPQGJJs2Fla4kRlFlVVh8vS9LjM3E/edit
13:48:43 <jwf> We can take a quick look together now.
13:48:52 <x3mboy> Yes
13:49:03 <x3mboy> First point here is 2017 Goals
13:49:30 <x3mboy> Increase awareness of Fedora releases
13:49:53 <jwf> I feel like the goals are mostly along the right lines, although…
13:50:02 <jwf> I want to cross-reference the new mission statement for a moment
13:50:12 <linuxmodder> x3mboy,  I can help more with spins T?P tahn server if needed
13:50:13 <x3mboy> I have a question here
13:50:17 <linuxmodder> sorry got sidelined
13:50:27 <jwf> x3mboy: Sure!
13:50:48 <x3mboy> linuxmodder, np. Yes if you can, please goes on. We want to have the final version before beta release
13:51:11 <linuxmodder> I am part of both but regrettably  recently absent form server stuff
13:51:22 <x3mboy> We, as Marketing team, works with internal customers and external customers???
13:51:23 <linuxmodder> x3mboy,  your ? was?
13:51:48 <x3mboy> Or for Internal Customer we have commops???
13:51:53 <linuxmodder> technically yes even if using the internal ones to promote to externals ( or gain more externals)
13:52:12 <jwf> x3mboy: Internal customers and external customers… how do you mean? Is this mentioned somewhere on the doc?
13:52:17 <linuxmodder> internal customers as I am referring are users
13:53:02 <jwf> I think "customers" isn't the best word for the kind of work we'
13:53:07 <jwf> * we're doing.
13:53:29 <jwf> We aren't selling software as much as trying to market ideas. :)
13:53:43 <x3mboy> jwf, it's not mentioned. Internal customers = users and project. External Customers = Non-users and people outside the project
13:54:20 <x3mboy> Customer is a wide word, normally in my industry we use to define the target of our work
13:54:30 <x3mboy> use it*
13:54:44 <jwf> Ah, okay, I understand a little better now.
13:55:05 <x3mboy> So external = put of the projcet, internal = inside the project
13:55:12 <x3mboy> That's a better approach
13:55:12 <linuxmodder> using customers to mean target audience then yes x3mboy
13:55:29 <x3mboy> linuxmodder, exactly
13:55:31 * linuxmodder has a hard stop in 30 mins
13:55:48 <jwf> x3mboy: For "internal customer", I would consider that more of a CommOps area. :)
13:56:07 <x3mboy> jwf, that was what I was thinking
13:56:14 * jwf also has a hard stop in about 5-10 minutes today for class too, today ended up being a faster schedule than expected
13:56:36 <x3mboy> Ok, so we can discuss this in the ticket
13:56:41 <x3mboy> Agreed???
13:57:07 <jwf> x3mboy: +1 from me. :)
13:57:15 * jwf is going to switch to phone in a bit
13:57:33 <x3mboy> A quick note, I think we can focus our goals to help teams that need us. For example Diversity and there project Fedora Women
13:58:16 <Amita> collaboration should be every sub projects goal
13:58:20 <Rhea> Just my understandingto the above terminology, as i would understand it: internal customer == contributor; external customer == user
13:59:22 <x3mboy> Amita, of course, but I mean to define a clear line on "How to help". We should be willing to help every sub-project/contributor that ask for the help
14:00:04 <linuxmodder> +1 from me too
14:00:05 <x3mboy> And a good example is the Fedora User Handbook. In first instance was commented in the Ambassadors List, and now a lots of team are helping
14:00:18 <Amita> sounds good
14:00:21 <Amita> +1
14:00:36 <linuxmodder> Rhea,  yup
14:00:40 <x3mboy> Rhea, kind of. We can extend external customer to "anything else"
14:01:06 <linuxmodder> user/prospective user
14:01:09 <x3mboy> Becase we should market to people that don't use Fedora or even linux
14:01:21 <x3mboy> Ok
14:01:31 <x3mboy> Any other comments?
14:01:42 <linuxmodder> user to me always includes those we may run into at a con / hackathon but that is just me maybe
14:02:05 <x3mboy> Remember, we are working on the Council sub-project Report
14:02:34 <x3mboy> Any help, comment or hint is welcome
14:02:58 <x3mboy> We have the ticket: https://pagure.io/fedora-marketing/issue/246 and the document with the outline: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1B3bxBxFx2qtpNyVPQGJJs2Fla4kRlFlVVh8vS9LjM3E/edit#
14:04:05 <x3mboy> The date is May 24
14:04:17 <x3mboy> So, we have still a little time to shape the report
