Engagement Team Meeting 3 March 2017

Attendees

Social media calendar has some info. Could do with some more info and content for the facebook part. Help welcome for more tweets.
Ask desktop devel?
Go through release notes, ask maintainers to do a nice blog post, and then we can publicise that - Neil/Rosanna/Nuritzi
Stickers
Allan saw a picture of the booth @ SCALE, it has some stickers
Waiting on Nuritzi to check

Allan - notes are going reasonably well, big chunk of text is in the initial draft
Next stage is to nag devs for text - to be done next week
Wants them done early this year
Help needed with screenshots
Sri to help out with screenshots and getting details from devs re: GTK4 porting/prep work that's been done.
The video doesn't focus as much on developer experience, see builder.
Need to start the cycle earlier, as release notes and video cross-feed from each other

https://wiki.gnome.org/ThreePointTwentythree/ReleaseVideo
Music to be looked at next week
Animations in progress, should have some samples of the style with the new branding
Screencasting is coming in from community which means less work \o/
Todo: nightshift light in control panel and recipies features
All: Anyone who has pictures from events to send to Bastian

Copenhagen - 18th of March Open source days - will have a booth (gnome flyers, merchendise, Bastian needs help coordinating for merch.; would love stickers for this and for release party)
FOSS North - Bastian will speak about new release and representing GNOME - Bastian sent email with call for papers for both conferences
Linux Fest North West May 6th - call for presentations going on (about 3,000 people, would be great to have a presence; Sri is willing to travel there)
Linux Fest in Ohio (one of the biggest)
Linux Fest South West
Conference in India (International conference) - gives government exposure - already have people going; should give them talking points if possible
Sri will send out to mailing list to come up with talking points for Indian conference (need to look up requirements; make sure attendees gather information as well)

Adelia is at SCALE, but may be willing to help organize the annual report. Rosanna to reach out and ask when she returns from SCALE
Need to work out the lead time. Allan put together a fairly aggressive schedule on the wiki. 5 Weeks + 1 week printing. 6 weeks minimum.
Hard deadline is the day before GUADEC (28th July)
Thus starting ASAP would be good
Reminder that this was actually for last year, so getting stuff sooner rather than later is good
Avoid a lengthy schedule, as it may be a bit of a drag...
Balance between length and PANIC.
If people go to a conference, ask them to possibly write what went on in a wiki? Would make it easier to track where we've been.
