[Marketing] Linuxtag Berlin 2010

[Sean DALY]

Sebastian, I'm sorry, you know very well I object since we discussed
it at length in yesterday's marketing meeting.

There is a real risk of damage if tech journalists start asking
questions about why Sugar on a Stick's orientation was changed so
radically. The journalists you named all know what Sugar on a Stick is
already.

You, Peter, Mel and the others have done fantastic engineering work,
let's build on that. We need to make recruitment a top priority - the
more said about the team instead of SoaS the better.

If anyone from Fedora marketing wants to help as I've read yesterday
and today, I'm open to ideas. However, it really doesn't serve us to
be presented as a variant of a Fedora release. A media launch at
LinuxTag, with a focus on the SoaS team, your talk, and newsworthy
content, will serve us far better.

Sean
