I think the fedora-marketing-list should become a 'development' list of 
sorts--a hard core place for *actually* doing and creating "marketing" 
for upcoming Fedora events and releases while also focusing on 
increasing the power and awareness of the Fedora brand.

I think this list should be more about marketing activities and less 
about news stories about Fedora.  If we want a place to collect news 
stories about Fedora I think those should go to a separate list... 
something like fedora-news-monitor.
