Hi!
Feedback from me: Wow! that is a nice report. It might have taken time to compile but \
it's very appreciated to have this overview of what is happening.
If you could (you = someone, not just Ivana) do such an overview once or twice a \
month (once being already awesome), I think it can help redynamising the promo team \
and show that stuff happens.
Keep on rocking!
Cheers,
Olivier

activity on this mailing list has decreased<br /> recently. This is mostly because \
KDE Promo is now using Phabricator to<br /> track and manage its ongoing activities - \
as we announced a while ago:<br /> <a \
href="https://marc.info/?l=kde-promo&m=149246050109966&w=2">https://marc.info/?l=kde-promo&m=149246050109966&w=2</a><br \

about Phabricator tasks to the mailing list.<br /> <br /> Until that's set up, please \
enjoy this human-made report. :)<br /> <br /> So, what's currently going on in KDE \
Promo - and how can you contribute?<br /> <br /><hr /><br /> 1) Randa Meetings / \
Randa2017 Fundraiser<br /><hr /><br /> Phabricator task: <a \
href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T6722">https://phabricator.kde.org/T6722</a><br /> \
<br /> As you've probably heard, we're trying to promote Randa Meetings and<br /> \
successfully complete the fundraiser. As things stand now, sadly, the<br /> latter is \
probably not going to be achieved, unless a generous corporation<br /> or a rich \
YouTuber decides to support #Randa2017.<br /> <br /> But let's not give up yet! \
Here's what you can do:<br /> <br /> + post about Randa Meetings and the fundraiser \
on your social media<br /> accounts - use the #Randa2017 hashtag<br /> <br /> + post \
about the Randa fundraiser in online communities - forums,<br /> subreddits, Facebook \
groups... - that are dedicated to accessibility or<br /> improving UX in general<br \
/> <br /> + write a story for the Dot - about accessibility in general (what it<br /> \
means, why it benefits everyone and not just people with disabilities); or<br /> \
about Randa Meetings in general (history, how it began, what's been<br /> \
accomplished in previous years); or about your own personal experience with<br /> \
accessibility on computers<br /> <br /><hr /><br /> 2) KDE at Qt World Summit<br \
/><hr /><br /> Phabricator task: <a \
href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T6840">https://phabricator.kde.org/T6840</a><br /> \
<br /> This is a big upcoming event that KDE will attend. It takes place in<br /> \
Berlin, Germany from 10th to 12th of October 2017.<br /> <br /> Planning for the \
setup and decoration of KDE booth/space at the event is<br /> already in progress \
(see comments on Phabricator), but you can chime in<br /> with your ideas.<br /> <br \
/> If you'll be in Berlin on those dates, you can also sign up for booth duty,<br /> \
or offer some other ways to help with representing KDE at the venue.<br /> <br /><hr \
/><br /> 3) <a href="http://KDE.org">KDE.org</a> Website Redesign<br /><hr /><br /> \
Phabricator task: <a \
href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T6842">https://phabricator.kde.org/T6842</a><br /> \
<br /> A major overhaul of the official KDE website is in progress. The website<br /> \
will not only be visually redesigned, but will also switch to a new CMS<br /> \
(namely, Wordpress).<br /> <br /> You can leave your comments and suggestions for the \
design - but also for<br /> the content! - of the new website in the comments on the \
task linked above.<br /> <br /><hr /><br /> 4) Finding tools to collect data from \
social media<br /><hr /><br /> Phabricator task: <a \
href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T6481">https://phabricator.kde.org/T6481</a><br /> \
<br /> This is a very important long-term issue for KDE Promo, because we have to<br \
/> find a way to track data from KDE's social media profiles. It's unfeasible<br /> \
for a single person to do this manually, so we need to agree on a tool.<br /> <br /> \
You can suggest tools and methods for this in the comments on Phabricator.<br /> <br \
/> Please read through previous comments to avoid repeating the same<br /> \
suggestions.<br /> <br /><hr /><br /> 5) Purism Phone Campaign<br /><hr /><br /> \
Phabricator task: <a \
href="https://phabricator.kde.org/T6919">https://phabricator.kde.org/T6919</a><br /> \
<br /> A brand new task - so fresh you can almost still smell the paint! If you're<br \
/> interested in smartphones and want a bright future for Plasma Mobile, this<br /> \
is the task for you. It's an ambitious plan to help the Librem 5<br /> crowdfunding \
campaign AND promote Plasma Mobile.<br /> <br /> What you can do?<br /> <br /> + join \
the discussion on Phabricator - read the comments, add your own<br /> suggestions<br \
/> <br /> + get ready to write some content. This is a task that will require a \
lot<br /> of written content, so you can start collecting ideas and preparing \
drafts<br /> <br /> + if you enjoy creating graphics more than writing, take a look \
at linked<br /> visual materials in the task, and see how you can make them better, \
or make<br /> new ones<br /> <br /> + if you don't really like writing, but don't \
mind translating what others<br /> have written, that's cool, too! You can look for \
websites and communities<br /> in your language that might be a good target for this \
campaign. Then, once<br /> we have written the articles and blog posts, you can \
translate and post<br /> them there to spread the word<br /> <br /><hr /><br /> 6) \

<br /> Before closing this report, another quick piece of information. These days,<br \

channel, which is bridged to the Telegram group -<br /> <a \
