Please Note The Board typically approves the minutes of the previous meeting at the beginning of every Board meeting; therefore, the list below does not normally contain details from the minutes of the most recent Board meeting.

WARNING: these pages may omit some original contents of the minutes.
This is due to changes in the layout of the source minutes over the years. Fixes are being worked on.

Meeting times vary, the exact schedule is available to ASF Members and Officers, search for "calendar" in the Foundation's private index page (svn:foundation/private-index.html).

Discussion: PR/Marketing

21 Apr 2004

 The draft Marketing/PR plan (CVS board module
 'apache-marketing.txt') was discussed.  Note that file is ASF
 Confidential since it discusses a private arrangement with
 Schwartz.

 Greg talked about Susan and how it would be nice to make our
 relationship with her official so she is able to take necessary
 actions for PR and marketing purposes.  It was generally agreed
 to be a good idea to promote the purpose and direction of the
 ASF to give foundation credibility and visibility.  It was also
 thought that this will help with fundraising efforts.  While it
 would be good to have a VP level marketing position at some
 point it was proposed to make Susan a marketing director (no
 signatory, but a point person) possibly as soon as next month.
