Many thanks to everyone for all their hard work during the F12 cycle!

 From Paul:
"Thank you to *everyone* on the Marketing team for all the hard work you 
did for this release. It's one of the best we've had, IMHO, from the 
standpoint of interested, energetic people helping with marketing 
content and tasks. The one-page release notes are stunning, the 
interviews were great, the interaction with other teams was phenomenal, 
and I want to say from the bottom of my heart, again -- thank you all! 
You help make Fedora the special community it is :-)"

(This was immediately followed by much +1-ing, cheering, and celebrating 
by those present.)

Next week's meeting will be a sprint to make Fedora case studies; Sakis 
is leading us and will let us know what we need to do to prepare.

F12 press looks *awesome.* We will continue to monitor F12 press with 
the [in the news] tag on this mailing list; Robyn is also making a press 
page on the wiki for us to collect them in a somewhat easier to read format.

Also, looking forward to F13: we've set December 8th's meeting as our 
Big "What Are We Doing?" planning session, which gives us 3 weeks to do 
all sorts of experimentation, brainstorming, talking on IRC, phone 
calls, in-person meetups (at FUDCon and beyond). We'll then get all the 
ideas we like written up - probably on the wiki - and do the final round 
of target-setting for F13 on 12/8. The intent is to make sure that 
everyone (regardless of whether they can make FUDCon or not, or make 
that IRC time or not, etc.) gets a (more) equal chance to put their cool 
"I'm going to do *this!*" Marketing plans forth.

So keep those ideas coming! Probably the best way to do this is to open 
a new ticket (https://fedorahosted.org/marketing-team/newticket - FAS 
login needed) and set the milestone to "future releases" but we'll do a 
nice sweep before 12/8 and catch everything we can.
