1.0: Organize local events or represent AOO at regional or international events.  This might include staffing a booth and handing out brochures, or giving a presentation and/or demo.

 

Our events calendar is here:  https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Events+Calendar
If you know of an interesting local event, please add it and start a discussion on the mailing list about it.

2.0: Help design, conduct and analyze a survey of OpenOffice users, so we understand more fully who they are and what their needs and priorities are.

Discussion on list.  Graham Lauder and
Kevin Grignon have been taking the lead on this but could use more help.


3.0: Help with the brand refresh for Apache OpenOffice 4.0 (estimated release April 2013, but most brand work needs to be done in next month or so).

This might involve a public contest to design a new product logo.

 

  Discussion on list.

4.0: Help design custom landing pages for website to target more of the "long tail" of users who are unaware of OpenOffice, but where OpenOffice would be a great solution to their
problems.    This is a mix of market analysis, copy writing and SEO.
