• 2019-03-20 DSpace Marketing Working Group, Agenda/Notes
• Fact-based USP items for DSpace 7 http://bit.ly/dspace7-usp
• Samvera Marketing Working Group  

Alignment / Decisions from previous meetings

1. We need a plan with actions, goals and associated target dates, aimed at marketing for DSpace 7
   1. Popular use cases, and how DSpace 7 improves on them, are powerful in marketing
   2. Facts that the SG endorses, are powerful in marketing
2. We need a more general approach for DSpace Marketing on the longer term. The group did not reach agreement on whether this can be open ended, or whether this can have a finite timeline

Discussion items

Notes

• Repository rodeo: input requested to make sure this is a community-informed presentation. Mic will be helpful. See document above and add notes. 
  • How does your repository and community address the needs of your users, particularly in relation to the other repositories and communities represented on the panel?
• Pascal has had major issues with mailing items to Hamburg. Has a better address now for the t-shirts. Target is Hamburg before OR. Monday is a national holiday. Logo is a width of 7 cm on the left side. URL on the left sleeve. Same green as the logo. 
• Printed materials would really only be important if we had the final release.
• 10 exhibitors at OR2019
• Bram notes that language feature will hopefully be part of the enhanced preview release. Would be good to start testing with the harvesters and heavy users of the API.
