[12:21:34] <acsr> carolsixfeetup: Hi

[12:22:02] <carolsixfeetup> acsr: hello!

[12:22:24] <acsr> I am writing an eMail to motivate you to deliver a success story to quote on the main page!

[12:22:39] <acsr> So I catch you now directly ;-)

[12:23:13] <carolsixfeetup> acsr: still send the email, I tend to forgot if it is not in front of me

[12:23:33] <acsr> I selected some topic and now personally ask people to provide more distilled stuff.

[12:23:53] <carolsixfeetup> also Gabrielle is planning on working on p.com on Friday during the tune-up and she is the one who will actually be our author :)

[12:24:06] <acsr> cool

[12:25:15] <carolsixfeetup> I will be glad to help

[12:25:35] <acsr> send!

[12:26:10] <carolsixfeetup> Will you have specific items for people to work on during the tune-up on the 21st?

[12:26:28] <acsr> I need more exchange to hold speed!

[12:27:01] <carolsixfeetup> I know some people are planning on working on p.com and it would be good have alist of items sorted to say yes take this one :)

[12:27:01] <acsr> Sorry afk for 15 minutess

[12:27:01] <carolsixfeetup> k'

[12:58:15] <aclark> welcome back, pmxbot!

[13:32:33] <acsr> aclark: good to ask for signals from TV1!

[13:33:39] <aclark> acsr: thanks!

[13:33:42] <aclark> *crickets*

[13:33:43] <acsr> I am collecting fresh background stories that can be quoted from the frontpage and serve as Portlet content food.

[13:33:52] <aclark> Ah! Cool

[13:34:24] <acsr> some already requested. People poinged and in discussion.

[13:34:54] <acsr> see https://www.trello.com/card/collect-case-studies-for-initial-launch-prior-to-plone-conference/50465ecb7f12337f5e230dd6/16

[13:35:34] <acsr> need to rach out for matt, maurizio at last because i hope they read!

[13:35:39] <acsr> reach

[13:36:15] <acsr> If you have stories from the requested areas. Even hints, let me know.

[13:36:35] <acsr> First I write down, then I work on it.

[13:37:04] <acsr> I send mails to dylan, carol and talked to Martin Ragg.

[13:37:30] <acsr> If you can ask someone else personally if you know him fine

[13:38:19] <aclark> Very cool

[13:39:07] <acsr> I hoped the other basic stuff under the tabs would be processed by others. But Rose resigned.

[13:42:30] <aclark> Rose resigned? Well, I think she just asked that others jump in.

[13:42:35] <aclark> She is going on vaca soon IIRC

[14:17:03] <acsr> Ah

[14:18:52] <acsr> First I was in fear I upset her because I relied on your statement she asked you to copy paste. But I think I could make that clear after your statement. Thank you!

[14:20:55] <aclark> acsr: Right! No worries I don't think. Everyone on this team has fairly tough skin :-)

[14:42:46] <acsr> aclark: The professional design is in fact no problem for us here. But I avoid to burn the candle from both sides. I am not focusing this, but i can swear we do not end up with nothing. What I can provide is a mockup of a suggested panel layout inside a grid. This is primary IA. But the overall design of a professional website is more than adding a style sheet and tinker around with tiles. It is like working with an orchestra. Lets try to hold al

[14:45:51] <aclark> acsr: yep

[15:09:36] <acsr> nutjob: just peeping ;-) ?

[15:10:13] <acsr> Hah, you moved!

[15:10:18] <nutjob> Heh!

[15:10:48] <acsr> Can you take small tasks, when not saving the universe?

[15:11:48] <nutjob> Certainly!

[15:14:16] <acsr> I still öook forward to feedback on this stuff: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QNuBp45hz9vtmcZljUXQBkQ4L9zWKSLNJivFKvpR6XI/edit

[15:14:40] <acsr> You have the feeling for impact I think.

[15:15:07] <acsr> It is just a proof if this approach can work.

[15:16:29] <nutjob> Okie doke, looking.

[15:16:35] <acsr> if have bricks to fill in, let me know. Was, is Plone helpful at your job to improve a project part by 1%, and how many areas sum up.

[15:17:01] <acsr> You are working still with NASA?

[15:18:59] <nutjob> Gotcha. OK. And yes, still with NASA, still promulgating Plone wherever I can.

[15:21:46] <acsr> THX in advance. Try to add some more spirit...feel free to edit. I am not native speaker, sorry.

[15:22:19] <nutjob> No problem! I think I understand the direction we're wanting to take.

[15:27:21] <acsr> My question is: Do you think this approach does enter the brain and ends up with a helpful result to promote Plone. I am not uncertainly, but It helps if we get explicit statements that agree and not stay neutral. And if there are seriuos drawbacks we need to clean friction out to some point. (But not to smooth, Impact is feelable!)

[15:31:20] <nutjob> My feeling is that people generally react well to statements that come from either authoritative or reputable sources, that are either factual on the surface or at least independently verifiable, and that have a tacit passion that shows dedication to a platform but that doesn't border on overt salesmanship.

[15:43:36] <acsr> nutjob: Yes. But tried to build up the value first and then bind it to the features of Plone. If you compare the goals you mentioned with the approach, Where is the balance now from your point of view?

[15:43:49] <acsr> Please add this to the comments!

[15:45:10] <acsr> The quotes can be placed strong as a callout next to the headline or above. This is layout.

[15:46:31] <acsr> passion and competence is the pairing I love and you need to move something.

[15:48:20] <acsr> specially I would like to proof if matching "Start Small – Grow Big is Everywhere in Plone" with details can work.

[15:48:21] <acsr> "

[15:48:59] <acsr> If not, we need to change that.
