99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This talk will give an overview of
what the Debian publicity team does

2
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and how they work and how you can
support them.

3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Please give a warm round of applause to
Cédric Boutillier and his talk

4
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"Debian, a giant with a tiny voice"

5
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
[Applause]

6
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm sorry, I have a kind of technical
problem.

7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't remember the shortcut to bring
full screen in okular.

8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Ctrl-Shift-P… ok, thank you.

9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is my first DebConf, so I would like
to take this opportunity to present myself

10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm Cédric Boutillier, I'm known as boutil
on IRC and I'm a Debian member

11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
since 2012 and a couple of years before
that, I started contributing to Debian

12
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
as a member of the ruby team.

13
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I also joined the french localization team
and I started to translate

14
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
some announcements and that's how I became
part of the publicity team.

15
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What I will talk about today is
the structure of the publicity team,

16
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the various services we are handling in
the team and how you can in fact

17
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
get involved in the team and promote
Debian through the publicity team.

18
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So, what is the structure of the team.

19
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's a bit complicated because in fact the
publicity in Debian is for the moment

20
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
two teams: the Press team and the
Publicity team.

21
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The members of the Press team are
delegated by the DPL and

22
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they can speak in the name of the project
when it's needed

23
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to contact for example journalists.

24
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They have a private mail alias
press@debian.org and they serve as a

25
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
contact point for journalists and the
outside world.
