I have added contributors who have expressed an interest in the Marketing team or may have useful links to help the work preparing the About Page content, any FAQs, social media, work with Training, Meetup resources from a marcomms perspective. You do not need to be listed as a participant to be involved or be able to access this reference card, the trac ticket or the documents. We can only add 10 participants per issue, so the names are added temporarily to highlight this card.
[Collieth - it does not allow me to tag you, can you please let Meher have your GitHub ID to see if we can then tag you to cards/ issues. Thanks]

This card acts a quick reference for most useful background documents of reference. Please feel free to add further ones. Thanks.

The trac ticket relating to the About Page where designs and discussions on the design/ mechanics / coding of the page.

Documents relating to marcomms are stored in the Marketing Drive - in the releases and then the 5.9 folder. Please save any new documents in this area and add a link to them when they are able to be shared. Thanks
