In order for the Drupal Branding and Marketing Committee to be successful, the group and four associated projects need to be used in order to split what needs to be done into manageable components, just as the Drupal project itself does for the software side of things.
It has come to my attention the reason this infrastructure is not being used at the moment is because no-one has a clue on how to use the system. I tend to agree as it's only recently since Tezza sat down with me at our BADCampUK marketing sprint and went through the process that I understood it a lot more. Since then I've helped out with a few issues like case studies and marketplace listings and I'm a lot more confident in how to use them now. But we need more people to join in, and we need people to understand how we can set things up so we can do big things, for example plan the Drupal 8 launch.
So far I've found a couple of videos, please post here if you can help in any way, I thought I'd post so people know what I'm working on at the moment and can join in.

Setting as 'critical' as we need to get over this hurdle - people can't just guess what we need or want so we need to use the system we have.

Still learning!
