I think we covered the most important points in this discussion - at 
least for North America.

In my eyes we didn't come to a common standing by now, but most of us go 
towards the same direction:

Local marketing is not (only) language specific, but is relevant for a 
certain area.

Dedicated marketing mailing lists could help here.

There are differences in the areas that should be covered (continent / 
countries).

This is a point we should come to a more or less common agreement.

In my personal eyes this should be consistent and comprehensible for 
comparable areas all over the world. Therefore I'd plead for areas with 
a common internal market.

I don't know if there is a common market between the North American 
states - if not, I'd vote for marketing@us.libreoffice.org as well as 
their local counterparts in Canada and Mexico. If we go with 
marketing@n.amer.libreoffice.org (or n_amer to avoid misinterpretation 
of "n" as sublevel of "amer") this would mean to drop this list and 
create three new ones, if local marketing in Canada and Mexico will 
become more active.

Best regards

Bernhard

PS: I'd like to inform the discuss list about the result (if we manage 
to reach a common agreement), because this will not only affect 
marketing but the community structure as a whole.
