[libreoffice-marketing] Re: Request for draft for http://www.libreoffice.org/get-involved/marketers/

Hi Drew,

Thanks for this. Well done.

I also think that Marketing is about people and passion. Not sure if you 
would want to add the "and passion" thingy.

We people, who have marketing at heart, do so due to our passion of the 
product and we generally join projects such as LibreOffice because we 
believe in the product and its impact on users. So, in short, Marketing 
people are the type of individuals you meet at conferences who show an 
abundance and exuberance of passion for their product.

2 corrections in text that I have applied: members and marketing.

Cheers,

Marc
