My personal opinion on all of this is that there should be plans for 
short term goals and long term goals to help create an effective 
marketing group. Short term goals are always comforting for newer 
members to the marketing team. Long term goals are usually based on a 
more organized and cooperative effort by all members. We do have a "Work 
Items" wiki page[1] but it does not seem to have seen much action lately.

I also think that an agenda should published prior to the meeting so 
that marketing members can come to meetings well prepared. This seemed 
to work quite well previously.

Marketing meetings should occur on a regular basis so that people can 
familiarize themselves with regular marketing members as well as to help 
with team building. Maybe then, the marketing list will see a little 
more discussion and completed work items.

I still think that voice calls are still the best way to meet, IRC is 
good as complementary tool.

Cheers,

Marc
