[amjjawad - Roadmap Proposal]

1- TO-DO for this cycle (Trusty Tahr):
a- https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/CommunicationsTeam/November2013 - carry on with reports

b - keep our Social Media Channels as active as possible: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuGNOME/CommunicationsTeam#Our_Channels which will eventually lead to more growth hopefully in both quality and quantity

c- make sure the internal communication is maintained to the highest level as it is very important for Ubuntu GNOME Team (all the sub-teams) to communicate with each other and remain motivated and work as a team. All that can be achieved with a healthy communications between everyone, mainly on the mailing lists.

2- We need to Recruit More Contributors.

3- I need at least 'two' members to step in for the position of Ubuntu GNOME Communications Administrators to handle these tasks:
a- cover my absence for whatever reason.
b- recruit more contributors.
c- continue to work on the Wiki Area and maintain it.
d- Launchpad administration work: accept members, etc.
e- Social Media Administrators

In short, each sub-team needs a backup to cover the absence of the Team Leader of that team + to help him in order not to burn out. This eventually will help to develop a great healthy and friendly environment based on 'Team Work' which is our highest priority and forever target.

4- Social Media Moderators: we need 2-4 for each channel (Facebook and Google+)

5- Discuss (in a meeting OR on the mailing list) all the above + other 'possible' suggestion as far as the time allows.

Note: I strongly and highly recommend a Google+ Hangout Session which can be also recorded so everyone can watch and learn more.
