For those who might wonder what I do as advocacy coordinator, I've just 
updated for the month my list of accomplishments at:

   http://wiki.python.org/moin/AdvocacyAccomplishments

My short list of things to tackle next is at:

Suggestions and feedback are appreciated, as is volunteering to create 
podcasts, screencasts, artwork or whitepapers.  There is a list of writing 
ideas at:

   http://wiki.python.org/moin/AdvocacyWritingTasks

and ideas for articles at:

   http://wiki.python.org/moin/ArticleIdeas

For screencasting I'm working with Ian of ShowMeDo.com to create a collection 
of 5-minute videos targeted at those new to or unsure of Python, to make them 
aware of the strengths of the language in areas in which they might be 
interested.  We welcome contributions - they're only 5-minute talks.

And on the low burner we've got some wiki pages bubbling about how to help new 
programmers get into Python, at:

   http://wiki.python.org/moin/Advocacy/ProgrammingForNewprogrammers

We could use any ideas that might occur to you as you read those wiki pages.
