Hi Thomas/Marius,
I'm curious to understand why you're not more
thrilled by this :)
Same as Thomas, I heard once or twice about DZone but never visited
the site so I can't tell if it's a good place to advertise our
releases.
Thanks,
Marius
We need the maximum tech marketing to spread the word about XWiki, and IMO we should
publish to the maximum number of web sites that accept tech announcements. Don't you
agree with this?
Or are you +0 because it's more work?
I agree that if we add, say 5-10 more web sites to update, it's going to be a lot of
work for the RM since this is manual work mostly (even though I think Sergiu tried to
automate it but I'm not sure about the result/state). So I think that the best would
be that each active committer takes 1 or 2 web sites and becomes responsible for updating
them when there's a release (the RM will just need to ping them and their name would
be part of the Release Plan documentation). I've personally been doing it regularly
for wikimatrix and it's no big deal.
An alternative would be to have a MM (Marketing Manager ;)) in charge of updating all
external sites…
WDYT?
Thanks

http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs Hi devs,
When we release a new version we publish the announcement in several places (wikimatrix,
freshmeat, wikipedia). I'd like to propose that we add DZone too.
For example I've just seen that GateIn 3.4 has been announced there:
http://www.dzone.com/links/gatein_34_is_released.html
DZone is very well know and I think it would help spread the word even more about XWiki.
So here's my +1 to add DZone to the list of sites to update when we release.
Thanks
