Thx for input Noah. We have twitter account already and had been tweeting news about MM. Kasper also have blogged about new features in MM. I think this is why we got some new contributors lately.

It could slow down contributions if we don't get it right and many projects didn't get it right. - HS On Saturday, September 20, 2014, Noah Slater <[email protected]> wrote: > Thanks for the update. > > Have you thought about setting up a project blog and tweeting out > progress, news, things going on in wider ecosystem?
