Hi Thomas/Marius, I'm curious to understand why you're not more thrilled by this :)
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?
