Hi everyone,
I'd like to improve our tech marketing by sending XWiki release announcements
to web sites that people know about/use. So this thread about brainstorming
about those sites.
So what sites do you think we should send release announcements to?
Note that at the moment we publish on:
- Wikipedia:
* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XWiki
* http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/XWiki
* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_wiki_software
- FreeCode:
* http://freecode.com/projects/xwiki/releases/new
- Wikimatrix:
http://www.wikimatrix.org/edit/XWiki
- OW2:
- http://forge.ow2.org/projects/xwiki
Also note that news published on FreeCode are republished by other news sites
(I don't have the list).
So let me start by proposing:
- DZone:
* http://www.dzone.com/links/index.html
* Submission form:

Please add yours here!
The H Online [1] is a good tech site, with frequent release
announcements, but I think that it's not open to user submissions, since
it's an editorial site. We could try to ping them after each major
release to post an announcement. I only saw one XWiki post [2], for 3.0.
Their release announcements are usually of medium length, so our usual
short notes won't be enough, and the full release notes will be too much.
LWN [3] is another good release site, although they tend to be oriented
towards less "enterprise" products. Again, it's an editorial site, so we
can't publish announcements ourselves.
I think that we should try to get at least once a year an announcement
on these sites, with the summary of the top ten features introduced in a
cycle.
