2012-07-18 Thread Allan Day
Hi all, GUADEC is a great opportunity to generate publicity around GNOME. Marketing can also help people who aren't able to attend to stay in touch with the conference and feel like they are involved. It would be great if we could have a series of GUADEC reports posted on gnome.org during the con

Hey- There are several WP plugins that are made exactly for this, scheduling posts on your site so as to keep it active. I think some send email notifications, and include calendars of your posting schedules. Should I look into it? Christy On Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 8:45 AM, Karen Sandler wrote:
