News Story Ideas
Hi all, During the last marketing meeting I said that I'd mail the list with some ideas for news stories to be written over the summer. This is it. :) * GTK Hackfest - we just had it; it would be great to have a summary for gnome.org * A 3.8 retrospective - once 3.8 hits the distros it would be great to have another round of marketing around the new release. This could be a re-hash of the existing marketing materials, and it could include comments or interviews with people who are using 3.8 (ideally saying what they like about it). * A looking forward to 3.10 piece - the feature proposals are in and give an idea about what we'll be releasing in October. It might be nice to have a post about that. In addition to these, we have lots of events coming up that we should be covering... * Google Summer of Code and Outreach Program for Women summer internships (June to September) - we should have posts at the beginning and end of the internship period. We could also have other feature pieces over the summer. * Marketing Hackfest (probably beginning of June) * OpenHelp Documentation Hackfest (mid-June) * Board of Directors elections (not sure when that will be) * GUADEC (beginning of August) - we should have a whole series of posts leading up to and during this. Interviews with keynote speakers and conference organisers would be good here. I'm sure there's plenty of other things that we could have as news stories. Anyone got any other ideas?
