Hi Aizhamal,
This is a great idea. I think it would help Beam to be more prominent on
social media.
We need to discuss this also on the private@ mailing list but I don't
see anything standing in the way if the PMC always gets to approve the
proposed social media postings.
I could even imagine that the PMC gives rights to a Beam community
member to post in their name.
Thanks,
Max

Is PMC definitely in charge of this (approving, communication channel,
etc)?
There could even be a more concrete pull-request-like function even for
things like tweets (to minimize cut/paste operations)?
I remember a bit of a mechanism having been proposed some time ago (in
another circumstance), though doesn't look like it made it terribly far:

(I haven't otherwise seen such functionality).

As a twitter user, I like this idea.

Hello everyone,
What does the community think of making Apache Beam’s social
media presence more active and more community driven?
The Slack and StackOverflow for Apache Beam offer pretty nice
support, but we still could utilize Twitter & LinkedIn better to
share more interesting Beam news. For example, we could tweet to
welcome new committers, announce new features consistently,
share and recognize contributions, promote events and meetups,
share other news that are relevant to Beam, big data, etc.
I understand that PMC members may not have time to do curation,
moderation and creation of content; so I was wondering if we
could create a spreadsheet where community members could propose
posts with publishing dates, and let somebody to filter,
moderate, and manage it; then send to a PMC member for publication.
I would love to help where I can in this regard. I’ve had some
experience doing social media elsewhere in the past.
Best
Aizhamal
