I know I have already said this, but isn't it certainly enough that they prefer messages about FreeMarker? (I suppose if someone has time to burn and so want messages defined only by some broad common interest, they subscribe to some person's tweet or such.) > Some more suggested tweets are as follows: > > Do you like our new Freemarker Twitter logo? We love it! Thanks to > everyone who voted and JulienNicolas for the graphics That bicycle shed was already painted. Overall, I would like to point out that part of the FreeMarker "culture" is that we just want users (programmers mostly) to get their job done, and that's it. So chatty are semi-relevant messages to users are kind of out of character. Personally, I would like that's value is kept. Not sure if it's compatible with social media though...

(Sooner or later I will have to pull myself together and start some Wiki page about where FM3 is going... Right now it's still too early to bother people. I was kind of busy in the recent two weeks so, yeah, I'm a bit behind with FM. Anyway, that will generate a few Tweets too.) > Thanks > Sharan -- Thanks, Daniel Dekany
