Hi, I would like to start preparing an official Apache press release to go with the upcoming Jackrabbit 2.0 release. This will be our biggest release since Jackrabbit 1.0 was released 3.5 years ago [1], and I'd like to get also the press involved in spreading the word.
See [2] for a good example press release from Apache Tuscany. I'll write a basic draft over the next week or so, and we can work together on improving it. Ideally we should have a "final draft" of the press release available in mid-October so that we can have it released at ApacheCon US. I would also like to get a few quotes from key people included in the press release. David as the JSR 283 spec lead and Day representative would be a good candidate, and people like Arje from Hippo, Julian from greenbytes, or someone from GX, Cognifide, Jahia or Anyware could give good industry perspective.
