One easy way to raise JSPWiki's profile is to provide a page showing all
the external sites using it. I created this for Apache Roller:
"https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/ROLLER/WhoUsesRoller";. To
find out Roller bloggers, I googled a text string that is usually
present on Roller's login page ("powered by apache roller weblogger
version ..."). If JSPWiki could place a similar, non-obtrusive string
on its login page (or actually anywhere, doesn't matter) googling on a
monthly basis should see an increasing number of Wikis that could be
added to a "WhoUsesJSPWiki" page. Seeing all the impressive ways
JSPWiki is being used is a ton of easy advertising all by itself.

Hi folks,
the question at hand is to increase JSPWiki’s publicity - how can we do that?
Unfortunately Open Source also consists of lot of advertising otherwise no user
will ever use it :-)
* the presentation at ApacheCon 2014 was a start
* I also presented JSPWiki at my local Java User Group
* very likely I will do another presentation at the Linux Days in Vienna
but this only reaches very few people :-(
So what can we do to get more users?
* Anyone in the mood to write an article and try to publish it?
* Are there any conferences were JSPWiki can be easily presented?
* Any other and better ideas?
Thanks in advance
