I don't want to have to follow several people, or run a tag search, to see what's changed in Launchpad. Not everyone has write access to the LP Twitter and identi.ca accounts but I can certainly give that access to members of the Canonical LP team and will act as a proxy for community contributors. > A short tweet that actually gets sent promptly is better than a blog > post that gets procrastinated about. I agree but I think we should always aim to blog about changes that are interesting, either because of the impact they have on people who use Launchpad or because they are implemented in some cool way. I speak to the teams leads fairly frequently about interesting stuff that's coming up and we're pretty good at blogging about these with little procrastination. A tweet, dent or update to the FB page are also good, though. I don't want to be a bottle-neck to getting features announced but I am mostly definitely available to help/do such announcements. If you're working on something that you reckon is announcement-worthy, and it seems I haven't spotted it, do ping/mail/call me. -- Matthew Revell -- https://launchpad.net/~matthew.revell Launchpad.net -- cross-project collaboration and hosting _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
