Hey Andy,
Thanks! And yes, we can definitely wait for your questions before sending
out. That will also give the rest of the community a chance to comment in
the meantime.
It would be great to get these emails out no later than tomorrow morning US
Eastern time.
Thanks,
Lynnette

Hi Lynnette,
thanks a lot for writing this an your efforts. That's really awesome!
And ... warm welcome to the CouchDB community.
As I have written before - I have not seen this before. Unfortunately I
have an important appointment starting in the next 10 minutes. So as there
is my name also in the email, I would really like to ask you to wait some
hours till I am back. I do have some questions ...
Again - this is awesome and I really don't want to block it.
Till later
Cheers
Andy

Hi Andy,
Sorry for any confusion! I was preparing to send the pitch out to run it
by the community, and should have included some more details in my
original email. The pitch is pasted below (we've plugged some place
holder names in, but I can add or remove as needed).
In advance of the announcement, we planned on reaching out to reporters
that we (Cloudant) have existing relationships with to offer them
interviews with Apache community members to talk about the CouchDB 2.0
release. We pre-pitch so that reporters have the opportunity to get their
quotes and stories together so they can publish as soon after the
announcement as possible.
The pitch would come from me, and would be an introduction to members of
the community (whoever is interested in being copied/speaking with
media).
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Lynnette
SUBJ: Apache CouchDB 2.0 beta annc. Nov 17
Hi __________,
I was recently in touch about Cloudant Local, a new on-premises DBaaS
solution from IBM Cloudant. Now, I’d like to introduce you to Noah
Slater, Lena Reinhard, and Andy Wenk, our friends at the Apache CouchDB™
project.
On November 17 at ApacheCon Europe, the CouchDB community will announce a
developer preview release of CouchDB 2.0. The beta software adds improved
database server clustering to the open source NoSQL database, making it
easier to replicate data across different infrastructure and synchronize
changes to multiple copies of that data at large scale.
As Cloudant has grown as a company, so has our commitment to Apache
CouchDB [1], [2], [3]. Now, as part of IBM, we plan to grow that
commitment further [4], as CouchDB-style database replication becomes a
key piece of IBM’s cloud data management strategy [5].
Lena, Andy, and Noah would be happy to introduce you to members of the
CouchDB community, including VP of Apache CouchDB Jan Lehnardt. Please
let us know if you’d like to find a time to connect with Jan and the
CouchDB community.
Thanks,
Lynnette

Hi Lynnette,
erm I have the feeling that I miss something here. What is this? Has this
been discussed here or with the community? Is this a paper? I am totally
blind here ...
Before anything will be sent out in the name of Apache CouchDB community,
I
would really like to see what you are sending.
Thanks for a quick clarification.
Cheers
Andy
