Hello Marc,

Thanks... BTW this blog is a mess. No post is chronologically ordered.
Immanuel may have a point with his suggestion. Mind if I ask what's
possible to do on our website directly ?
Best,
Some of our blogs are on Wordpress. I believe that the infrastructure
move will also bring a consolidation of blogsites into one server and
under the TDF control. But for now, even some of the nl blogs are set up
on Wordpress.
We follow all the same format:
http://blog.documentfoundation.org/
http://libomarketing.wordpress.com/
http://libodocs.wordpress.com/
We wanted to make the blog sites accessible to the people blogging on
them. Yes, Silverstripe, our CMS, is also able to do blogging, but for
now this is what we have. I also think that Italo is comfortable using
the Wordpress system.
If you have any suggestions, feel free to comment. BTW ... the top
comment box on our blog is a general statement of our group; all other
articles under this are in date format order.
Does this explain the "mess"?
Yes, probably :-)
My observation so far (sorry if sounds like critics, it's not meant to
be):
- the "editorial line" is unclear
- inasmuch as I DON'T like the blog.documentfoundation.org design, we
should try to come up with something more visually pleasing here.
- last but not least, libomarketing.wordpress.com has two issues, of
which you obviously no control over: it shouts "but they couldn't even
afford a domain name, like marketing-blog.libreoffice.org and two, it
insets the infamous "LibO" again, but leaves LibreOffice behind.
So... where do we go from there?
First of all I'd like to thank you Marc and the authors of this blog for
keeping it going.
Given the amount of content there is on the blog I'd like to suggest a
redesign and a proper URL, or a cloning and reopening under a hosted
install.
What do you think?
best,
Charles.
No problem, AFAIK, Florian is temporarily funding costs associated to
domain name, so, I don't think there will be a problem with this. As the
marketing arm of LibreOffice, we should also ask for the same for the
docs team, so that we are consistent.
Visually, sure, feel free to suggest a design or ask the design team for
input, then we can surely make it work. BTW, if the design can be a
universal one for not only our blog but also of our wiki section, that
would be great ... it's another item on my to-do wishlist.
Editorial line, sure, if you can work out one that satisfies both Italo
and yourself for our section.
Quite frankly, I was hoping that we would have made more of the blog,
but up until recently there was no push to use it effectively, I am all
for making it more of a marketing tool, the reason for which this
thread. We can raise awareness of our marketing team and hopefully
attract marketing contributors.
Sorry, after re-reading my last reply, it sounded a little critical of
your critique as well -- which it was not meant to be. Such is the
nature of emailing [*sigh*].
Cheers,
Marc
