Re: [Evangelism] Give a place in the plone site to project build upon Plone
I think this post makes some good points as go why a plone flavours or plone distributions could have there own place on plone dot org. Are there plans ?

For example for the edu target: - the ploneEdu project seems to be dead for years but the ploneedu.org domain is always used... to redirect to others CMS. - educommons is growing and maintained translations are welcomed - educomponents seems to need fresh blood to give it a second youth Does anyone of these projects are Plone 3.3 compatible? Do they start to work to be compatible with Plone 4? The Plone Foundation doesn't have to manage them or to take the leadership in one of them. It can helps to promote them and to build group of interest around them.

I completely agree, and also plonegov may be on that list. massimo --- On Wed, Oct 21, 2009 at 12:00 AM, Encolpe Degoute wrote: > Hello, > Since years we hear: "And what can you do with your Plone site?" > Our first answer was to build the plone professional network on the > plone.net site.
