Hi,
I have some comments about the idea of a Zope newsletter. Though it would
be nice to have one, a newsletter may be too formal an undertaking for a
community site.
There was a time when the zope.org site presented a feature called Zope
Weekly News, where the name "weekly" comes from a loose definition of week
which refers to any period of days longer than a week and shorter than a
year.
I think a community site that tries to do newsletters takes the risk of
going the way of ZWN. Unless someone is paid to do this, I think we better
not do it. A blog should be enough and even those aren't that easy to keep
updated.
We could also compile automatically some news items, Releases and
announcements and call them the newsletter.
i would think planetzope.org fits this description nicely
Good analysis, Carlos. I agree that keeping a newsletter up to date on a
weekly basis is very hard to do, and it may indeed be a good idea to
instead try something else that is more automatic.
planetzope.org is indeed a good start. Luckily Michael Haubenwallner of
planetzope is a datamunger, and is working on involving other sources of
news, such as zope related del.icio.us links.
Michael, what do you think?
Regards,
Martijn
