Hi, folks,
I don't know who, if anyone, is still on this list. It would be great to hear from you all, and what your interest is in this list.
Over the last few months, I've been swamped with all manner of things, and the blog, and social media, has suffered as a result. You may have noticed.
I need help in keeping these things alive, and filled with useful, non-spammy, content. I'm hoping that either someone here, or someone we can get to join us here, can step up and help make that happen.
Places where I need help:
* Monthly newsletter. I'm drafting this right now. I'm only a day behind schedule at this point, but having a way to do a running draft all month, and publishing it when it's due, rather than the last-minute scramble, would be awesome.
* Monthly newsletter translation. Over the years we have provided the newsletter in a variety of languages. Having some consistency on this would be great.
* Twitter. Daily tweets about what's happening in the SIGs important topics on the mailing list, event promotion, would be great.
* Facebook. Our facebook page is already pretty active, but an awful lot of it is spammy. Having *quality* content there, daily, would be a huge improvement.
* Blog. Useful, technical articles, weekly, would be awesome. But this needs someone to go looking for that content, getting people to write it, running a schedule so that we have regular content. We have a LOT of people who, I think, could write these articles, if we go about it well.
