For now, the major things I'm looking for are: 1) Comments on previous postings. I'd still like to see more key elements which differentiate FreeBSD from the other OS choices. 2) Pointers to media usable for a PR source material site. Again - clip art, outlines and -brief- summary statements about the OS and its history are all excellent inventory. 3) A list of existing PR contacts. This includes Daemon News et al. (Who currently maintains this?) Anything you can offer for the above would be great. I'm currently familiarizing myself with reams of old material and searching for new. This is going to be a -very- dry weekend. > I'll pull the thoughts of an experienced press releaser I know > (conventional, and net based). This would be -highly- useful, Eric. Most of my experience is in providing source material for our publishers' marketing departments, and for entertainment products for that matter. A few good template documents and some practical advice will help me learn to make up for the missing middle men and different product line. > Upcoming list! IE, Future file along with ERRATA. This might > help tune users ahead of time too.. I'd love to see something held internally so we know what we'll be showing off in each coming release. But this should be done without committing incomplete code to dates. No dates, not even estimates. It's almost a given these days that product development is driven by marketing, which is something entirely incompatible with FreeBSD's development model.
