Re: [libreoffice-marketing] LibreOffice in the Press -- Proposal

Hi :)
No-one would update it.  There are so many articles and things out there that it is easier just to 
do a google search if you need a list of articles.  

People who do get articles published have said they wouldn't want to update the wiki because they 
felt it would be inappropriate for them to promote their articles.  

Back when the page was created there was a need for it but now it's only really used as a 
historical record.  Now it would just absorb resources that would be better used elsewhere.  
Regards from
Tom :)

I would like to propose this:

That the "LibreOffice in the Press" entries be input into a Google Calendar that could be read both 
on the wiki as well as on the website. The location of the link on the website would be under the 
"About Us" button next to the "Events Calendar" button.

This will serve the purpose of raising the profile of the "LibreOffice in the Press" page; allow 
visitors to the website to better see our mention in the press in a more visual way; the occasions 
where we record LibreOffice in the press material will be listed in a calendar sort, allowing 
visitors to better pick reading materials closer to a release date where it really matters to them 
(we could make note on the calendar of the different release dates as reference dates).

The present "LibreOffice in the Press" is really not being used for any purpose other than the 
occasional dissection for marketing purposes. This will raise its profile on our website and create 
more of a "buzz" for the product. We could still pull data from this form of reporting for 
marketing purposes.

How would the press clippings would be entered would be organized the same way as the events 
calendar which is the marketing team members would take care of the calendar management, and, we 
could ask for extra help from members to admin the calendar (just as we did with the events 
calendar).

Cheers,

Marc
