list of places to send release announcements
Originally created by: percival.music.ca@gmail.com
The old list under "unsorted policies" is out of date. (I wrote a nice email about this problem, but I can't find it now)
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/contributor/major-release-checklist
Until we have a new list, I'm not going to make announcements anywhere other than lilypond.org and info-lilypond@gnu.org
If you want to work on this issue:
- where should we send announcements? I want links to the exact place; i.e. don't say "let's announce it at lwn.net", say "dump the announcement to lwn.net/projects/announce-release.php" (fake url)
- if there's any kind of login or signing up to a mailing list before posting is allowed, put that in a separate list. We might make a separate lilypond-announce email account for such things (unfortunately IIRC gmail officially bans sharing an email account, so it would have to be somewhere else)
- usenet, mailing lists, websites, social stuff like twitter/facebook/google plus?
maybe see issue 940 as well.
ETA: 10 hours.
(PS. I'm serious about the priority; this issue is definitely not high priority)
