Eric, are these going to be regular? If so, is it possible they could be posted somewhere else perhaps? I'm finding it difficult to keep up with opensolaris-discuss already.
thanks, john _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss at opensolaris dot org

Yes.

Yes I'd be glad to... I just need help figuring out where. Jim mentioned including them in the newsletter. Would that suffice? For feed-reader (RSS) users, it's easy to post them via RSS (e.g. by tagging them in del.icio.us), but I assume you're talking about posting them via a mail-list...

I think so, or even just RSS would be good enough I think.
cheers!

OK, for RSS users, let's give the del.icio.us method a shot. Here's a feed I created:
http://del.icio.us/rss/bootblog/oss:rollups
I've posted/tagged the first two, therefore they should show up immediately in your reader when you subscribe.
Going forward, new ones are easy (take just seconds) to post/tag on Delicious, and it also doesn't matter where we end up deciding to post the originals -- e.g. somewhere other than opensolaris-discuss.

What I'll do is include in the newsletter a summary of whatever Eric puts out each monthly. For the time being, the newsletter will be archived in the content project; however, that's probably not the best final home for it. I view the content project as just a working space that will help produce content for multiple venues. But I'm happy to have Eric's discussion rolls ups posted in the content project as well until we can decide where to put some of this stuff.
Ultimately, I think the articles page should be re-designed and be the home for a variety of types of content -- including the newsletter and the discussion roll ups.
Alternatively, we could propose a re-design of the news page for all of it. Currently, the news page is simply links to external news articles about OpenSolaris, and the marketing representatives manage that page. Perhaps we could re-consider the roll of that page. Perhaps the newsletter could be issued there just as if it were another news item. Or maybe the newsletter could have its own section on that page, along with a section for the discussion roll ups. Maybe articles could be moved there, too, so we have one space to point people to for a variety of types of general content (stuff that doesn't logically live within specific communities). If there is some interest in this, I can propose it to marketing and get their take, as well as flush out a proposal on the website-discuss list. Just some ideas to think about.
Jim
