Conferences and Events

In order to participate in a conference or event, you must first confirm the expense with your manager; or confirm that you will handle travel expenses yourself.

Once participation in an event is confirmed, we will publicize the following:

  • Acceptance
  • Pre-conference reminder
  • Post-conference report

Upcoming events we are looking at are listed here: http://etherpad-aeolusproject.rhcloud.com/p/Aeolus_event_planning

Releases

As a product approaches release, we will create a release page on the website (see http://www.aeolusproject.org/releases/template.html for a template).

Initially, the page will provide a high-level view - a short and easily digestable summary of what to expect from the release. This page and summary will be publicized. In the following days, we will add detailed looks at features in the release - walkthroughs, use cases, technical documentation, etc. This information will come from the developers (and from the end-of-Sprint videos), and be organized on the release page by the publicity cabal. Updates will be publicized in chunks.

Finally, once the release is out the door, we will update the release page to include information on how to obtain the release. This will also be publicized.

This etherpad tracks general release date notes: https://etherpad-aeolusproject.rhcloud.com/p/all-project-release-dates

Sprints

For each sprint, we will:

  • Publicize the end of the sprint

End-of-sprint presenters are expected to make screencasts, if appropriate. Instructions can be found here: https://github.com/aeolusproject/aeolusproject.github.com/wiki/Screencasts-recording

Publicity will consist of blog posts and Tweets.
