Wiki things
- Finish the Press Kit
- Multilingual screenshot
- NOEDITSECTION on Press Kit and Announcement after complete
- Update Release Notes (esp new features) for 1.1, move 1.1 RC relnotes to their page (see Talk:NeoOffice/J Release Notes for plan)
- Fix dates/versions in the following: NeoOffice/J ("even though its only in beta phase"),
- Version announcement on Main Page
- Lock key pages:
NeoOffice.org
- New text on front page
- ?
OpenOffice.org
- Update at least the downloads page
- Send announcement to Louis???
Listings
- Freshmeat (also update from "beta" to "stable" in the categories)
- VT
- MU
- Apple Downloads (need a "what's new since RC" list for this)
- Submit to Macintosh Products Guide
Announcement
Submit the announcement to media outlets and man the Community Relations Gmail account for follow-up
- sites with "form" or "email" after them have contact info already in emails in the Community Relations account
- Determine timing of announcement submission
- EN/EN_US
- Macintouch: form
- MacCentral: email
- MacNN: form
- MacSurfer: email
- MacObserver: email
- Slashdot/MacSlash
- dev@porting
- c|net/news.com
- how about some mainstream media?
- :
- Er, what about Apple.com Hot News (presumably that gets dispensed to all international outlets at Apple as well)??
- Ars Technica: if you could persuade John Siracusa to write a review that might be pretty cool (he could be interested in the nitty gritty of getting OOo to run natively in OS X given his other columns - might provide an interesting perspective on the "how" rather than the "why" of NeoJ). http://arstechnica.com/columns/mac.ars
- EN_UK
- , : can you add sites/publications to this section?
- : Most of the sites I visit are US ones (when it comes to Mac/Tech news) but here are some possibilities
- MacWorld (UK edition): http://www.macworld.co.uk/contact/ (not sure who to e-mail there but they should be sympathetic given the presence of NOJ on their cover CD)
- The Register is worth a shot: http://www.theregister.co.uk/odds/about/contact/ (again not sure who to e-mail, but Andrew Orlowski or Tony Smith tend to be the ones who report on Mac news)
- MacUser/PC Pro: http://macuser.pcpro.co.uk/ Magazine requests that press releases and news items should be submitted to Releases
- MacFormat Magazine: Reviews: Mark Sparrow Editor: Graham Barlow
- The National Broadsheets might be worth a go too but I suspect this would be a long shot (for their online versions in their Sci/Tech sections):
- The Guardian: online@guardian.co.uk
- The Times: online.editor@timesonline.co.uk
- The Daily Telegraph: they don't seem to have any easy to find contact address so screw them ;-)
- The Independent: ditto the Indy - no contact e-mail that I can find
- Er, I can't remember others at the moment... The Guardian runs an online blog that may pick up the news from other sites anyway, fwiw.
- : Most of the sites I visit are US ones (when it comes to Mac/Tech news) but here are some possibilities
- DE
- contact info for lots of German Mac media, provided by apfelwiki.de
- FR
- MacBidouille -> will be translated and published on HardMac if published
- NO
- Etc.
