Forum to discuss/coordinate Haiku marketing projects

Community and wiki

Forum thread started by VV_Vasilenko on Thu, 2011-03-24 18:25

I propose

  • to create official wiki site (with support InterWiki).

    • The creating official wiki site will help to unite the community and organize information.
    Developers can use Trac, but usual users don't have a wiki site.

  • to rewrite the article about haiku in Wikipedia for conferment Featured articles or Good articles and getting a stream of possible users.

    • Should duplicate documents for users and developers in wikibooks.org

Respectfully, Vladimir Vasilenko.

Contest

I propose to make a contest.

Any user will publish a disk image (VMDK or VHD) of own Haiku.

  • This can help to create specialized distributions.
  • This can help in testing software compatibility.

Respectfully, Vladimir Vasilenko.

Idea: PC Magazines

Forum thread started by stellarpower on Sun, 2010-05-02 12:55

Being computer boffins, many of you may read computer magazines. There is a plethora of different types out there. There are publications that are dedicated to certain OS, that focus on hardware shopping, that are based on software purchasing, and even specific titles, like music production on the computer and using graphics packages. A good way to get extra publicity and attract developers and end-users would be to take advantage of these magazines. I'm quite confident that many magazine editors would be happy to review the alpha version of Haiku, or a nightly build, and at least see its enormous potential. There are quite probably be some old BeOS users in the industry who would be willing to write an article.

If you have any feedback, I'd be grateful to hear it.
