Hi all,
Does anybody know if there is an official Apache OFBiz account, and if there is what it is? Regards, Pierre Smits *ORRTIZ.COM <http://www.orrtiz.com>* Services & Solutions for Cloud- Based Manufacturing, Professional Services and Retail & Trade http://www.orrtiz.com |

There is none and here is the reason: http://markmail.org/message/tuuwxs22wvfrlkm4
You might also be delighted by http://markmail.org/message/obw4itbyatuklvi7 But as you mentionned directly to me there are tons of "fake", like https://twitter.com/ApacheOfbiz https://twitter.com/ofbiz https://twitter.com/OfbizERP If you still have the longer list you can complete... https://twitter.com/apache_ofbiz and https://twitter.com/ofbiz_info are almost correctly showing the consensual "This site is not an official Apache Software Foundation site! " sentence (they actually show "Not associated with the Apache foundation") BTW Hans please add the consensual sentence at your ofbizdemo site. Like I long ago created an official blog but the PMC decided it was not a good idea https://blogs.apache.org/ofbiz/entry/apache_ofbiz_new_blog1 BTW Pierre, you added a Skype column to the Contributors page. I removed it. If people want to know their respective Skype Ids they can't contact through email. Also, I don't want to have to maintain that. You did (actually all contributors) have a write access to the OFBADMIN space. It was an error, only the wiki is open to contributors. I fixed that.

Maybe Hans can be asked to hand one twitter account over the project?

It seems the team was not wanting to bother with Tweeter, maybe things have changed?

Jacques, All,
That thread mentioned earlier was from way back in 2010. Is it still so that the community believes that an official OFBiz tweet account doesn't add to the adoption and community building of the project and its work?

There are OfBiz groups on LinkedIn for those who are not already getting
enough OfBiz info flowing through their input streams. LinkedIn discussions have the advantage and disadvantage of not being limited to 140 character notes and for the most part the messages are written in English that can be read by people over the age of 50. http://thenextweb.com/twitter/2012/09/15/a-list-twitters-language/ #nottweeting Ron On 31/07/2014 7:49 AM, Pierre Smits wrote: > Jacques, All, > > That thread mentioned earlier was from way back in 2010.

Hi Ron,
Not sure to understand why Tweeter is not good for communication. LinkedIn and Tweeter is not the same thing. You can put an article in LinkedIn and share the link using Tweeter. In this way you don't need more than 140 character because it's just a link. This link can be share really fast and easy to write. For exemple, a tweet of a new version of OFBiz can be less than 140 char and the list of fixed issues contained in a linkedIn page that people over 50 can dissect slowly. You can find pros and cons about Tweeter but it's clear that with it, the information can be write fast and shared easily. The last point could be the visibility of the project on the web. The more you are retweeted and followed, the more you are considered as interesting ;) my 2 cents Julien.

In reply to this post by JulienNicolas
I am not saying that Twitter is bad.
I just get enough stuff now and none of it requires my response at Tweet-speed. The LinkedIn group is there. It has 495 members and a stream of activity and discussion that is already active. This forum is pretty active. I am not sure how many people subscribe. Between the 2 there should be ample opportunity to share information and get the news out. That said, if people want to tweet about OfBiz, go ahead.

For sure, there is enough communication method to share news and activity.
I'm not sure that tweeter will provide better information than the other communication methods. I just think it's a place to be in 2014. Maybe you don't like (or don't need) tweeter and you don't understand why people use it. But if you want to be connected with more people, you have to do it. It's not just another communication method, it's a very used communication method. There is a lot of people that already tweet OFBiz informations but it's not the same, create an official Apache-OFBiz project account could be good for the project picture. Julien.
