>> planet.ofbiz.apache.org, linked to our own personal various blogs, >> showing ofbiz-tagged messages. I like the idea of planet.* style. Because planet.* is very common pattern to share the thoughts by internal user of project. Thoughts can be related to project or supporting technologies in the market. For ex: http://planet.centos.org/ & http://planet.ubuntu.com/ I agree on David's comment for using OFBiz docs area (OFBADMIN & Wiki) & would personally like to go with it. But in my opinion we may need to expose these changes to the user visiting to the ofbiz home page to attract and increase his/her involvement in the project. So Here I would like to propose a thought / idea : On the home page(http://ofbiz.apache.org/) we have section titled "In the News". Lets divide section into two parts : 1) Internal News : The links present on this section will go to the page present inside ofbiz docs area (i.e confluence). 2) External News : Will navigate to external resource. Now each section(Internal or External) will contain the 5 min. & 10 max. topic that are recently added. If the limit exceeds(more then 10) then we should add a link (Read More .... ) and this link will redirect to a page on Confluence where we will get all the links of Internal or External Articles. If we like to have two page for Internal & External document then this approach is also fine, I think. Please let us know your thoughts on this.

Guys, I think it's time that we push this forward. I have a few
initiatives that we've been working pretty hard at that I'd like to put up there: 1. Accounting Enhancements 2. Building a CSR application 3. Payment Processors -- Chase Orbital -- PayPal Express Checkout -- Other PayPal enhancements -- etc 4. Shipping Integrations -- UPS work -- USPS work -- etc I hope this will get others to start putting "news" up there for people to see and getting some more accolades for the contributors when they do. Hans and the project management app, Brainfood contributing WebSlinger, David's ExecutionContext work for multi- tenancy - these are examples of things that don't get publicized in (and more importantly outside for that matter) the project enough and starting here could work. Anyways, I'm pushing forward, and hopefully you guys'll follow my lead on this as I'd love to get more information out about all of the cool things that everyone is doing.

Great point - I'll put those points there, and then I'll show everyone
what I'm talking about as far as a "news" article that we'll link to the home page. This is to encourage PR-like activities that will hopefully start out as fresh content, but will get everyone motivated to help publicize the project more effectively. Thanks for the pointer David - that's a great place to start.
