Dugg.

And btw, I wish the KDE marketing team would automatically handle submissions to Digg, Slashdot, etc, for important news. In Amarok our promotion team handles such tasks, which works nicely.

This could also help prevent horrible typos in the submission, *cough* ;)

I thing it would be also great if major releases feature a keynote video that shows off all the cool features. <-- Videos are easier to spread virally. i.e.: Stumbleupon, Youtube, etc.

So KDE 4.1 should definitely have a cool video. (including tons of eye candy, tutorials, feature showoffs, showoffs of features that increase productivity, features that can't be found on OS-X/Windows )

Unfurtunately, video-on-linux sucks... Most of the promo ppl have issues with that. I've made a few video's once, but these days I can't start any of the recording apps without an immediate crash... It'd be great if you could help out, really. Just talk to us on kde-promo@kde.org!

Maybe you're not the right person to promote KDE if you think Linux video sucks just because you can't make it work.

He's the guy who wrote all the KDE release annoucement. And BTW, that would also means that Aaron Seigo is "not the right person to promote KDE": http://aseigo.blogspot.com/2008/03/multimedia-its-time-to-get-serious.html
