[eclipse.org-membership-at-large] Press Activities at EclipseCon
All,
Each year EclipseCon attracts a
number of editors, reporters and analysts who attend the conference or who are
interested in receiving news from the conference. The Eclipse Foundation
tries to help member companies optimize their press coverage at EclipseCon
through a number of PR initiatives. I would ask that you please
forward this e-mail to the appropriate press people in your organization, so
they can take advantage of these opportunities.
1. Attached is
the current press list for EclipseCon. We will send an updated version 1
week before the conference.
2. The Eclipse
Foundation will issue a Community Press Release at EclipseCon. This
release will include a summary and link to all the announcements from
Foundation member companies. If you are planning to make an announcement
at EclipseCon and would like to be include in this release, please send Lynn
Gayowski (lynn@xxxxxxxxxxx) your summary
and url link by March 18.
3. The Eclipse
Foundation will provide supporting press quotes to Foundation member
organizations for their press announcements. If you would like to have a
press quote from the Foundation, please send a draft of the release and a
proposed quote to Ian Skerrett (ian.skerrett@xxxxxxxxxxx)
before March 16. We will do our best to approve these quotes within
48 hours.
4. We will have
a press interview room available at EclipseCon. This room is available
for organizations that want to hold private press meetings. The room can
be reserved in 30 minutes blocks on a first come first served basis.
Each organization will be limited to 5 30-minutes slots. To reserve
the room, please send Lynn Gayowski the times you would like to reserve the
room.
Regards,
Ian Skerrett
