Folks,
thanks for releasing 2.7, that is great news! And I love the new
Administration interface, that was a great surprise to see.

But I missed a general note to the user list, twitter, blog, and so on.
We can do much better when we coordinate this type of event a bit. It is
a really big step for Mapbender and can attract more people.

Same applies to our regular meetings (which I unfortunately cannot
attend anymore due to other obligations). Anyone with an idea how we can
improve the communication? And it would really help the project if we
could grow the developer community. With the current product state I
think we have a really good status again. Marc and me committed to do
some more outreach including videos of using the new Geoportal-RLP and
maybe some ESDIN stuff I have been involved with recently. This is the
perfect time to start doing this.

Unfortunately we will not have a workshop at FOSS4G (the first time ever
since it FOSS4G was born!) and probably also very low representation in
presentations. This is most unfortunate because we are wasting a lot of
marketing potential - and this includes all the businesses involved with
Mapbender. I really don't know how to improve this. All ideas are welcome.


Best regards,
Arnulf
