Comment (by neteler):

 Replying to [comment:2 jsanz]:
 > Thanks @darkblue for raising a concern. Maybe we could have a component
 here on Trac for the Marketing committee so tickets are also shared on the
 mailing list as we do with SAC tickets?

 +1

 > @neteler let me know if I can help on this task. I am admin of the
 [https://www.linkedin.com/company/osgeo/? OSGeo company page] (4.5K
 followers), not super busy but steadily active with a few mentions and
 follows every day.

 Yes, help is much welcome (see also below).

 > On the other hand, I was totally unaware of this group, even being a
 member, can't remember since when! Anyways, the group is "private listed"
 (why?)

 The reason I don't remember... but since we have 13k members, it seems to
 be fine. What is means (citation from LinkedIn help):

 ''Private Listed: The group appears in search results, is visible to
 others on members’ profiles, and LinkedIn users can see whether a
 connection is a member.
 Group members can see posts in this group.''

 > and yet it has 13K members so this is a large potential audience we
 should take care of, or shut down completely, but better not leaving it
 unattended.

 So, definitely take care of it and no shut down as it took us ages to
 build it up. I will continue to maintain it but not just me (see my remark
 above). For now, I have cleaned up a lot.

 And I took liberty to make you, jsanz, also admin of the group :-)
