Volunteers needed: 0.91 Release Marketing
Hi all,
As the developers put the final touches on the 0.91 release, it's high time to plan a media blitz to get this announced to all our users.
I'd like to recruit and organize a formal team to do marketing for Inkscape. This'll involve writing copy, planning announce strategies, notifying news sites, coordinating with parallel fundraising efforts, and more. We'll be organizing an online IRC meeting soon to coordinate these activities. Sound like fun?
Ryan Lerch, Josh Andler, and myself are already signed on; we've been through the release announcement process before so we're old hands. But we're looking for new ideas and fresh blood, so that we can go beyond what we've achieved in the past.

P.S. Inkscape's past marketing teams have left us a wealth of notes we can use to build from. Two items in particular:

I'm a native German speaker living in Germany, I could translate stuff from English to German and / or gather a list of German computer-related news-sites etc.

Hey Alexander,
It would be great if you could help with translating once we have drafted the language for an announcement. Additionally, gathering a list of German computer related news sites would be great too!
You message prompted me to create an announcement planning page for 0.91 [1] based on what we had done in the past. It is really bare and I have not done much other than some updating it from the 0.47 page it was based on. If you would be willing to list German sites there when you have them it would be appreciated. If you do not have an account for our wiki yet, just reply letting me know your desired username and I will get you set up with one.
Additionally, if anyone would like to do a pass over the announement planning page to update relevant areas it would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers, Josh

Welcome Elisa! Perhaps an initial task for you could be to list some French news sites and add them to the end of the wiki page Josh set up for us:
