Website update for 0.4.0 (incubating)
Hi,
I have updated the staging site [1] with new apidocs and download
links. If that's OK for everyone I'll publish the site on Sunday
morning (some European time). That should be enough waiting time
for mirrors.
BTW: Do we need to post some sort of announcement? If yes, to which
list? crunch-user?
Thanks,
Matthias

I guess I'll send mail to crunch-user and the incubator list tomorrow
when our Getting Started document is live.

Looks nice.

Well, there should be an announcement on the general@i.a.o also
consider CCing general@hadoop.a.o
Also, since Crunch is going to be in Bigtop 0.5.0 there will be an
announcement over there at some point.
Thanks,
Roman.

Ok, I suspected that there would be something along those lines. I can
totally get waiting until our name is approved.

I was almost starting to think that you enjoy doing the boring
organizational stuff ;-)
I'd be happy to attempt to reduce the burden of organizational stuff
that you've been doing -- I'll take on the podling name search.

Some incubating projects post to incubator-general, but that's very
rare. We should probably start with crunch-user; once we have
graduated we could either set up our own announcements list or post to
the ASF-wide one.

Things are in fact a bit more complicated because we're part of the
ASF, and even more so because we're in the incubator. See [1] and
[2] for more information.
Maybe we should wait until our project name has been approved. Someone
has to perform the podling name search, but since I've covered at lot
of boring stuff on the organizational front since I joined the
project, I'd really like someone else to do this ;-)

Sounds (and looks) good to me.

I think we should definitely (at least) post to crunch-user, but I'm wondering
if there isn't some sort of larger list we can post to. I've actually been asked
several times about how to stay on top of new releases of Crunch, and
I unfortunately haven't ever been able to give a decent answer.
On a somewhat related note, would it be interesting/useful to have a
Twitter account for Crunch, to have an additional channel to post
information about releases, etc? Anyone in favor of or against that idea (or
is there anything around being in the ASF that prevents it)?
