Content don't just fall out of the sky like free software does, right
:)
More precisely, my question is: who's expected to make promotional
videos of Eclipse IDE ? Other IDEs have dedicated resources to
identify and promote new features and turn them into marketing
resources (videos, demos, talks);
in the Eclipse Community for the Eclipse IDE, is it something that is
meant to be done by contributors too, or is it something that the
Foundation is expected to take care of ?
I believe it is a combination. The foundation facilities/help where they
can but when it comes down to it what is needed is contributors end up
providing the content that the foundation then can help polish/publish.
But I'll let Wayne/Mike comment on that - but just stating what my view
is on it.
i.e. I don't expect the foundation to magically be able to do more than
what the contributors are able/willing to work with them on.
For the IoT part, I've seen much effort by the Foundation in producing
and presenting a lot of marketing material (Benjamin and Ian have done
a great job); but for the IDE, I have the impression such initiative
is now missing, whereas NB and IJ are very fruitful at doing it.
Wayne is here at J1 doing talks about Eclipse Mars together with Gunnar.
There is a booth talking about the IDE.
Of course iot is also being pushed since its a very new area compared to
the IDE.
