[Evangelism] plone dot com

[Dylan Jay]

hi,
I know Limi mentioned something about wrestling that domain back but I
just wanted note my observations on something I like about what drupal
has done: giving different messages to different people.
I discovered drupal.com the other day which is a slick marketing type
site emphasising case studies of drupals use. That is probably
targeting those deciding which CMS to use, or media. With the dot org
it's more about engaging with people who will download and
"participate" in opensource. So the dot com and the dot org kind of
separate out those that understand community opensource and those that
don't. That's pretty cool.

For Plone,
- plone dot com (how cool is plone),
- plone.org (how to get involved)
- plone.net (who can I sue/get a solution quickly)
would be a great separation of messages (although I think plone.net
could be folded back into dot org or dot com to increase it's link
juice)

There are more open source communities that have this setup.
It would be nice to have a dot com site with a marketing story
That way, those deciding won't get confused with versions of addons or
documentation they don't understand.
