Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are identified. Start by comparing the proposed channels: the CfP website, GitHub Projects, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, a project website, and Substack. Done requires a decided public-update approach, but the issue does not define which channel or implementation is wanted.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Came up in the context of talking about potential friends/partners of the project and how to keep them up to date (hopefully in a not-too-technical manner).

  • project updates on the CfP website?
  • GH projects updates?
  • social media (IG, FB, LinkedIn)?
  • blog on our own (yet to built) website?
  • blog on a platform (Substack...?)?
