If all goes well there should be a 4.0 beta release ready for public this week. Coordinating media releases around open source releases is not something I've seen much of, or have much experience with. I can imagine that it is always going to be clumsy around an organic group of individuals around the world, individuals doing their best to be independent from the companies that employ them, companies that each have own stake in the project. We just have to do our best! If people know of other OSS projects doing this well it would be great to know and learn from them. To all non DataStax folk, I've only seen Melissa's work in this community (dev and private ML). There has been nothing about this internally at DS. The only thing I've heard about the media coordination is from Josh's post here, and I made mention of it when raising the vote: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r537fe799e7d5e6d72ac791fdbe9098ef0344c55400c7f68ff65abe51%40%3Cdev.cassandra.apache.org%3E DS of course benefits from a successful OSS project, but so do we all, so do please help Melissa (and all new contributors) out, there's really no reason not to assume best intentions here. regards, Mick - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@cassandra.apache.org

Re: Media coordination (was: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 4.0-beta1)
Hello everyone --Mick pinged me about this; I wanted to respond on-list for efficacy. We've had dozens of companies successfully help Apache Projects and their communities help spread the word on their projects with their PR and marketing teams. Here are some best practices: 1) Timing. Ensure that the Project has announced the project milestone first to their lists as well as announce@ before any media coverage takes place. If you're planning to time the announcements to take place in tandem, be careful with embargoes, as not everyone is able to honor them. We've been burned in the past with this. 2) Messaging. Keep your announcement plans and draft press releases, etc., private: limit discussions to the PMC. Drafting announcements on public lists, such as user@, whilst inclusive, may inadvertently expose your news prematurely to the press, bloggers, and others before its ready. This can be detrimental to having your news scooped before you actually announce it, or conversely, having the news come out and nobody is interested in covering it as it's been leaking for a while. We've also been burned in the past with this. Synching messaging is also helpful to ensure that the PMC speaks with a unified voice: the worst thing that can happen is having someone say one thing in the media and another member of the PMC saying something else, even if it's their personal opinion. Fragmentation helps no-one. This recently happened with a Project on a rather controversial topic, so the press was excited to see dissent within the community as it gave them more to report about. Keep things co ol: don't be the feature cover of a gossip tabloid. 3) Positioning. It's critical that whomever is speaking on behalf of the Project identify themselves as such. This means that the PMC needs to have a few spokespeople lined up in case of any media queries, and that the spokespeople supporting the project are from different organizations so you can . I cannot stress enough the need to exhibit diversity, even if everyone working on the media/marketing side is from a single organization --the ASF comes down hard on companies that "own" projects: we take vendor-neutrality very seriously. What's worked well with organizations that have pitched the press on behalf of a project is to pitch the project news, have spokespeople from other organizations speak on behalf of the PMC and follow up with different spokespeople/companies that have supporting products or activities. The ability to showcase breadth of deployment demonstrates Project relevance. There have been instances of companies pre-announcing Project news and milestones before the Project has done so themselves, in the form of press releases, blog posts, articles on Medium/DZone/elsewhere, or on social media. Whilst we appreciate their enthusiasm, it has caused significant erosion of goodwill within the community, and issues with the press. Apache Projects that have been successful with outside (corporate) support to help with marketing and media relations have shared their press announcements, articles, posts, and pitches prior to going live to ensure that they are balanced and have proper attribution and form. I'm happy to help with this if needed. Briefing analysts is a bit of a different situation, and I'm happy to help with that as well.

Re: Media coordination (was: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 4.0-beta1)
Thanks Sally, really appreciate your insight. To respond to the community discourse around this: > Keep your announcement plans ... private: limit discussions to the PMC This is all that I was asking and expecting: if somebody is making commitments on behalf of the community (such as that a release can be expected on day X), this should be coordinated with the PMC. While it seems to transpire that no such commitments were made, had they been made without the knowledge of the PMC this would in my view be problematic. This is not at all like development work, as has been alleged, since that only takes effect after public agreement by the community. IMO, in general, public engagements should be run past the PMC as a final pre-flight check regardless of any commitment being made, as the PMC should have visibility into these activities and have the opportunity to influence them. > There has been nothing about this internally at DS I would ask that you refrain from making such claims, unless you can be certain that you would have been privy to all such internal discussions. > there's really no reason not to assume best intentions here This is a recurring taking point, that I wish we would retire except where a clear assumption of bad faith has been made. If you are criticised, it is often because of the action you took; any intention you had may be irrelevant to the criticism. In this case, when you act on behalf of the community, your intentions are insufficient: you must have the community's authority to act.

Re: Media coordination (was: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 4.0-beta1)
Firstly, that is a very strong claim that in this particular case is disputed by the facts. You made a very specific claim that the delay was "risking our currently lined up coordination with journalists and other channels". I am not the only person to interpret this as implying coordination with journalists, contingent on a release schedule not agreed by the PMC. This was based on semantics only; as far as I can tell, no intentions or assumptions have entered into this debate, except on your part. > Which is the definition of not assuming positive intent. Secondly, this is not the definition of positive intent. Positive intent only indicates that you "mean well" Thirdly, in many recent disputes about governance, you have made a negative claim about my behaviour, or ascribed negative connotations to statements I have made; this is a very thinly veiled example, as I am clearly the object of this criticism.

Re: Media coordination (was: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 4.0-beta1)
Thank you, Mick, Sally et al. Appreciate this discussion. Coordinating media releases around open source releases is not something I've seen much of, or have much experience with. I can imagine that it is always going to be clumsy around an organic group of individuals around the world, individuals doing their best to be independent from the companies that employ them, companies that each have own stake in the project. We just have to do our best! If people know of other OSS projects doing this well it would be great to know and learn from them. > This is a new approach for C* and our aim as a contributor is to be transparent and follow community governance and norms. We're happy to share what's worked marketing OSS in our experience, perhaps as an ad hoc presentation or on an existing call -- just let me know. I've spoken to several people in the community (from a range of companies) and everyone shares an enthusiasm for seeing C* succeed and especially 4.0 -- from publishing content (discussed here: https://lists.apache.org/thread.html/r45e124f34a05dc2871cf8b094e3f57476d651933b8a69837fda0d935%40%3Cdev.cassandra.apache.org%3E) to hosting meetups and webinars, and more. Sally, thank you for reiterating the guidelines and will take you up on a review of the 4.0 messaging. Will be in touch!

Re: Media coordination (was: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 4.0-beta1)
I don't think Benedict mentioned anything about people's motives or intentions, he simply had a concern about how marketing timelines became a factor in a release vote without the approval of the PMC. I think this is a reasonable concern, and doesn't mean that he's assuming bad intentions. That's my reading at least, although maybe I missed something? > On Jul 20, 2020, at 7:58 AM, Joshua McKenzie wrote: > >> >> If you are criticised, it is often because of the action you took; > > Actually, in this case and many others it's because of people's unfounded > assumptions about motives, incentives, and actions taken and has little to > do with reality.

This kind of back and forth isn't productive for the project so I'm not taking this discussion further. Just want to call it out here so you or others aren't left waiting for a reply.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra 4.0-beta1
I'll add in here as someone who was acting as PM on a lot of cross-team projects at my last few gigs, this is a good example of coordination improving the process. If people are unwilling to change their opinions or even express them, that is an issue. Timing of release/progress is important and pushing back on whether changes are necessary is valid too. Being aware that Marketing contributions are valid/valuable community contributions is a key to the success of a project. Seems like there were some white spaces in what was known but this was a good resolution for all. Is there some update to public documentation that can be put out there to explain the coordination and timing w/ the Marketing team? Want to make sure this isn't only included in a single email chain but is posted up for all to review and see because it's important info.

For the 4.0 beta blog/infographic -- the PMC has approved and Sally has also reviewed. I'm happy to publish on site (per dev guidelines on GitHub) unless someone else would like to volunteer and has the dev environment already set up on their machine. If the latter, would you let me know today so we can coordinate?
