Thanks, Guillom.
Is there
someplace other than [[Presentations]] and [[Posters]] where
people are expected to share new media?
No. But these pages are not publicised a lot.
True. They need a set of navigation links, for one.
[[Marketing]]
: Arne and elian and guillom, call your office :) this
page has helpful links, even if they are out of date. WMDOC for
instance... I liked this idea a lot, though it takes a lot of effort
for the first edition.

WMDOC is not "out-of-date"; I started it a few weeks ago, but since
I'm the only person working on these documents, it takes a lot of
time.
Yes, that's why linked to it. I mean that some of the links there may
be old, but they are all helpful.
Do we have a
modern press kit? I was looking for one the other day...
Elian's is still up on meta, but not updated. That page should be
tagged with a link to the current equivalent, or at least marked
historical. Has anyone been working on this sort of effort more
recently?
I worked with Sandra Ordonez (the foundation's previous Communications
Manager) on a new one. When Sandra was replaced by Jay, Jay told me a
new press kit wasn't his priority. As a consequence, I am working on
it alone (as part of WMDOC), as a volunteer, and it takes a lot of
time.
Ah, that rings a bell. I tied these two subjects together because
every time someone attends an event at a booth or as a speaker, they
have a need for one of those docs, and often work on one (in private).
If we get more organized about helping people go present, it will
lead to a better WMDOC library.
It's worth pinging the people who have submitted presentations so far.
I added a few navigation guides to help improve traffic to those
parts of Meta.
