<div>I like the idea of a short blog post that can reach potential contributors who aren't following our mailing list. We have to remember that not everyone is as engaged as us when it comes to following mailing lists. Like Joseph said, it gives people something
 to link to (like me, tweeting, for instance). If we can reach even one more contributor then surely that's a good thing.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It doesn't seem particularly important an to me who does it, but I don't think that anything should go out without the full endorsement of the activation leads, since they have to "own" it. I understand that the organizers of this activation are already
 quite busy and like Heather's compromise of pulling together text that can be edited and approved by the activations leads. Thoughts?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>Definitely something for a later working group to hammer out in more detail though.</div>
