Description
We have a blog, but don't post to it very often, and most of what we are saying is administrative. That's a wasted opportunity: we have so many great projects, and so many potentially interesting technical topics, that we can and should do a lot more technical posting.
For this to work, we have to pull in the TL community in a big way. Not even just the library authors, either: we would do well to host articles from folks using the ecosystem, describing cool things they are doing with it.
Ideally, we should target a regular cadence for the blog, preferably weekly, but step number one is to come up with a pipeline: that will probably take a few months, and we should post more occasionally as we build up that pipeline.
We should think about how to collaborate to help articles happen. Many engineers have great ideas, but aren't as comfortable or practiced at writing, so we may want to see whether we can provide some assistance there.
