Re: las-gnome Press Release/email for CFP



Hey all, 

I made some more minor edits and put it in wordpress, ready to publish to the GNOME News section. 

Can you guys take a look before we publish? https://www.gnome.org/?p=7194&preview=true

I'm also including it below for those of you who can't see the preview. 

If there are no handwaves and / or shouts, I'll post this at 17:45 UTC tomorrow, Wednesday the 8th of June. If you have access to our wordpress and see something you'd like to fix, please do so.  

Thanks!

Best, 
Nuritzi

Hi All,

I did two different (well, almost identical) drafts of the cfp announcement. If you have a chance, can you take a look (text below) and let me know:
    1. Do you prefer one over the other?
    2. Do you have suggestions for changes for the one you like better?

Nuritzi took a quick look and made a few edits, and we're planning to send out the final version in the morning. Sorry for the short notice! I sent this earlier but the email bounced.

Thanks!
Meg
