I've a list with press contacts, if you ping me, I can pass the news on.

Of course we're also happy to make any relevant announcements on The Dot, our official news site.  And in general if you need help with anything regarding volunteers for promo tasks for the DS feel free to solicit kde-promo kde org (note: it's an open/public list).  

Last but not least, we're having a KDE Promo sprint where several of us are meeting in person from May 6-8.  One of our agenda items is to work on the marketing for the DS.  Is there anything specific that needs to be done at this point that you could use our help with?  I haven't done a very good job keeping up on this so far.

Thx,

Justin
