what's the current position towards postings on ruby-lang.org that only affect specific communities? I've seen that the Japanese version of ruby-lang.org regularyly announces new issues of the Rubyist Magazine, which is presumly only available in Japanese and thus does not matter for other language's communities.
I specifically ask this question because I have offered the Cologne Ruby user group from Germany to post an article that they're looking for someone who organises the Ruby user group as the current organisator will resign at the end of the year. I originally assumed this would be fine, but after considering the articles other languages post on ruby-lang.org I found that only the Japanese version has additional posts compared to the canonical English version.
I am definitely in favour of allowing locale-specific postings on the site to strengthen the respective local communities. What's you opinion on the topic?
Greetings

I don't know... Main focus currently are MRI's release announcements, security related posts, and occasionally (bigger) conference announcements. My impression is that locale-specific posts would not fit, and rather increase the noise level (e.g. any single RUG would only interest a very limited number of people; I'm from Germany, but Cologne is far away...). Seems to me like something that would be more appropriately discussed/announced on mailing lists or RUG's websites.
Of course that's only my personal opinion, I assume ruby-core would have to decide on a general position.
I see you point stomar, having announcements for every german RUG would be too much noise. I'd agree on that.
What do you think of regular summaries that only list the upcoming dates of RUGs, lets say once a quarter. Maybe that would be an acceptable noise level but would also benefit the local groups to gain new / regular users.
In my personal opinion, We should separate local/global conference, workshop, event from news section related release/security announces from ruby core team. And I accept to put local news to event announcement section on ruby-lang.org.
