Node.js Foundation Momentum Release - #1073
Conversation
|
@ZibbyKeaton When you say it came out, do you mean it was published to the Medium account? I feel like I remember seeing it, but I can't find it anywhere. 🤔 |
|
@bnb I should have clarified, we issued this over Marketwired. We have yet to post it on our website. I did, however, post a Node.js Interactive blog on our Medium channel that highlights pieces of this news release. Does that make sense? |
|
@bnb it was also sent to journalists directly upon release. |
|
oh hey friends! Have the answers Zibby provided been deemed sufficient enough for us to merge this as an archived press release? Gave this a few days for response. |
|
@hackygolucky there are a couple of nits in the markdown syntax that should be fixed before this can be merged. |
|
Am I allowed to push on Zibby's branch to fix them? |
|
@lpinca that would be delightful. Please do. |
|
Done, this is what I changed:
|
|
@nodejs/website can this be merged? |
|
cc @nodejs/ctc @nodejs/tsc |

Does this sentence look grammatically okay?

I would prefer breaking these lines at 80 characters.

While I like to have 80 chars per line, most of the markdown files in this repo don't follow this practice.

@thefourtheye @lpinca thank you! |

It looks like the requested changes were made minus a few word choices. Another press release for archiving!
|
@bnb mind helping us merge this and posting to the site? |
I was also hoping to post this momentum release to the website. It came out during Node.js Interactive, so it's a little late... But, I want it on the site for historically reference. Please let me know if you have any questions, and again sorry for my errors in advance.
