Thanks Yi.

- For the Committer Profile, are you able to change the formatting so that the text does not wrap around the image? I attached a  picture for reference

- Could you change the title of "Newsletter News" to "Community Updates"

- The title of the Newsletter is "Bringing New Efficiencies to Automotive Software Development"
Comment 17 Yi Liu CLA 2020-12-15 09:09:40 EST
Hi Jacob,
Thanks for the feedback. The change is updated on staging.

Featured Project and Featured Committer for eclipse.org

@Yi I forgot to add the links for the featured project/committer section of the eclipse.org homepage, so I just put all the content for the section in this doc so it's a bit easier to navigate. 

Let's wait until after the newsletter is published to make this section live

Hi Yi, I just sent you a second test email from mailchimp. I followed the URL format for articles 2 and 3 (the articles that aren't on staging yet) so once those pages are live the links should work

Comment 23 Jacob Harris CLA 2020-12-16 17:04:51 EST
All the articles and newsletter homepage look good to go live:

On the mailchimp page, can we change the intro text below the "Bringing New Efficiencies to Automotive Software Development" title to read the following:

...

Over the last several years, companies in the automotive industry have increasingly recognized the business value they can gain by collaborating with other industry players to develop vendor-neutral, open source software that resolves common challenges.
 
Today, the Eclipse Foundation hosts multiple automotive working groups and a number of automotive technology projects. And we’re seeing companies from all areas of the automotive and transportation ecosystem get involved in open source software.
 
In this last newsletter of 2020, we take a closer look at how automotive technologies being developed at the Eclipse Foundation can be used to reduce the duplication of effort, simplify the complexity of multivendor projects, and optimize embedded software systems.

Wishing you a happy and safe end to 2020 and a prosperous 2021!

Comment 24 Jacob Harris CLA 2020-12-16 17:06:50 EST
For the eclipse.org homepage, we still need to add the updated content (in the attachment labeled "Featured Project and Featured Committer for eclipse.org")
However, that can wait until after the newsletter is live.
Comment 25 Yi Liu CLA 2020-12-17 08:53:39 EST
Hi Jacob,
The mailchimp text is updated.

Is not the https://staging.eclipse.org/ updated to the content you sent me?

Thanks!
Comment 26 Jacob Harris CLA 2020-12-17 09:08:50 EST
Thanks for updating the text.

On https://staging.eclipse.org/ I'm still seeing the content that was there previously (Christie and Eclipse EMFStore).

I can send you the new content on Slack to avoid confusion.
Comment 28 Yi Liu CLA 2020-12-17 10:26:55 EST
Hi Jacob,

Spotlight 3 needs the authors re-ordered. Here is the doc updated in alphabetical order.

Can we also have the text read "About the Authors" instead of "About the Author" for this and spotlight 2?
