How to Use the @CloudStack Account

If you want access to the Twitter account, please ping private@cloudstack.apache.org. You must be a committer or PMC member to be granted access to the account. Odds are, however, you only want to post one or two things, so there's no need to grant access - just ask on marketing@cloudstack.apache.org to have something promoted.

You'll also want to read the social media guidelines before posting. 

Ideally, you'd send a note to the marketing mailing list with the following:

Subject:  /[PROMOTE]: Event Name Goes Here

Event time, date, details, and link to sign-up page/website promoting the event.

Suggested tweets. (e.g. "Hey, don't miss the upcoming CloudStack Meetup in Death Valley, CA. /@randomguy will be presenting #foo on 30 February 2020.")

Link to blog post that can be used on Facebook to promote event. 

Any additional details needed. 

If you don't get a follow up, ping one of the Twitter account holders (currently Chip and David).Coming soon
