[Dev] ZipTie outreach

[Tristan RHODES]

I am attending a security conference this week, and I am telling everyone here about ZipTie.  In fact, the presenter was just looking for a tool to download a config from a device to show why you should not leave the default SNMP string as "public/private".  :)

I will post an announcement to some large mailing lists that I am on.  It should reach a couple thousand people.

Keep up the good work guys!

Kartick, what do you think about some 2007.09c outreach?  If ZipTie is going to spread it needs to be viral, i.e. word of mouth, which only happens once a threshold is reached (read The Tipping Point).

Can you post announcements for ZipTie 2007.09c to these forums?

I suggest posting in the "Forum Lobby" here: http://www.networking-forum.com/

Somewhere appropriate on here: http://www.juniperforum.com/

I suggest posting to the Vyatta-announce list (http://www.vyatta.com/community/mailing.php).  Just make sure to make the post mostly about ZipTie's support of Vyatta otherwise they might reject your post - it can't be too much of an "advertisement".
