Create press kit #203

Open m52go opened 3 years ago

m52go commented 3 years ago

Often, journalists and other people will cover Bisq and get something wrong: some element of its history, something about the DAO, etc.

Rarely someone will cover Bisq and get everything right—either because they took the time to talk to a contributor directly, or because they took the time to look through and read Bisq documentation.

It's not fair to expect a journalist trying to be first to break a story (or anyone else, really) to spend hours learning about Bisq to write an article on it. Sometimes it's a minor mistake, but often it's not.

There should be a press kit to condenses key information about Bisq into a simple package so that anyone can get the basics quickly.

Such a package should include, at a minimum:

This will likely be another page on the website. Presentation doesn't need to be particularly fancy, but items should be presented cleanly so people can find exactly what they need and not get lost.

Please speak up if you're interested in helping with this. It will likely need to be a joint effort since most of these items are scattered.

Relative to other bounties in this repository, it's not as high of a priority, but can still be completed in parallel with other tasks.

I really like idea.

I would be happy to get involved in this.

I would be happy to deliver this as a completed downloadable PDF with some nice graphics that could be added as to a press page on the website.

Also happy to complete complete as a website XD prototype that can then be added to the website.

m52go commented 3 years ago

Cool! I've seen some press pages delivered as a PDF for certain information. My opinion is that any kind of downloadable file is on the inconvenient side nowadays and it might be better to just put everything in a web page (might be better for SEO too? not sure).

Anyway would you like to get started with a rough outline for content and/or design?

Yes that is great. Happy to both PDF and website page. I will put the content together before the design and send it you for review before moving onto design.

pazza83 commented 3 years ago

Do you have a brand pack / guidelines outlining:

Is there a repository for design files? For example previous designs for live events, GUI, website etc. Or files such as: PSD, AI, XD, IND, TTF.

Happy to from scratch, but if I do not have to it would take less time.

m52go commented 3 years ago

Hi @m52go

Please see below my draft for the content. I would welcome any feedback.

I will make it look pretty in the design phase, the below is just the content that will be included for the XD and PDF designs.

Short history of Bisq

Here is a timeline showing important dates for Bisq:

We’re a DAO. But what does that mean?

The DAO is an acronym for decentralized autonomous organization . Just as the Bisq exchange is decentralized and censorship-resistant, so is its governance mode. The Bisq DAO is one of the tools that achieves this.The Bisq DAO aims to create a self-contained economy where governance is guided by software but ultimately determined by the collective, subjective judgments of its community.

@pazza83 thanks -- I think content is the lion's share of what we should focus on for now anyway. Press kit, in my opinion, at this point, should be a simple page on the website without too much effort or fancy graphics. Just a way for people writing about Bisq to get what they need quickly and be accurate about whatever they're writing about.

I think what we have so far is enough to make a website pull request (PR), which we can use as a basis for further discussion. I'll make the PR in the next few days.

pazza83 commented 3 years ago

Hi @m52go

No problems. Would you like me to leave there it then and consider it complete?

m52go commented 3 years ago

Yes -- I left the issue open since the larger item isn't yet delivered. We'll continue discussion on the pull request (separate thread).
