# Support for Projects
2+
3+
The OpenJS Foundation provides support to projects as follows:
4+
5+
* Facilitating communication between the larger ecosystem and
6+
projects. This includes:
7+
* Javacript Newsletters and Periodicals
8+
9+
## Communication Javacript Newsletters and Periodicals
10+
11+
There are a number of great newsletters and periodicals. Getting articles
12+
into these newsletters and periodicals is one way that a project can share
13+
key messages and news but they often don't have a good way to do this.
14+
15+
Further complicating things is that developers and those managing newsletters
16+
and periodicals don't use the same set of tools regularly and so finding
17+
a common tool/location that works for both groups may not be easy.
18+
The OpenJS Foundation helps projects get their news to these orgnizations by:
19+
20+
* Providing a [news](https://github.com/openjs-foundation/news) repository
21+
where project contributors can open issues with news items that would
22+
be good to be shared in newsletters and periodicals. The expectation
23+
is the the person who opens the issue will craft the original info
24+
needed by a newletter or periodical that picks it up and will also
25+
be available to answer any questions.
26+
* Providing a mailing list that those who run newsletters and periodicals
27+
can subscribe to.
28+
* Periodically upating the list of organizations that are subscribed to
29+
the mailing list in the repo so that developers know who their news
30+
items are being sent to.
31+
* Generating a weekly summary from the issues in news repo and sending
32+
the summary to the mailing list.
33+
* Reviewing the most active newsletters and periodical's in the
34+
JavaScript ecosystem on a quarterly basis and reaching out to those
35+
who are not subscribed to the mailing list or directly to the repo.
