Hello!

This is the first ever LeafLabs newsletter. We’re going to take the opportunity to sully this historical first with logistics, outlining exactly what we hope these emails will accomplish and what infrastructures we currently have established to help maintain a thriving community.

The Newsletter

In the future we hope this newsletter will contain exciting monthly updates from the actual Leaf Labs– news regarding product releases, software updates, new features on the website etc. We hope also that this newsletter will be a place to highlight cool projects with Leaf boards, developed both in house and by users.

The Infastructure

We begin our tour at the newly launched website, leaflabs.com. You may notice it looks a little sparse, but we’re excited about integrating more features as development progresses. You may want to register on our website; currently registering allows you to sign up for our mailing lists and little else, but in the near future you will be able to preorder boards, participate in forums, sign up to be a beta tester, post projects and a variety of web associated activities. LeafLabs also has a twitter (@leaflabs) and a blog (blogs.leaflabs.com) Finally, if you want to chat about all things Leaf (oh and we know you do), come check out our IRC channel, #leafblowers on irc.freenode.net.

Maple Release

The major update for this incarnation of the Leaf newsletter is the upcoming release of Maple! On October 15th you will be able to pre-order your boards on our website, and on Halloween they will be available via our website and in the future, distributers like Sparkfun.com. Get excited, we know we are.

So concludes your first official correspondence from LeafLabs. Was it as good for you as it was for us?

Until next time,

The LeafLabs Team

As an astute reader may have noticed, the pre-release date for Maple is today!! Order your very own maple here. If you’d like to be added to the newsletter, send us a line at info (at) leaflabs (dot) com or make a request via comments.
