SDNers are sometimes frustrated about the different levels of expertise that SDN Weblogs are addressing. Especially that you can't deduct from the overview whether a post is targeted for SAP beginners or not. Let's not forget, that we all have been beginners once. Categorization of weblogs suggested a categorization into: Beginner, Intermediate and Expert.
Now we could have put a request on our long feature wish list and over time sooner or probably later we would have gotten the request developed.
Today we thought of a simple, may be not optimal solution. We added Beginner to the Topics List. Now when you create a post that is geared toward SAP beginners you can easily tag it as such by selecting the Beginner topic. That way it shows up next to every post and in the overview too, like with this one that you are reading right now: Posted on Feb. 15, 2006 07:29 PM in SAP Developer Network, Beginner
You can even update your old posts, just don't switch them back into draft mode. If you put your post back to final it will have the current date and time and will be on top of the most recent Weblogs page, which you don't want.
Curious if this works out.
Bonus link: Others are laying off developers, SAP is hiring. Next Tuesday February 21 from 4:00 to 8:00pm SAP Labs US (Palo Alto) will be hosting Career Momentum, a career and recruiting event for software industry professionals.
SAP and its ecosystem partners are hiring for hundreds of positions in Silicon Valley and worldwide.
Unfortunately currently no open positions for SDN community support people 😞
It is great to see that the demand in the ecosystem is such that a whole event is set up.
