Awareness is critical for the growth of any ecosystem. DNN has a strong history of awareness – but we need to maintain these efforts to attract new customers, developers, vendors, and other valuable community members. The awareness leadership team is involved with topics such as evangelism, training, onboarding, documentation, and anything related to spreading the word about DNN.

The Awareness Team held its regular meeting this month and made progress on several fronts.
The Awareness Team met on 5 February 2026, to review several website-related topics, focusing on content responsibility, outdated information, and the future direction of key pages.
This meeting took place following internal discussions with the Awareness Team about communication and visibility. It became clear that parts of the community were unsure whether the Awareness Team was still active. While the team has continued its work—primarily focused on maintaining the website—there is now a renewed focus on regular alignment with stakeholders and on publishing meeting summaries to improve transparency and communication
