I stand by my statements concerning Slashdot, DICE, and Sourceforge.
I had no idea what BIZX LLC was, and the press release DICE provided (linked from my post) gave no information. The travel / tourism information came from BIZX's own website: https://www.bizx.info/
As for the name, I call 'em as I see 'em. ".biz" as a TLD has negative equity so far as I'm aware, and BIZX is hardly an improvement on that. I'd suggest considering something more substantial sounding, specific, and trust inspiring.
I think the imagery you referenced in your post was a little non-sensical. But okay. Looks like you got quite a few likes and comments on that post so gold star for you.
BIZX have an admittedly inhereted credibility gap to bridge with Slashdot and Sourceforge. That's going to require both openness and getting well out in front of the message.
Why a principally tourism-oriented website management firm now has an interest in these two specific, storied, and as noted, tainted properties has some 'splainin' to do. The name doesn't much help. It's not awful, but it's definitely not great. There's little on the principles (I've found ... Rodger, is it? via LinkedIn and Bloomberg), and addressing why they're interested and what you're bringing to the table, and, since this is a business, are hoping to take from it, are valid questions for the community to be asking.
Go back to see what the discussion was at the time Dice picked up Slashdot and Sourceforge:
Among the comments: "Who the hell is going to buy sourceforge at this point? It's not even worth the intellectual property behind the scenes. Maybe someone like cnet who wants another distribution channel for not-quite-malware."
Again: I've had at least 17 years' association with Slashdot, and quite nearly as long with Sourceforge. I'm rather skeptical at this point that any private concern can manage them appropriately. It's an uphill battle.
If your intentions are good, best luck to you. Don't think it'll be easy, and there are many who may well be hoping to see you stumble. I'm not one of them, but I'm highly dubious of success.
Thanks for the well wishes. We're not primarily a tourism-oriented website management firm. In fact over 90% of our sites are technology related. Maybe you didn't read the press release.
