can someone please tell me exactly what a technical evangelist is?because i know what an evangelist is and really, i don't see you you can get technical in this sense about it.
ok so i looked it up and apparently this is a real (?) thing... (and i know this because it has a wikipedia page and wikipedia is TOTALLY the most reliable source on the internet.)
so a "technical or technology evangelist is a person who attempts to build a critical mass of support for a given technology in order to establish it as a technical standard in a market that is subject to network effects." basically, they take your lame duck product and hype the shit out of it so everyone that might be able to use it goes out and gets it and uses nothing else because your product is the best thing since sliced bread... which is exactly like a real evangelist except they are selling religion... which when you think about it is just as crappy as your lame duck product.
