Next actions / decisions:

  • PS to post minutes
  • PS to create issue for UX conversation next steps
  • All to weigh-in on UX thread in GitHub
  • Decision: No etherpad project for now
  • Decision: Propose/encourage other committees to post their minutes/update to a GitHub repo, or -- at minimum -- to list their committee members and a way to contact that committee because committees want to communicate with other committees.

To be discussed:

  • Next steps / next action
  • Survey data here, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TwBPhjRVXI1HbgQU9L62MSz02YOPDYWhW8pbzyBllkE/edit?usp=sharing
    • Themes:
      • Didn't know there was a website
      • Couln't find the information they were looking for (How to run a chapter, where chapters are active, etc.)
      • Website is really, mainly for organizers (looking for resources, how to run their chapter, getting in touch)
  • Website ideas
    • Make the front page more of an "about the network" page vs. a blog
    • Content is fairly static
  • Purview/Scope of Work:
    • UX
      • What experience are we pushing
    • "Technology"
      • Etherpad!? Is that part of the "Website" per se?
        • What are the requirements?
        • Who's responsible?
        • Samantha: considering the amount of work, maybe migrate to our own Etherpad at some point when we have some time/energy, etc.
        • Decision: Not undertake this for now, but ask people to paste their minutes to GitHub
    • GitHub?
      • Do we assume that organizers would collaborate across GitHub? [Thomas - yes; Misha; Samantha - yes; Burt -; Phillip - yes]
      • Porting existing blog posts over: there's an import tool for Jekyll from Wordpress
    • Who "owns" the site
    • How is it maintained? Who does the security updates?
      • Who do we call?
    • Who is it for/audience:
      • Decision: Organizers, or potential organizers [Samantha, Misha, Thomas, Phillip, Burt]
    • How does it enable collaboration?
      • Communications committee
        • Google Hangouts / Google Docs (not Etherpad)
        • Everyone uses whatever they want / seems easiest
        • Google Group is really the only place we could reach committees consistently
