Hi everyone,
Thanks to the attendees who were able to make our first IRC meeting
today. I had to run to a meeting at the end so sorry I didn't formally
close out. It was an experience for me for I'm not someone who has used
IRC much, so thanks all for being patient with a newbie as I tried to
guide the discussion. I've logged the meeting in a txt file, but the log
file online is at [1].
I have other things to do today, but I'll send a summary and reflections
will follow in a day or two. If anyone who attended wants to comment to
me offline for that reflection file, please email me.
But I think the consensus of the group was that the discussion was at
least a little productive (it was good simply to have that interaction!)
to do an IRC meeting like that at least once a month where we check in
with each other. I might push for even a more frequent one to focus on a
specific item or group goal/task. I also would like to find
group-related tasks that people would be willing to take a
"coordinating" or leadership role in. More soon.... I personally like
Cameron's email earlier today (LiveDVD process) and suggested strategy,
so I want to follow that thread more in future dialog...
In the meantime, please consider posting any new educational material
via our submission system [2] so it is listed on our inventory page [3].
We've had two new entries -- thanks Ian, Micha! Note that [3] is the
newer, database search system... the one Micha referenced in the IRC
chat was [4] which is the old wiki format that we aren't using anymore.
Perhaps we should delete [4] so it doesn't get used/confused? Not sure.
All for now. More soon.
Cheers and thanks everyone.
Charlie
