+ | * Web interface | ||
+ | * Easier for multiple people to edit | ||
+ | * Our on-going issue is finding people to find the time to help. | ||
+ | * 2014-03: Andrew's proposal: | ||
+ | * First, redesign static content of existing site(s) | ||
+ | * LUG first, then UUG page | ||
+ | * Using Bootstrap CSS framework (helps with mobile) | ||
+ | * Second, use Monstra (static site builder with no DB required) | ||
+ | * 2014-03: Steering committee decided to go with Andrew's proposal for now. | ||
+ | * Keeps our current hosting. | ||
