| - | ===== Web Site SLUUG.ORG Maintenance ===== | ||
| - | * SUMMARY: Our traditional Internet presence is with our main [[http://www.sluug.org/|SLUUG web site]]. | ||
| - | * <code> Agenda item narratives prior to 2018 have been removed. </code> | ||
| - | * | ||
| - | * 2018-01-02 | ||
| - | * 2018-02-06 | ||
| - | * Copyright date on web page footer changed. | ||
| - | * Appearance of the drop down list of Special Interest Groups (SIGs) has been completely cleaned up by removing defunct groups. | ||
| - | * Stan R has been experimenting with altering the SLUUG General Meeting [[http://www.sluug.org/|current design]] with new structure [[http://www.sluug.org/test/|TEST design]]. | ||
| - | * This structure is same as the one Andrew Latham provided for the STL LUG and is now being used for all of our active LUGs. | ||
| - | * Have not yet been able to figure out color scheme coding. | ||
| - | * Setting the right sequence of sections for smart phone display will be important; but, is proving to be quite hard to manipulate. | ||
| - | * Most sections look fine on desktop FireFox browser display; but, some are missing on smart phone display possibly because of considerable errors in HTML. | ||
| - | * 2018-03-05 | ||
| - | * Stan R had wrong meeting date on SLUUG main page (it still showed January date) and failed to update SLUUG February topics on MEETUP page. | ||

| - | * Stan R is updating HTML pages on BOCK. | ||
| - | * Special Interest Group meeting sites SLACC, STLLINUX and Hazelwood have been updated for June. | ||
| - | * General meeting home page is a work in progress. What sponsor do I remove? | ||
| - | * Lee: better question is "what sponsors do I keep?" | ||
| - | * 2018-07-02 | ||
| - | * Somehow the Sponsored Events half of the SLUUG Google Calendar lost permissions and had to be reset. That had caused loss of our abbreviated calendars on all web sites. | ||
| - | * Andrew Latham provided some very constructive criticism on Stan R's effort to develop future replacement main SLUUG [[http://www.sluug.org/test/|test page]]. | ||
| - | * 2018-07-30 for AUGUST | ||

| - | * 2018-12-03 | ||
| - | * QUESTION: Are there any significant problems with the new home page style? | ||
| - | * ANSWER: (Don) I had problem selecting the Wiki from top menu. Menu vanished when I scrolled down below item #6. Menu is white text, transparent over pale blue background. I scrolled all the way to bottom to get another list of links. Dave suggested clicking on the menu head, which opens another page of links. | ||
| - | * 2019-01-02 MINUTES AND CHANGES TO AGENDA LOST IN SERVER ACCIDENT! | ||
| - | * Stan R fixed error that kept website from displaying the ATTENDANCE sheets page. | ||
| - | * QUESTION: Are there any other broken pages? | ||
| - | * 2019-02-04 | ||
| - | * ANSWER: Not that we know of. There's always one more | ||
| - | * Stan is aware that there's a problem with top menu of main page, and it's not likely to be fixed in a long time. | ||

| - | ===== ANNOUNCE Mailing List ===== | ||
| - | * SUMMARY: The ANNOUNCE mailing is a weekly extract of our SLUUG GOOGLE Calendar of Events. | ||
| - | * HISTORY: The subscriber list has been populated from attendance sheets by a nominating subscription process. | ||
| - | * | ||
| - | * 2018-04-30 for MAY | ||
| - | * Stan found himself remiss in nominating attendee email addresses from attendance sheets. | ||
| - | * Procrastination is ugly. Until this weekend, none of email addresses for all of 2017 were nominated to ANNOUNCE and DISCUSS mailing lists. | ||
| - | * Suggest we emphasise self registration at each meeting by way of our [[http://www.sluug.org/mailman/listinfo/ | web resource sign up pages]]. | ||
| - | * Print more cards with sign up procedure to hand out at meetings | ||
| - | * If nobody other than Stan R will build weekly ANNOUNCE mailing, why bother with ANNOUNCE list? | ||
| - | * 2018-06-04 | ||
| - | * At a few meetings in May we pointed new attendees to self registration by way of our [[http://www.sluug.org/mailman/listinfo/ | web resource sign up pages]]. | ||
| - | * With the transition from AMBER to BOCK we switched to using web pages on BOCK where mailing list sign ups are broken. | ||
| - | * Magnanimous Mike Knight provided a DNS procedure with local /etc/host which provided a work-around process. | ||
| - | * Stan R was able to send out the ANNOUNCE mailing using that work-around process. | ||
| - | * Andrew St Clair wrote a script to help massage ANNOUNCE text; but, GOOGLE changed calendar text structure, negating effort. | ||
| - | * Gary M never got together with Stan R to see how ANNOUNCE was assembled and deployed (Outstanding action item since 2017-06). | ||
| - | * 2018-07-02 | ||
| - | * 2018-07-30 for AUGUST | ||
| - | * 2018-08-27 for SEPTEMBER | ||
| - | * 2018-10-01 | ||
| - | * Lee loves it, scans it every time it comes out | ||
| - | * 2018-11-07 | ||
| - | * Stan R failed to provide 1 November SLACC meeting listing with extra expanded editing to stand out in the 29 October mailing. | ||
| - | * Subsequent posting to DISCUSS list used extra expanded editing features. | ||
| - | * 2018-12-03 | ||
| - | * QUESTION: Would someone else (besides Stan R) take on generating the weekly ANNOUNCE mailing? | ||
| - | * NEW IDEA: Per Lee: Send Announce email to Meetup group instead of updating Meetup page every month | ||
| - | * PROPOSAL: scrape info from calendar into weekly ANNOUNCE; send ANNOUNCE to Meetup email address | ||
| - | * 2019-01-02 MINUTES AND CHANGES TO AGENDA LOST IN SERVER ACCIDENT! | ||
| - | * Scraping info from calendar into weekly ANNOUNCE; send ANNOUNCE to Meetup email address | ||
| - | * Would not work because of MEETUP.COM message size limitation. | ||

| - | ===== Handouts ===== | ||
| - | * SUMMARY: We have informational handout PDFs available [[http://www.sluug.org/resources/handouts/]]. | ||
| - | * HISTORY: The PDFs are generated with LibreOffice. The originating files are stored along with generated PDFs. | ||
| - | * <code> Agenda item narratives prior to 2018 have been removed. </code> | ||

| - | * Would be nice to have handouts to leave at ARIN meeting | ||
| - | * Handouts would be excellent test of capabilities of Lee's new printer | ||
| - | * 2018-06-04 | ||
| - | * Does anyone NOT KNOW where to get our handouts, so that they could print and fold them? | ||

| - | * If Lee can find right PDF, can make 20-30 copies | ||
| - | * Lee has new printer | ||
| - | * Stan was volunteered to tell Lee which brochures to print. Stan didn't volunteer. | ||
| - | * 2018-11-07 | ||
| - | * 2018-12-03 | ||
| - | * QUESTION: Would someone else (besides Stan R) take on printing and maintaining an inventory of our brochures? | ||
| - | * ANSWER: Lee will print them if someone will tell him what they want. | ||
| - | * Gary: We still need someone to dictate content of handouts | ||
| - | * 2019-01-02 MINUTES AND CHANGES TO AGENDA LOST IN SERVER ACCIDENT! | ||

| - | * 2018-10-01 | ||
| - | * Gary suggests buying several of the packs @$1 to give out at meetings. | ||
| - | * see unixstickers.com stickermule.com (same site) | ||
| - | * Board ad hoc approved that Gary will purchase some stickers to use as giveaways. | ||
| - | * 2018-11-07 | ||
| - | * 2018-11-07 | ||
| - | * Gary didn't realize that he was volunteered, since he is out of town momentum will likely be slow. | ||
| - | * 2018-12-03 | ||
| - | * QUESTION: Would someone else (besides Gary M) assume the mission? | ||
| - | * ANSWER: Lee can't find source for printing tux key stickers | ||

| - | ===== Summer Workshops ===== | ||
| - | * 2018-06-04 | ||
| - | * Thoughts about announcing workshops for summer meetings instead of actual topics. Prevent having to develop presentations. OTOH, would be helpful to have topics for the workshops, so not zero effort. | ||
| - | * 2018-07-02 | ||
| - | * Stan R posted to DISCUSS mailing list an item with **SUBJECT: Possible SLUUG Summer Workshops**, inviting feedback on the topic. | ||
| - | * 2018-07-30 for AUGUST | ||
| - | * Stan: Being in the middle of summer, seems a little late to try anything, other than gather opinions for next year. | ||
| - | * 2018-08-27 for SEPTEMBER | ||
| - | * Start planning next April for summertime hiatus | ||
| - | * Schedule “workshops” in July & August | ||

| - | * During Xmas break, grad student from Mississippi came to SNUG, SLUUG, & Linux. Gary needs to reach out to him and request the help he offered. Check sign up sheets from meetings. | ||
| - | * Gary expresses concern that we're not getting new members. Need to find ways to connect. Do we need to cut back on presentations or find new people? | ||
| - | * 2018-04-30 for MAY | ||
