(Try to keep things timeboxed and concrete. E.g., can we actually make a yes/no decision in this meeting? If not, discuss on list first.)

Potch's Hacks Wireframes

http://potch.github.io/hax/home.html

  • feedback:
    • category-based navigation
      • (callahad) I would equally enjoy a restricted set of categories -- focus us down to "web platform, firefox, demos / videos..." I don't know, whatever our essential categories are ;)
      • I guess I'm also looking for some sort of way to differentiate between evergreen content and more river-of-news content.
    • larger font on article page
    • stable of pre-set 'themes' for the hero space, based on series/topics/other
    • video content as 1st class citizen on blog- routes to YT or ? to embed or not?

Team Meeting w/o Jason Next Week?

Yep!

Q & A

callahad: What's up with Whistler?

jason: We have a room booked for the whole week; we'll have a few mandatory meetings with Andreas' groups. Let's start thinking about this as a recurring item in our weekly meetings.

Havi: We've got two community members coming (MDN TechSpeakers Pilot folks, etc.) They'll probably be busy, but we want to make sure they hang out with us a bit.

Jason: Right. Need to talk about good/bad presentation techniques, collecting / collating data from conferences, etc. Inviting Sandra from Events as well. We will not do silly team-building exercises.

Anything Else?

  • JSConf EU CFP extended by a month -- you have until end of May to submit!
  • Jason wants to start thinking about 5 year vision for tech + us. "People over-estimate 5 years, under-estimate 1 year."
