notes for first meeting
== Meeting Notes ==

September 8, 2016

* Introductions
* Organization
** Joshua will continue to act as Chair and call meetings
** Will continue to use Google Hangouts for live meetings
** But we will not have regular meetings. Instead...
*** We will use Github to track issues: https://github.com/code4lib/2017.code4lib.org/issues
*** Use Slack for discussions: https://code4lib.slack.com/messages/conference-website/
* Tech stack
** We will use the same code as last year, and just change the data
** Luke gave an overview of the stack, which made use of Jekyll for static site generation and a script to convert Google Forms data.
* Timeline
** Short notice gives us less time than last year, but we are not starting from scratch so it evens out
** No details on conference date or venue yet, which actually gives us some breathing room
** Last year's team got the site up fairly quickly thanks to divide and conquer approach to site pages
* Primary tasks
** Luke will take the first ticket of stripping out the 2016 details from the repo
*** Will also set up stub pages so we don't have to "evolve" pages like last year
** Eric will tackle upgrading the site to Jekyll 3.2
** Joshua will contact Shaun about handling DNS
** Joshua will contact members from last years team about handling precon (C. Harlow) and presentation (D. Lacey) data
* Other notes
** We will use the same CSS and color pallette as last year for now. Will swap out background image.
