[kylewm]
is there a thing about the TSA now where we have to get to the airport super early?
#
[kylewm]
have heard vague complaints
#
GWG
kylewm, in Chicago,yew
#
GWG
San Francisco has no TSA
#
GWG
So I suppose I should ask re which airport
#
bear
SFO definitely has TSA
#
bear
what varies by airport is how many agents are on staff to handle peak demands

#
GWG
bear, they use private contractors at SFO
#
bear
just because the people may be contractors, it's still the TSA rules and red-tape
#
bear
so if the TSA doesn't have enough contractors|employees on staff ... long lines
#
aaronpk
totally depends on the airport and whether you have pre-check
#
aaronpk
pdx is usually pretty quick except at the super peak times
#
aaronpk
course you all probably don't care about that until after sunday
#
aaronpk
nametag generation script is updated!

damn - those are nice... if I pay $5 can I get one ;)

#
aaronpk
huh. i blame tito
#
aaronpk
it said i have to write the email in markdown. it didn't say it was going to send the markdown as the text/plain part of the email
#
aaronpk
the preview only showed it to me as html
#
tantek
well if markdown adhered to its principles it would work *just fine* as the text/plain part
#
tantek
this is why we have to replace markdown
#
aaronpk
well I did put a <br> in the markdown
#
aaronpk
but only because when i had just a newline, it put it on the same line above
#
aaronpk
did not know about the doublespace thing
#
tantek
double linebreak?
#
aaronpk
no, " " at the end of the line creates a single linebreak instead of paragraph break
#
tantek
wow that's like real obvious and memorable. not.
#
tantek
as if it's hard to translate linebreak to br, and double linebreak to p (or at least double br)
#
aaronpk
wait does that mean my hyperlinks came through in markdown format too?
#
tantek
this just gets better and better
#
aaronpk
cause i would have written those differently for a plaintext part
#
tantek
is abstracting aaronpk's email into the wiki
#
tantek
every time you say "would have written those differently for a plaintext part" for markdown text, then markdown has failed
#
colintedford
The linebreak thing is great if you like to hard-wrap your text files
#
colintedford
(which I don't)
#
tantek
that's a decent point
#
colintedford
One of the intentions in markdown is to be able to do that without messing up the output
#
tantek
will think about that
#
aaronpk
it's definitely a trade-off
#
colintedford
Personally I'd prefer linebreak=br but I guess it's a matter of taste
#
tantek
would compromise with treating single line-breaks after 70 chars as hard-wrapping for text files. line-break before 70 chars would be treated as meaningful
#
colintedford
& doesn't come up often for me

#
ben_thatmustbeme
my email is on my contact page (not linked anywhere)
#

possibly an ephemerality use-case, publish your email for only 24 hours as part of your h-card in your RSVP so that event page can get it

you could webmention their receipt

#

aaronpk: automtically put those onto the wiki
#
Jeena
I'm not sure they can hear you bear
#

can they even hear remote folks?
#

aaronpk: as the tickets come in
#
[shaners]
we can’t hear any remote audio
#

But if you type it...
#
GWG
Someone will say it
#
bear
if project page info is important then the registration should link to their wiki pages
#
tantek
aaronpk: and then people can edit the wiki to update it
#
bear
so someone's registration for an event should become the central location for webmentinos, info, etc for that person

perhaps for AV let's add that as Best Practices

On the last HWC I was asked if I do something to get those who work together with me and are from India to get them to come to a HWC. The idea the woman had was that when they get hoocked in Sweden and then go back to India (because they're mostly working for 6 months) they would initiate it there, like I was in Portland last year and started the HWC in Sweden.

I've got a list of web-centric groups in LA including various WordPress, Drupal, Linux, php, and related meet up groups that might help the LA camp get to 100, but it'll take some pushing to get it to happen. I will say that there is a segment of very pro-community people here in "Silicon Beach" we ought to be able to tap into.

[chrisaldrich]: I may try to come out. We could try some WordPress work.
#

new to indieweb tutorial/sprint day
#
[chrisaldrich]
WordCamp LA is on July 9-10 at UC Irvine; their schedule is technically closed, but I'm going to try to do something there to help intro the IndieWeb to that group of 250+
#
kylewm
shaners: would could have an explicit, optional tutorial day before or after the two day event
#
kylewm
s/would/we
#
bear
why does this have to be the same conference as IWC
#
Loqi
kylewm meant to say: shaners: we could have an explicit, optional tutorial day before or after the two day event
#
bear
why not have a series of lead-on events
#
[chrisaldrich]
DrupalCamp LA is usually about 400+ in late July/ early August and I'll do a session there as well when it comes around to do some outreach.
#
Jeena
I also liked this install-fest idea
#
bear
before we can seriously entertain this concept then we will need to have some 1/2 tutorials/packages that will allow easy wins
#
[chrisaldrich]
It doesn't seem very IndieWebbish at heart, but the social network effect of having a presence on MeetUp.com may be helpful in both local/global outreach efforts...
#
KevinMarks1
wordcamp outreach is a very good idea
#
KevinMarks1
ooh, that is an idea
#
bear
we don't have an onramp - we are still on the 2 lane dirt road next to the highway
#
KevinMarks1
so many "learn to code" tutorials are 'build your own blog'
#
KevinMarks1
so fork them to be indieweb friendly
#
[chrisaldrich]
A "tutorial" day sounds more inviting and productive than a "sprint" day... Sprint to me has always had a connotation of "you need to have a reasonable level of pre-knowledge to accomplish anything" to me.
#
benwerd
seconding that ^
#
[chrisaldrich]
There are a seeming lot of MOOCs (coursera, edX, et al.) that do intro basic html/php stuff that we might "infect" with IndieWeb principles. The issue is to catch the organizers/teachers at the top to help do the preliminary introductions. I know the Linux Foundation does something like this too...
#
jkphl
^ This is basically what I'm trying to do at the IndieWeb Hack Day in Nuremberg which is part of the openSUSE (Linux) conference ...
#
bear
getting people used to what the blocks are and what their bootstrap options are -- that's the crucial part
#
[chrisaldrich]
Is anyone in the IndieWeb Camp "hiring" students for Google's Summer of Code (this year or next?); that could be an interesting way to not only help bring in new people, but get some useful code into the community.

[chrisaldrich]
Sorry kids; think I'm sorted now

aaronpk: lesson learned: started with just "email aaron" and that had very low results
#
[chrisaldrich]
On the side, I recruit high school students for a university, and in the last few days I've met with a handful of minority parents. Many students have great "content" that they've made/done at the HS level that isn't 8.5x11" to fit into a college application folder, but having it on a blog is a resaonable alternative. Reaching out to high school related groups could be worthwhile....

#
bear
the diversity item has to be paired with some group outreach and pairings
#
tantek
aaronpk: but we didn't have a place to broadcast its availability
#
[chrisaldrich]
There are lots of STEM groups in particular at many high schools and outreach progrrams out of universities that could be touched for this kind of strategy.
#
bear
because this group doesn't have the contacts required to reach those that would benefit
#
tantek
bear - can we separate things we "should" do that we haven't done before, and things we *have* done that have worked?
#
tantek
we're trying to focus on the latter right now
#
[chrisaldrich]
STEM is an acronym for Science, Technology, Engineering and Math education
#
tantek
chrisaldrich - do you know of any examples of reaching out to such STEM groups actually helping with conference participation?
#
bear
the conversation seems to be going in multiple directions and I'm offering my feedback at the disadvantage of everything being delayed

Typically STEM outreach groups are looking for event programming for local groups, and we've actually got some content to offer them. The tangible fact that students could go home with a website that they've built themselves could be awesome. Perhaps we could enlist Jim Groom to offer free hosting, etc.? http://jimgroom.net/about/

Another source close to journalists, is writing programs at universities... some of my publishing related work brings me into those circles... If writing students can use sites as a portfolio as well as their own "distribution" that could be a great locus of growth.

I like the idea of a WP channel, but at present I worry that it'd be a tad too quiet and toward being welcoming, we need to make sure there's a regular presence of people...

[chrisaldrich]
If there are too many empty channels, it could make things look like a ghosttown and more like a dying group rather than a growing one....
#

another benefit of multi-channels is that it becomes easier to catch up reading on those of a particular interest when one has been away

I haven't viewed the homepage in months

[chrisaldrich]
the homepage should be more about sales for the benefit of growth
#
[chrisaldrich]
Wikipedia is also already at massive scale and IndieWeb isn't (yet).
#
bear
the focus of the wiki should be knowledge transfer, not about the tech behind it
#
bear
so hiding everything that isn't the knowledge... +1
#
bear
yes ^^ we always have to view the wiki from the eyes of a new person
#
bear
we can have different portal pages that cater to specialized aspects of the community
#

act on what we have that can be acted on - trying to plan for something that can't be acted on yet is distracting

Hey (self-identified) generation 1.5 people, what do you think of the overall design of 2016.indieweb.org vs the current wiki home page?
#
[chrisaldrich]
t: I think it should sit somewhere between the two, but closer to 2016.indieweb.org
#
aaronpk
the vast majority of the current home page is about events. if we're talking about moving events to events.indieweb.org then all the event stuff on the home page can go there and it would mean much less stuff we're trying to pack in to the home page
#

re: atom.io - I like the smooth modern simplicity; their tag line should be above the photo with the download link just below it. Mostly it does a good job of compatmentalizing what it does and where to jump into the product

it's a bit too sparse, but I like that it has more whitespace than indiewebcamp.com does right now; our current page doesn't draw people in as much as it should. Think: What would Harry and Mary Beercan expect to see when they come to the homepage from the Atlantic or Wired?

I like atom and use it as my primary editor these days. Some people say it crashes but I haven't run into that issue. I bounced between bunch of editors including bbedit, sublime, coda, but keep coming back to atom.

Mostly the homepage should answer: Who we are, What we do, how we can help people with links to news (for recurring visitors), events, and how can we help them.

Perhaps there should be different home/landing pages for each of the generations?

gRegorLove, look forward to seeing you down there and hopefully/probably sharing a ride back :)

Aim the homepage at gen2/3 right now with a denser landing page (what's there now) for the gen1 users?
#
gRegorLove
Salt: Sounds good! Safe travels
#

chrisaldrich definitely thinking of solidly aiming at gen2

Probably main thing for me would be clear text explanations. I appreciate this site http://indiewebify.me

I'm reading IndieWebcamp wiki site to understand how to build in IndieWeb functionality to my site. My two cents would be focus on how-to and go for good typography for readability.
