Hi all,

I proposed a meeting of the web team to discuss our future work at the
conference in July, which has now been included on the agenda. If anyone
has any specific items they'd like to see on the agenda, please let me
know so I can work it all out. It'd also be good to know who's likely to
be there :-)

Cheers, Dave.

I'd heard a rumour :-). Anything specific you'd like us to discuss?

Yes:

- I'd like to have a *written* policy about the news and event items.
When someone wants to step up the plate with us, we should be able to
point that guy about our policies.
 
- In fact, I'd like to document all of the things. Quotes, Books, etc.

- I'd like to drink beer after the meeting.

- I'd like to see the captcha for the comment (and possibly also for
news and event) submissions

- I'd like to discuss the status of the servers and whether we need
additional support from community.

That's what I have in my mind now.

Yup

Not sure what you'd document on those...

> - I'd like to drink beer after the meeting.

Definitely.

Well, that was implemented and demonstrated very recently by Travis,
based on Geviks work. There were accessibilty problems which were
discussed and iirc, it seems like more hassle to implement an accessible
captcha system than to just delete the few spam comments we get each
day.

OK.

> That's what I have in my mind now.

Thanks - I'll compile an agenda based on this and any other comments we
get.

Cheers, Dave.

Per IM discussion, this of course means that Devrim just volounteered to
write a proposal ;-)

Might want to talk about what we can do about the spam submissions in
general, perhaps, rather than focusing on just that.

Where did the bugtracker discussion go?! ;-)

Do we want this to be specificallyi website, or "server systems in
general". If it's servers in general, I propose adding something about
settnig up a more common structure of how to maintain the machines -
different machines are handled in different ways now in too many ways,
imho.

If just web, well. Perhaps something about enhancing the download
system, and the future of the bittorrent stuff.

Depends how much time we have I guess - can you give us a clue Josh?

Yeah, I'd thought about the former.

You know, I might want to argue against the idea of having written policies. 
We don't have written policies for any other part of this project (the whole 
project I mean, not just www), but instead kind of feel our way through 
things.  (Hmm.. suddenly I have the notion to stab my hand with a fork). 
Well, I guess the only point is that I hate to get bogged down in rules and 
regulations on things, so if we keep them in the spirit of general guidelines 
that the web community can change or ignore at any time it might be ok.

So there will be no beer *at* the meeting?  Hmm...

I have a desire to do "bug capturing", which is a little different.  This 
would be a good thing for the community at large to participate in wrt the 
web team, but really the implementation details have never really been the 
problem in this discussion.

I have a todo list of a bunch of different things but no time to work on, I 
guess if we need to fill up things I can break out with some of those items. 
(An example?  What ever happened to setting up the doxygen stuff?)

Its on my TODO list ... I'm moving postgresql.org to the new 64bit server 
the night of the 29th, and will be doing the doxygen stuff shortly 
afterwards ...
