An unofficial list of IMC-Ithaca stuff that needs doing. Note that for some of these tasks, we'll have to approve what you come up with at a meeting - ie not all have been concensed upon.

-- BrianSzymanski - 12 Nov 2002

Features:

• Housecleaning (I'd do it but I'm biased
• (from Eric) There is an important story available for anyone who wants to write one. Widewaters law suit is still alive. Fundraising is going on. Contacts: Dan Klein David Werrier Bil Carini, plaintifs Betsy Root John Humphres and Sue Seeley. Aparently Widewaters secretly paid off the fourth plaintiff who convinced the other three to drop the suit. They have again signed on. The story must be deeper. I know two of the plaintifs. They are impeccable.
• Mental health?
  • CU's mental health treatment is FUCKed up.
  • Ithaca's isn't all that much better....
• Sierra Club event on list, nov. 11th:

  Subject

• Mayor Cohen's purported Ethics Violations
• Writeups of any of the articles we got interviews from at ProgressiveFest^?. I can put these up online in mp3/ogg format or burn CD's for people so they can writeup stories. The interviews:

find these files in .ogg format at http://wuhjuhbuh.afraid.org/ski/oggs/ note: these files are super-compressed, and don't sound great, so you won't be using these actual files, even in link form if you upload a story to the server - we have the actual raw audio on the server.

Administrative Bullshit, etc.:

• Lists front page needs to be created as concensed upon back in Oct. (although we have the new lists, and that's good)
• About, Contact, Search, and FAQs links on front page still broken
• (from Arc) Getting a new primary server up.
• (from Arc) Getting a new IMC space
• Tech-WG mission statement & approval
• Features-WG mission statement & approval & action
