[20:23]
asad let's do it!
[20:23]
asad first item:
[20:23]
asad site design
[20:23]
asad anyone want to take on that one?
[20:23]
bradley let's center it, at least
[20:23]
bradley i don't know how to make that happen though
[20:24]
asad some browsers it is center...
[20:24]
asad firefox isnt
[20:24]
emily ok, well centering sounds like a good idea
[20:25]
emily none of us can do it though
[20:25]
asad maybe that is a question for #mir ?
[20:25]
emily mtopper can probably do it
[20:25]
emily i dont know if he is actually here though
[20:26]
bradley he will not be around for 8 days
[20:26]
emily oh..
[20:27]
emily ok well anything else we can talk about in regards to site design
[20:27]
asad i am fine with how the site looks now, but i will stand aside
[20:28]
emily i also want to stand aside on this subject
[20:28]
bradley center the site is a fine first step, then we can come back to the issue, i guess
[20:28]
asad ok
[20:28]
emily ok
[20:28]
asad is there anything else on site design? can we consent to move on?
[20:29]
emily i think the three of us can consent...
[20:29]
emily the next topic is tech related as well....
[20:29]
emily maybe we shouldnt bother
[20:29] * asad twinkles
[20:30]
bradley i don't feel very confident on the next topic though
[20:30]
bradley themes of coverage for local IMCs and Indy.us (similar to
http://cmrn.net)
[20:31]
emily do you feel confident on any of the topics?
[20:31]
asad what about "working on collaberation features"
[20:32]
bradley (victoria from austin says hi - were in frsc now)
[20:33]
bradley unless there are other people that want to work on indy.us features.... i'm not comitting to anything
[20:33]
bradley more than i already do
[20:34]
asad what exactly do you want to collaberate on?
[20:34]
bradley i don't want to continue being the person that promotes such a large percentage of the local features to center column....
[20:34]
asad are you talking about making features or promoting?
[20:35]
bradley i'm talking about promoting in those lines before
[20:35]
bradley but, about collaberation, here are some ideas:
[20:35]
bradley http://docs.indymedia.org/view/Local/ImcUsWorkPad
[20:36]
asad ok, i am down to promoting (as well as creating bradley!)
[20:36]
bradley great!
[20:36]
asad just not too much regarding a lot of stuff being features goes on here
[20:36]
asad so i really feel like i am working on an other locations feature
[20:37]
bradley until this IRC room is full of IMCistas from around the country... the case will what you mention, asad
[20:38]
bradley i promoted features from all over, not just santa cruz and indybay
[20:38]
asad of course
[20:38]
bradley people seem to be very thankful too, so you'll get props, which is nice
[20:38]
asad but i am talking more along the lines of "creating"
[20:38]
baku hey y'all. i'm paying attention now
[20:39]
bradley hey baku
[20:39]
emily hi baku
[20:39]
asad as i saw on the workpad, they are talking about student work...
[20:39]
asad no colleges in dallas that are doing anything of the sort
[20:39]
bradley asad, try to make a feature proposal from the student resistance pad
[20:40]
asad i will be more than willing to help grab information from IMCs, but i just dont feel like that is contributing a whole lot, because anyone can do that.
[20:40]
asad but if it is needed
[20:40]
asad i dont have a busy calendar
[20:40]
bradley but it takes someone to do it, YES, it is NEEDED
[20:40]
bradley that is definately contibuting
[20:40]
emily asad do it
[20:41]
asad ok
[20:41]
asad anyone else?
[20:41] <-- ali has quit (Quit: ali)
[20:43]
bradley anything else?
[20:43]
asad can we move on?
[20:43]
asad to...
[20:44]
asad ImcUsOutreach checkin
[20:44]
asad i think...
[20:44]

[20:44]
asad ok
[20:44]
bradley i have not done any direct outreach, sorry
[20:44]
asad north texas wants to be syndicated...
[20:45]
asad but questions arise..
[20:45]
bradley did you print it out for them, the FAQ?
[20:45]
asad will Osailt work on mir?
[20:45]
asad (no bradley, i wasnt able to get out to denton)
[20:45]

[20:46] <-- baku has quit (Quit: CGI:IRC)
[20:47]

[20:47]

[20:48]
bradley i need to sign off for about 10 minutes
[20:48] <-- bradley has quit (Quit: Chatzilla 0.9.68a [Firefox 1.0.4/20050511])
