[EdLUG] Meeting Roundup

Edinburgh Linux Users Group edlug at lists.edlug.org.uk
Wed Nov 14 16:04:36 UTC 2018


Jan

I've been wanting to find a way forward with this. Having one person
saddled with the responsibility is a bit much, a core group could be ideal.

In the meantime, I am open to taking this on ; I think we
cross-communicated a couple of times (problems on my end perhaps) I was
waiting for you to confirm things. Anyhow. Let's reset to zero.



I'd be up for meeting to go over this and taking over any online assets you
want to share/handover,

(open invite) --> and discuss with anybody how to further progress our
online presence whilst simultaneously reducing the maintenance requirements.
