- Solidproject.org Update
- App Listing Cleanup
- Reformatting by Kay K to ease cleanup.
- First criteria: the app works when we test it. GH repo activity might be a hint too.
- Can we get recent activity?
- Can we get community feedback / starring / etc? - feedback needs to be up to date (and not static when the website is generated).
- Timbl: Ideally need to get the app listing auto-generated
- "About Solid" page
- Link for Justin's About page doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Tu1DaAzRL-Dm1XEFHglMvQv9Z1ElVQPOcGfAVa-cBS0/edit
- Agreed to update it to clearly explain what Solid actually is (@Kay)
* Events/Blog cleanup
* Ideally get the events page more sectioned off, a bit easier to navigate
* Ideally get videos from solid world (and from other events) embedded into the site
* Host the events invites on the Events page instead of EventBright
* The Jekyll setup is actually running on a bloggish infrastucture
* TMIS could leverage this blog infrastructure
* We could also publish invited blog posts, specifically invited selected community members
* Cross-post blog posts, e.g. Noel's or Marrelle's
* Make sure jobs posting/funding pages are more visible
* Make sure that tags are properly displayed
* @Marrelle has a "How to contribute" guide -> link it from a contribution page on the website: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uWcfeyuAUahsxtjPCUR3_UfdVpbhpQ1692DgWdy44Zs/edit?usp=sharing
* ~~Vincent~~ Marrelle fixed blocker that was keeping us from showing the newsletter at /newsletter/, so now we can reform them
* Jobs
* Make a specific jobs page
* link to it from newsletter
* Provide a link for people to submit job postings

* Test suite
* Introduction of the test suite via a blog post
