<body><div>Thanks, Rob! I think that would be great.<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Would you mind letting us know a range of dates that you think might work well for you? Maybe in the next 3-5 weeks (or thereabouts)? We've typically met on a Saturday, so I think that would be best for people, if that works for you.<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Getting some help from some front-end people would be great, too, if that can work-out.<br></div>

<div>I'd like to suggest hosting this event at my employer's office in River North right off the Brown Line @ Superior (Chicago stop).<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I'm flexible, open to a weeknight or Saturday afternoon.<br></div>
<div><br></div>
<div>We might have some additional engineers available to contribute to frontend / website work and along with the systems and infrastructure automation work.<br></div>

<div> <br></div>
<div> For our next meeting, Meg and I discussed doing some LUG-infra hacking. There are a few areas where people could contribute:<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> 1) Contributing to the website. This would involve understanding how the website is put together, adding meetings, adding meeting presentation files, and making other website improvements. This would be good for people who are okay with web stuff. Our site is built with Hugo (no fancy NPM build pipelines . . . you only need the single Hugo binary) and the git repo.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> 2) Making our infra build-able via Ansible. Some of our earlier work focused on integrating with Rackspace API keys and such, but I'd be okay with more basic playbooks for starters. This would be good for people who want experience with Ansible, Nginx, SSH keys, and deploying our website (however people want to do that).<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> 3) Migrating our mailing list. Right now our list is on GNU Mailman v2, and I'm most interested in moving it to Discourse (note: not Discord), but we could also consider Mailman v3 (hyperkitty).<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> 4) Making other LUG infra improvements - other ideas. What I've discussed above is a starting point (and I think stuff that we need to do / people need to know about), but I'm open to other ideas, too.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> We don't have a date set yet because we wanted to get ideas from people. We're looking in the next 3-5 weeks, though.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> Does this sound good to folks? If so, let us know what types of areas interest you. In terms of involvement, the website stuff (under point 1) is probably simplest, and would require the least involvement. Item 2 (Ansible) has more involvement, but is "chunkable" - you could only take a small chunk. Item 3 (the mailing list stuff) is a bit more of a larger project.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> Thanks, all. Let us know your thoughts.<br></div>
<div> <br></div>
<div> Jim<br></div>
