Hi everyone!
I'm excited to let you know that we're moving our event-planning process to
a discourse forum. I think this will be a big improvement for our planning
process, as it will allow organizers to share knowledge across time and
across events. It will also be useful for working with mentors.
Previously, we've added them to these mailman lists but then spammed them
with organizing emails. In Discourse, you can get notifications for
individual threads.
The instance is kind of sparse right now, but it's here:
http://discourse.openhatch.org/
I'll be adding lots of documentation and structure over the next few weeks.
To continue planning this event, please create accounts on the forum and
leave a comment here with what I should call your chapter:
http://discourse.openhatch.org/t/new-chapter-thread/35 (I'd just go ahead
and make it, but I'm not sure whether you'd prefer "New York City area",
"Northern NJ", "New Brunswick", etc. We can then record the info we've
figured out (the date, location as well as a list of next steps) and can
invite organizers, mentors, alums, etc to join the forum and the
conversation.
Let me know if you get stuck, have any questions, etc.
