[OH-Dev] summary of IRC meeting re: mailing lists

[Shauna Gordon-McKeon]

Asheesh, Britta and myself met today to talk about our mailing lists and
our mailing list page and how to make them better.

Here's the to do list we came up with:

1)  Using http://jeweledplatypus.org/listinfo.html as a guide, Shauna will
re-organize the lists and create a mailing lists page as a new view in the
oh-mainline repo.

2)  Asheesh directs http://lists.openhatch.org/mailman/listinfo to show
said page.

3)  Asheesh and Shauna pair-program a test that makes sure mailman and the
website as shown are in sync.  Jenkins will run this test daily.

Tasks that can happen in parallel to the above include:

A)  The creation of a new list, tentatively titled events-announce@, for
volunteers to learn about upcoming events (OSCTC events, in person
sprints/project nights, IRC meetups such as setup sprints).  Shauna will do
this within the next few days.

B)  Updating individual list pages to accurately summarize what said lists
are for.  Shauna will do this... eventually.

C)  Updating the docs to include info on who can administer lists.
 Currently unclaimed task.

D)  Britta has made a number of good suggestions about where to promote our
lists, and will hopefully carry them out or leave issues for others to
carry them out.  Feel free to help her/us brainstorm.

Feedback/thoughts/offers of help as always are welcome.
