Guys, Just my 2 cents on it.
I think Ruby Australia can be a bitt different from others (in a better way). Not sure if that's possible, but we need something new. Most of the discussions are around "what to use" to basically run a CMS-kind-of site. Shouldn't the question be "how do we engage community" or similar? Maybe we could ask what can we do differently and better? Just throwing out some wild thoughts (maybe stupid, but well...) from top of my head. Maybe we could provide live online coding sessions during talks? Live conferencing by default? Challenging each other during talks defeating the point? CMS - NO - just write a blog post that is ONLY poor code? Add your wildest things here and I'm sure couple great ideas will pop up. The site probably should be just a tool to engage community. Making it FUN (that's what Ruby is all about, right). Maybe it's worth to step back and look from the sky high onto this? It involves a lot of effort and I'm not sure if it's doable. Neither I have any experience in that area. But I'm just sayin' :) Cheers, Dmytrii On 10/01/2012, at 12:40 PM, Gordon Yeong wrote: > about the meetup proposal, it's got a lot of functionalities at a cost but if > we want a solution for calendaring (whereby our smart phones can just > subscribe to meetings), I think that google calendar would be sufficient. > The moderators/organisers could look at the list of who's rsvp-ed at a point > in time and work out venue requirements. > > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rails-oceania?hl=en. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
