[Joschi_Kuphal] ↩️ sorry for the laaaaaate reply. but i guess we could have the pub again, if we want. let me know if i should ask …
#
[tantek] [Joschi_Kuphal] [Schepp] I thought that pub was a really good comfy venue and the separate booths worked well for different hackday projects too. It might be good to see if we can explore using the pool room as a second breakout room. I wonder if there is any chance of using the Sipgate meeting rooms again though?
#
[Joschi_Kuphal] [tantek] i'll ask, but it'll take me some time
#
[tantek] We have some time. If we can figure it out in January that would great for announcing and encouraging btconf folks to plan to be there the weekend before

#
[Schepp] ↩️ With meeting rooms, would you mean rooms in sipgate's main building? Where we were a few years back?
#
[tantek] [Schepp] yes Sipgate's main building, like we did in a previous IWC DUS (I forget which year was the most recent)
#
[tantek] hey Photography pop-up friends — please take a look at the various discrete photo (post) related steps at the top of https://indieweb.org/photo and see if that breakdown (not necessarily the order) resonates for you
#
[tantek] especially the distinctions between https://indieweb.org/photo_upload , storage, and hosting

#
[Al_Abut] Photo popup zoom is over! I’m sorry to anyone that missed it - I forgot to put an end time on it and I’ll remember that for next time. And there definitely will be another one, the conversation was overflowing with inspiration!!!
#
aaronpk we ran out of time but I was going to say there were _so many_ more topics covered than I expected and I think we should do this again but for even more narrowly scoped sub-topics!
#
[Al_Abut] [tantek] we definitely did look at the photo wiki page, the table of contents at the top was an excellent conversation icebreaker and it went from there into *all kinds* of interesting directions I didn’t expect.
#
[Al_Abut] Great idea [aaronpk]! While the idea’s fresh in your head, do you have a suggestion for a topic for next time?
#
capjamesg [Al_Abut]++ for hosting!
#
Loqi [Al_Abut] has 9 karma in this channel over the last year (34 in all channels)
#
[Al_Abut] Thank you James! While I’ve got you on the horn, can you hold off on archiving the etherpad until later, like maybe even tomorrow? Jeremy and a few others had some follow up notes they wanted to add.
#
capjamesg Sure thing!
#
capjamesg You can archive it when you are ready by saying !archive <events-page-url> in the #indieweb-meta channel.
#
capjamesg !archive help
#
[tantek] Glad to hear it [Al_Abut]!
#
[tantek] Btw I bet folks would show up to a monthly cadence to this pop-up
#
[tantek] (3rd instance likely counts as a series rather than a popup tho ;)
#
[Al_Abut] I'm so down to make this a monthly thing. Or even quarterly? That would make this one the Winter Edition.
#
[Al_Abut] Because I’m already planning some other monthly ones for movies and books, to match the cadence of the blog posts. Not announced yet because I wanted to see if I botched the hosting of this first guinea pig of an event, haha
#
[tantek] Given the high interest at IWCs, I bet people would show up to monthly. Perhaps rotating hosts/facilitators
#
[Al_Abut] Monthly could work too, I haven’t ruled it out
#
[Al_Abut] I did encourage people to tune into IWCSD next weekend because there will absolutely be a photos session
#
[tantek] So it stays joyful instead of feeling like a responsibility
#
[Al_Abut] Nah, it was super joyful. I was more worried about attendance and too much noise for others, but happy to ramp up to monthly considering how much ground we covered. We didn’t even get to our own websites!
#
[Al_Abut] There was just so much to talk about just from the capture and editing side.

[tantek] Yeah! I can relate!
