Loqi "Micropub" call ended https://events.indieweb.org/2026/01/micropub-HoibP09v7PiS
#
GWG [artlung]: I'm curious your observations as the listener.
#
GWG How we move things forward, regardless of what thing it is, has been something we've tried to figure out how to get better at as long as I've been in the community
#
[artlung] I think it was great. You had enough stakeholders pipe in, you recognized items which you needed other stakeholders to chime in on, notes were taken. it was good. And the note made: be proactive about "create an event" is a good one. The worst that can happen is that you don't have a quorum and you try again. So kudos for shepherding! GWG++
#
GWG What is a shepherd?
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "shepherd" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "shepherd is ____", a sentence describing the term)
#
GWG A shepherd is an individual who takes responsibility for ensuring a issue or proposal continues to progress.
#
Loqi ok
#
GWG Need to work on that one
#
[artlung] On movies and games it's a Producer, in tv it's a Showrunner, on a naval ship it's usually the XO (executive officer). Off the top of my head. Basically they're who gets things to move.
#
GWG I meant the definition page to try to iterate on that
#
gRegor what is organizer
#
Loqi Organizers Meetups (and Organizers Summits) are half-day events held before IndieWeb Summits, and often before IndieWebCamps, for anyone who wants to help organize an IndieWebCamp or Homebrew Website Club meetup, and especially for those have organized an IndieWeb event in the past two years https://indieweb.org/organizer
#
GWG gRegor: An organizer is for an event..this is for an issue on a spec
#
GWG Similar to https://chairs.ietf.org/en/documents/document-shepherding
#
GWG I'm downloading/uploading the video
