gRegorLove I have booked a room at University Place for the Sunday night too if you wanted to share for one night, sorry I know that doesn't help much!
#
gRegorLove
No worries

I reserved an Airbnb for a pretty good deal. [eddie] might be coming and we might end up splitting a hotel room.
#
GWG
I am looking forward to seeing Eddie again

Chris Aldrich mentioned it was his #indieweb anniversary today, which made me wonder when I first encountered indieweb. Turns out it was six years ago! (https://gregorlove.com/2019/04/chris-aldrich-mentioned-it-was/)

[tantek]
Zegnat, could you add Jeena's indieweb event to /events ?
#
[tantek]
so we can get it into the newsletter?
#
Zegnat
Jeena has an event?
#
[tantek]
especially if you see something remote like video and can take a screenshot as a photo for the event
#
Zegnat
checks jeena.net
#
[tantek]
Zegnat what you said above at 11:41 PDT
#
Zegnat
Oh, yeah, as I said I didn’t get that to work myself though.
#
Zegnat
If someone actually has a direct link, they are free to add it, but I don’t have anything other than that tweet
#
[tantek]
if you have information *about* the event, time, access, name/topic, can you still add it to /events ?
#
[tantek]
even if it is only virtual
#
Zegnat
I have only that tweet. Which is “we are live” (which didn’t work for me) and the timestamp the tweet went up
#
Zegnat
That seems incredibly vague
#
Zegnat
has another try at figuring out where this was happening and what there is to report on
#
[tantek]
you can ask in their Freenode channel #montrealsauce

Our live stream is broken! @Pauld is continuing the interview, but will fix the streaming server and broadcast the episode later. We'll keep you updated. Sorry @jeena and his friends who were eager to use.

jamietanna|wwwjv: if you want it in the newsletter and on the front page, you need the markup on the HWC pages

jamietanna|wwwjv you did the right thing by documenting clearly on https://indieweb.org/Homebrew_Website_Club#Nottingham - and thank you for the reminder. That helps make sure it gets copy/pasted "on" by default
