gregorlove++ for wikifying etherpads from IWC Berlin2!
#
Loqi
gregorlove has 30 karma in this channel over the last year (60 in all channels)
#
[tantek]
!tell gRegorLove could you attempt to merge the Organizers meetup etherpad https://etherpad.indieweb.org/berlin2organizer into the Berlin2 Organizers wiki page also? https://indieweb.org/2019/Berlin2/Organizers
#
Loqi
Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
#
[tantek]
We are so close to December!
#
[tantek]
What is indieweb challenge?
#
Loqi
The IndieWeb Challenge is to collectively ship something IndieWeb-related that benefits the community, people in addition to yourself, every day of December! https://indieweb.org/IndieWeb_Challenge

I feel that the Indieweb challenge excludes those of us who cannot build things for others. I’m not saying I could even do something for myself every day, although I could try. But I know I couldn’t even try if it has to benefit others.

jeremycherfas: i've been thinking about that a bit as well. i like the idea that it is a communal project to have at least one person accomplish something each day, but perhaps could be worded more inclusively.
#
[schmarty]
for example, writing about your own practices, goals, struggles on the web should count in my mind.
#
[jeremycherfas]
I suppose collectively makes me a participant whatever I do. And maybe improving my own site might make it easier for others to get value from it.
#
[tantek]
[jeremycherfas] I have lots of non-builder thoughts on contributions that can and do benefit others
#
[tantek]
Can follow up once back in my home timezone
#
[tantek]
For a hint, comb thru last year’s challenge as there are quite a few non-dev accomplishments that were highlighted
#
[jeremycherfas]
A brainstorming section on that page would be interesting.
#
[tantek]
[jeremycherfas] we also had to be direct about actually shipping something and not just hand wavy blog posts that don’t actually help anyone
#
[tantek]
GWG it would be great to get at least the day 1 Berlin2 videos uploaded for each of the keynotes, and one for the intros / demos too
#
GWG_
The video is in my bag, I will see what I can do. I may be a bit jetlagged.
#
GWG_
My intention is to get it all up eventually
#
[tantek]
Kinda curious if anyone remote participated and or saw any sessions live?
[LewisCowles] joined the channel
#
GWG_
Not that I know of
#
GWG_
I didn't see anyone on the screen.
#
GWG_
But when the HDMI was disconnected, it wouldn't have allowed remotes to be noticed
#
[Rose]
I think those little boxes need a separate screen. Maybe some tiny 4" or 5" touchscreens would work?
#
[Rose]
I plan on sticking with my iPad setup.
#
GWG_
[Rose]: I have a 3 inch
#
GWG_
[Rose]: That's fine

I tried but didn't find the right rooms right away or my schedule didn't join, one thing we might want to do is put the link to the video room in the etherpads as well, and we should note which is the main feed for intros and demos. Is it always the red room?
#
GWG_
Usually yes
#
[jgmac1106]
okay I have to go now, but want to make that more evident on session grids, will add to plannign brainstorming,
#
GWG_
[jgmac1106]: I volunteered to help organize SF, so will test
#
GWG_
I need to brainstorm a few ideas for SF
#
GWG_
So, at Berlin, I tested an HDMI recorder to record demos and intros
#
GWG_
But I didn't think about audio
#
GWG_
I checked and the device has an audio input
#
GWG_
I should have wired a microphone into it
#
Loqi
yea!
#
GWG_
I also need to figure out what to do regarding quality settings for encoding
#
aaronpk
Cool what recorder?
#
GWG_
aaronpk: Asin B01MYWBG1I
#
GWG_
aaronpk: I will get this right eventually
#
aaronpk
Wow cheap
#
aaronpk
did it work?
#
GWG_
We'll see
#
aaronpk
my sorry with the ones with no screen is you can't tell if it's actually recording
#
GWG_
It worked in testing
#
GWG_
I didn't look at the stuff from Berlin yet
#
GWG_
aaronpk: It has a light
#
aaronpk
I tried an avermedia one and it was horrible. The light indicators were not obvious about whether it was recording or what
#
GWG_
I also aimed the camcorder at the screen
#
GWG_
I think I need to do some more prep
#
GWG_
How do I simulate an IWC at home
#
GWG_
My sleep tracker just got to me about my request to export I made in 2017
#
GWG_
Sorry, thought I switched to dev
#
GWG_
Either way, with IWC production, there are some challenges with the Android boxes.
#
aaronpk
can you write up your notes about how it went on the wiki?
#
GWG_
I intend to after I see the footage
#
GWG_
Might do it on my site
#
aaronpk
sure, then just add a link there

gRegorLove: [tantek] left you a message 5 hours, 28 minutes ago: could you attempt to merge the Organizers meetup etherpad https://etherpad.indieweb.org/berlin2organizer into the Berlin2 Organizers wiki page also? https://indieweb.org/2019/Berlin2/Organizers

aaronpk: I will assemble the perfect kit eventually

Berlin2 sessions are archived now; there's a commented out {{videoduration}} template whenever videos get uploaded
#
GWG_
We lost some stuff due a technical snafu I am working on addressing for SF even if I need to bring a 3.5 inch hdmi monitor.
#
gRegorLove
on the individual session pages, that is. {{iwc-session-links}} in the schedule grid.
