# 00:10 GWG [tantek]: I think I got all the dates you ??ed
# 00:18 GWG If we get 1 IWC with enough notice for me to plan to show up, then I'd like to try to come.
# 00:18 GWG To cross an ocean I need more notice
# 00:37 [tantek] how much notice? could you add that into parenthetically after your name for the specific city?
# 00:38 [tantek] ok GWG I'll bump Brighton into 2023, optimistically. I'll try to sync with [Jeremy_Keith] next month and see if it's a possibility
# 00:47 GWG [tantek]: I usually like minimum 4, preferably 8 weeks if we can get it. Less than 4 is hard.
# 00:58 [tantek] yep, worth adding that inline on your entries so organizers can keep it in mind

# 21:30 gRegor yw, [tantek]. I was thinking we could flatten some of section 3 there. Past Cities, New Locations, and Reactivate Past Locations could all be subsections of 3 instead of nested like they are now in the TOC.
# 21:30 gRegor And Potential Cities could be merged with New Locations
# 21:31 gRegor Agree should distinguish locations that have had a camp before vs potential. What other aspects?
# 21:31 [tantek] 1 "recent-ish" locations (i.e. in the 2 years pre-pandemic 😕 )
# 21:33 [tantek] 2 all other past locations that have had an actual IWC with documentation of results (photos, non-trivial like more than 5 people showing up, demos of things they got built)
# 21:33 [tantek] 3 aspirational locations pitched by someone in that location who actively expressed interest in co-organizing
# 21:33 [tantek] 4 aspirational "wish list" locations requested by others like "I'd like to go to an IWC in city X"
# 21:34 [tantek] these all feel very different in terms of chances of success (decreasing ordered clusters)
# 21:34 [tantek] so I feel it's more transparent to clearly communicate those different chances, to better set expectations of folks reading the page
# 21:35 [tantek] also I commented out a bunch of cities because they had like zero interest/comms about them
# 21:35 [tantek] so maybe this restructuring will help surface those in the "4 wish list" section
# 21:36 [tantek] you can also do it incrementally, like first do the first cluster as one edit
# 21:37 [tantek] and for the "wishlist" ones, those should include an explicit list of the people who said they would go to one there
# 21:38 [tantek] if there's any left that don't fit those categories, like of the sort "someone should organize an IWC in this city", then we can delete them. that kind of thing is not helpful to the community
# 21:59 gRegor [tantek], sounds good. Moving anything with an IWC 2018 or after under Restart a Recent City
# 22:01 [tantek] maybe keep the leftovers in a Leftovers section until we figure out what to do with them

# 22:24 gRegor Add the section in one update, move in other updates?
# 22:24 [tantek] I mean that page is not conducive to good Media Wiki diffs
# 22:25 [tantek] ah, I just realized we should separate the virtual ones
# 22:25 gRegor nothing should be deleted. Baltimore and NYC were added, rest should have been copied from elsewhere on the list
# 22:25 [tantek] London is an odd one there. As it was planned IRL but then went virtual
# 22:28 [tantek] let's put London in "3: Cities Looking For A Co-organizer"
# 22:31 gRegor Or are they close enough to popups they could be under one banner?
# 22:31 [tantek] let's collapse both popups and online into a Virtual or Online heading
# 23:19 gRegor I didn't really touch or review the commented out ones. There's probably some info in them that can be merged into the new sections.

# 23:27 gRegor I didn't add ones back like /Bellingham since that seems like a one-off, no organizers currently there or nearby
