# [Paul_Robert_Ll] Thanks tantek++. Copy/paste in the textarea has been behaving funny for me, unsure if Safari (likely, been very buggy lately) or MediaWiki.
# [Paul_Robert_Ll] Ooh, this error is all me 😂

# [Paul_Robert_Ll] ☝ Trying something. Turns out you can’t use `style` element in Templates, so need to use CSS in `custom.css`. Looks like we don’t have the deprecated `.floatleft` / `.floatright` classes is `custom.css` or the Vector 2010 theme. Investigating what can be used…

# [Paul_Robert_Ll] [tantek] ☝ Added some thoughts on adding styles to custom.css that would make the infoboxes mobile friendly. There’s not a way of adding styles to MediaWiki templates (not without adding a MediaWiki extension). Open to other ideas on how to make, manage and maintain stylistic changes like this, but it seems that inline styles, in case like this, can no longer cut it!

gRegor [Paul_Robert_Ll], does /2024/Brighton or the venue have a health and safety policy? Would be good to promote that on the event and ticketing pages

# [Paul_Robert_Ll] Let me know if you think anything more could/shuold be added to this policy gRegor
# 
[tantek] Does the venue have windows that open and do the organizers plan to keep the windows open and/or have a fan to help with fresh air flow? Perhaps note if so in https://indieweb.org/2024/Brighton#Venue

# [Paul_Robert_Ll] I removed RSV as that’s not a known or well-used term here, I don’t think. But I guess relevant to international audience.
# Loqi Generated a new draft of the newsletter! https://indieweb.org/this-week/2024-02-09.html
# [Paul_Robert_Ll] I looked it up and still not much clearer!
# 
[aciccarello] I've heard about RSV mostly in the context of kids getting sick though adults can get it too.

# gRegor Yeah, opportunistic RSV infections have increased after covid infections. CDC recommended an RSV vax for first time last year, for adults 60+. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/wr/mm7240a2.htm
# [tantek] [Paul_Robert_Ll] looks like it was written about by BBC for the UK: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-63079378
# [tantek] and yes it is very much part of the triple surge in Europe: https://www.ft.com/content/449c4748-ef63-4f0a-b26e-4e528889fac4
# gRegor For the second paragraph, I'd recommend something more like "In the 4-5 days before IndieWebCamp, try to avoid any situations that may risk exposure to contagious diseases and wear a high quality mask (N95, KN95, or similar rating) if you must enter such a setting (e.g. hospital, pharmacy, or public transit)."
# [tantek] https://indieweb.org/2023/SD#Health_and_Safety_Rules in particular
# [tantek] Though the datapoints are small and there were many different variables/conditions, I will note that we had zero cases of transmission at 2023 IWC SD, and 1 possible case of transmission during 2023 IWC NUR. Both are documented on their respective pages. In both events however we had at least one person that likely caught Covid before the event and was contagious during at least part of the event.

# [Paul_Robert_Ll] Added mask rating
# [aciccarello] Is tracking temporary site outages on the wiki worthwhile? I just noticed that the /Slack page has some outages in the "See also" section and I'm not sure why we care. I doubt it's an accurate reflection of reliability.

# Loqi outage also known as down as in the opposite of "up" in the context of the indieweb, and refers to an interruption to a service or server, when it is not responding as it should, which could mean its DNS is not resolving, or the server is not responding, or it is responding with a particular error such as a 502 Bad Gateway https://indieweb.org/outage
# [aciccarello] K, then I'll try to move those to it's own heading on the page.
# [tantek] there we go: https://indieweb.org/Slack#Downtime
