From experience, it's the best way to do it. Pick a date and time that works for most people and all the required people to do the task, pick a place to do it, and do it. In order to set the server (avcnetnew.bates.edu) to do what we want, we have to know what we want it. Obviously we're not on the same page (nobody is ever all on the same page when you have at least 2 people), and I'd like to get on the same page. Before I go any further, I'd like to ask all the admins if they have some sort of definitive future plans for AVCNET and its servers, and if so to share them. I'll start :) My first idea is to do something that will make us more well known. Way to do it: make a community discussion board that everyone can post to and see easily. Case in point: www.slashdot.org. How to do it: use the same code that /. uses, and change the type of stories to local community-oriented stories. It'd be like reading the paper, writing what you think about a story, and then passing it to the next person AND occasionally being able to rate other's comments (a bigger, badder USENET via http written in HTML?). Thoughts on my thoughts are also welcome. -Jeff SIG: HUP
