Minutes: 11 Oct 2007 EdBoard Meeting

["Carol Geyer" <carol.geyer@oasis-open.org>]

Attending: Bob, Don, Amber, Su-Laine, Carol, Scott, JoAnn

1) Decisions
-Remove 'Best practices' and 'Solutions' pages. (DONE)
-Remove 'Other' section in Wiki (DONE)
-Revisit idea of 'Coffee with the pros' at some point in the future
-Keep date stamps in 'Recent content' box 
 
2) Unresolved issues

-Should we use the term 'Knowledgebase' instead of 'Wiki', since it's not
really a wiki? Would that detract from the concept of encouraging people to
contribute?

-Should we remove Book navigation?

-How do we make Forums more useful and less redundant with yahoo list?


3) Action items

AI: Kay should contact user groups to ask them to update their pages. If they
prefer to maintain other pages/sites and don't want to duplicate information,
they should just put a pointer on their dita.xml.org page, so the info doesn't
get stale.

AI: JoAnn will write next <soapbox> article on Indexing

AI: Carol to ask IT to: 
	-fix wiki book pages so unregistered/logged-out people can view them
	-install 'Categories' module
	-add teasers of most recent new pages to homepage
	-In 'Recent content' box, insert space between "new("

AI: Carol to:
	- edit ABOUT THIS SITE page to reflect combined KB and wiki
	- make 'Site Maps' link more prominent
	- remove footer navigation (in favor of site map)

Unassigned AI:
	- Check to see if there is any Drupal module to support discussion
