Notes from the meeting are posted. We decided to outline job descriptions for two positions - technical/administrative and community developer. We will devote a chunk of the next steering committee meeting (TH, Dec 14) to evaluating the draft job descriptions. Notes and rough outlines for the job descriptions are posted here: http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare:Hiring Please help tune them up before the SC meeting on the 14th.

I will be making icons for each of these (similar to Google Products). Jenny -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I've updated my previous notes with the current implementation: http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare:Software/Subwikis Subwikis share almost everything with the main site (so take no extra maintenance) but can have their own settings to override. I've implemented almost single sign on using OWW login. See the demo site at: http://test.private.openwetware.org/ This site is set up to be public in the sense that any one with an OWW username can log in (The user on the test wiki is created after the first log in). Here's a demo of a private site you can't access unless you're me http://austin.private.openwetware.org/ -- Austin Che (617)253-5899 From jasonk at MIT.EDU Mon Dec 11 13:46:57 2006 From: jasonk at MIT.EDU (Jason Kelly) Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2006 13:46:57 -0500 Subject: [OWW-SC] SC Meeting Thursday @ Noon in 32-262 Message-ID: <7c085c480612111046n368092dq1191b95d3cb5e915@mail.gmail.com> Hi SC, Just a reminder that the Steering Committee meeting this Thursday, December 14, at Noon in 32-262 (Stata Center).

Message-ID: <7c085c480612141412x2de0e21fvd4bcc55850183e7e@mail.gmail.com> Hi SC, For those of you who missed the meeting today, I posted my notes, though I think think they lack Jenny's usual pizazz: http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare:Steering_committee/Meeting_-_December_2006 Also, posted the action items for this month: http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare:Steering_committee_actions feel free to plug in anywhere you can - if anyone knows someone who would be good for our open positions please suggest them. Also, contribute to the job description discussion / text here: http://openwetware.org/wiki/OpenWetWare:Hiring We hope to distribute the job descriptions before the holidays. Lastly, make sure you're signed up for the discuss at openwetware.org list. I think we should transition to that list for any discussions that aren't strictly SC business (whatever that is ;), in order to encourage a wider circle for general OWW discussions.
