jelknerthat's all14:39

jelkneri don't think you understand me14:39
jelknerwe are volunteers14:39
jelknerwe do what we can14:39
scooperGot you14:40
jelknernone of the 5 people in the web team can create a web application with a backend14:40
jelknerremember, we are volunteers14:40
jelknerand learning goals are very important for us14:40
scooperI want to give this project a try JEff14:40
jelknerscooper, that sounds great14:41
jelknerbut please hold off14:41
jelknerlet me explain14:41
jelkneri want:14:41
scooperMaking it like a block post14:41
jelkner1. this be done by Anna, Shallon, Danayit, Daniel, and Ashley14:42
jelkner2. it to cost us nothing but time, at least for now14:42
jelkneras soon as you talk about a web application, it will cost money to host it14:43
jelknerwho will pay the bill for that?14:43
jelknera static website we can put on github pages for now14:43
jelknerand it won't cost us anything14:43
jelkneri would strongly encourage *you*, scooper, to set up development environments in the lab for you experiments with this project14:44
jelknerthen you can have a git repo with the code14:44
jelknerthat others can run on their local servers14:44
jelknerthen we don't need to worry about hosting fees14:44
jelknerdo you understand, scooper?14:46
scooperI m following your instructions Jeff14:46
jelknerno, that's not what i'm asking for14:46
scooperYes I understand14:46
jelkneryou and i are the project managers, but i'm old, and have more experience14:47
jelkneri love your enthusiasm14:47
jelknerwe need that!14:47
jelknerbut you often don't think about the problems that will come up14:47
jelknersince you don't have experience with that yet14:47
jelknerwe want to get to where you are heading14:48
jelknerbut there are many steps along the way14:48
jelknerwe start small14:48
jelknerwith deliverables we can manage14:48
jelknerfor example, my friend14:48
jelkneri haven't seen an email from svaye recently14:48
jelknerwe need that14:49
jelknerand it is your task to remind her to do it ;-)14:49
scooperI did Jeff14:49
scooperI think I need to be present while she is mailing you14:49
jelkneri'm thinking that svaya on your end, and anna litwiller on my end14:50
jelknershould be in the lead14:50
jelknerlet's let them coordinate this14:50
jelknernot us14:50
jelknerwe need to train leaders14:50
jelknernot do all that ourselves14:50
jelknerwe can't create a cooperative without lots of leaders14:51
scooperI give both of them the instruction that was given to me by you Jeff14:51
jelknersweet14:51
jelknerok, then we wait14:51
jelknerdon't move too fast14:51
jelknerit is more important that they be trusted to lead this14:51
jelkneryou and me need to help14:51
jelknernot take control of it14:51
jelknermake sense?14:51
scooperYes Jeff14:52
jelkneri'm hoping that savaye can very excitedly report on this at her summary on saturday14:52
jelknertelling us how she helped lead the team to start getting to know each other14:52
jelknerand to begin setting up the project14:52
jelknerthat's what we need14:53
jelknerok, please enourage svaye to see if she can get Tanaka to join us sometime during our meeting this saturday14:53
jelknerbetween 1 an 3 pm UTC14:53
jelknerwe will schedule everything else around that14:54
scooperI will Jeff14:54
jelknerso i won't post an agenda until we know if he can do it14:54
jelknergreat14:54
jelknernow, regarding your Django dreams, my friend ;-)14:54
jelkneryou and tmickelson should coordinate the learning around that14:55
jelknerin the lab, you could set up a WSGI server14:55
jelknerand tmickelson could do the same here14:55
jelknerso that you both learn to deploy Django14:55
jelkneryou already know it requires two servers14:55
jelkneran HTTPS server, and a WSGI server14:56
jelknergunicorn is the standard WSGI server i think14:56
jelknerbut tmickelson can consult with thehedgeh0g 14:56
jelknerand come up with a plan14:56
scooperI will be so glad if this happen Jeff14:56
jelknerthe combination gnuicorn + nginx is what i've seen most often14:57
jelknerbut thehedgeh0g like caddy14:57
jelknerand caddy is a huge help in that is autorenews ssl certificates14:57
jelknerwhich is a huge pain14:57
jelknerso that is a conversation you 3 need to have14:59
jelknerbell rang14:59
jelknergotta run14:59
