event registration
Timebox: 15 min.
Aaron Parecki Let's talk about improving the event registration process having learned from previous years wiki RSVPs vs ti.to registrations vs indie RSVPs. E.g. datapoints:
- people indie RSVPd but didn't ti.to: https://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2016-06-02#t1464901363292
- people edited the wiki, didn't ti.to or indie RSVP: https://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2016-06-02#t1464906696677
- Noting that there's no mention of ti.to at https://indiewebcamp.com/2016 under RSVP

rename to indieweb
Aaron Parecki (for
Ben Roberts) Rename main IndieWebCamp identity to "IndieWeb" - indiewebcamp.com redirect to indieweb.org, change IRC channel from #indiewebcamp to #indieweb and other related #indieweb-* channels. Maybe keep a separate channel for logs of camps and HWCs so as not to make it difficult for people to read when there is a camp going on (i'm probably going too far with that). All channels being bridged between slack would be nice as well.

Michael Bishop potentially move Loqi notifications regarding wiki edits to -dev or some other internal channel. Also think about testing wiki definitions outside of main channel. I would also suggest thinking about the retweets and other automated messages in the channel intended for newcomers be minimized if possible.

Tasks:
- create a new page with the proposal and details
- encourage +1/0/-1 on the proposal (like we did with the logo)
- goal: flip the switch on 2016-07-04
homepage
Shane Becker #homepage: Outside of the scope of the newskin, I think we can make the homepage better or redesign it altogether.

Aaron Parecki I support this, but it's a dangerous rabbit hole to go down, and likely requires more time than a single session at this event. Maybe we can come up with some goals for what a new homepage should do as an outcome of this discussion.
