A little embarrassing

[Michael Zaporozhets]

So after doing a little bit of snooping around looking for an active node.js/js community I came across the following

http://www.nodejs.org.au/

Does anyone know what is up with that and who is in charge of it? just feels like a poor representation.

Also Ohhai i'm new :)

Hey Michael,

Rod Vagg created that based on this code: https://github.com/polyhack/nodejsau .

I agree that it looks like an engineer's website but it's a great first step. As with anything in the open source world, if you want to improve something, start writing code. :) I'm sure Rod would be receptive to helpful ideas.

Come into #polyhack on freenode to discuss it, if you like.

Cheers,

Nicholas

Hi Michael, welcome. If you're referring to the fact that it's down right now, blame Nodejitsu, it's been perfectly find until today! Back up and running now. If you object to anything on there then feel free to have a hack at https://github.com/polyhack/nodejsau

Also, join us in #polyhack on Freenode if you want to chat to active Australian Noders!
Cheers

hahaha yep it was because it was down, *shakes fists at nodejitsu*

[Nicholas Faiz]

O, so it's not an "engineer's website" thing? *ducks*

[Tim Oxley]

hahahah. Hm, we should think about adding more info… for example upcoming events, meetup groups, jobs wanted/available, etc.

[Andrey Sidorov]

This is actually a very good idea! jobs.nodejs.org is mostly about
Silicon Valley

[Nicholas Faiz]

Agreed.
