I think this is a good overview/brainstorm list of what needs to be in
the site, but I think the IA can be simplified

to me, I really feel like the site architecture should reflect the GA
architecture, that is structure the site around the working groups.
that's the most intuitive way I can envision it, and the most
productive for plugging people in and giving the impression of the
busy-ness of the camp with all of the exciting developments.   as it
appears in the proposal now, committee work seems to be spread across
a few pages each.  I would propose committee pages/categories be the
top priority and then the main page can pull content from those to
give a nice sense of what's happening/needed in the camp.   let the
content be the guide as to that shape the home page takes eventually
-- it will be a living, evolving document over time.   I proposed at
the last meeting I attended on Wed night that we let the committees
appoint a point person to update their own content in order to
distribute the workload and to spread site involvement to a wider
collection of folks, but regardless of what people think of that idea,
we'll probably have to get the site going with content we manually
request from the committees for now (initial skillshares would be
necessary to diffuse the workload once the skeleton and early content
are plugged in)

I think that concept families with the last point made on this thread
about incrementalism.  some of the proposal items I see as like "step
17" on website dev.  the highest priority should be simply getting it
going with current information, how to feed the beast with current and
reliable info and never get this backed up again

integrating upcoming events/actions is obviously another key area, and
pulling that off in an elegant manner will require some discussion

lastly, I'm still open to a work party at my house.  I suggest that
asap we find a time when the largest number of us can meet in person,
bring our laptops, and discuss and bang out a working version of the
site architecture in 3-4 hours.  we can also lay out a timetable for
how/who we plan to implement more supplemental facets of the site like
"how to" guides etc

I'll be at the camp at 4pm to cover the march, and then around for a
bit after that, until whenever I return home to process my latest
media files.  if you don't know me, look for the guy with an Indybay
shirt with two cameras and let's exchange phone numbers since we're
all bouncing back and forth between online at home/work and offline at
the camp

peace,
david
