I'll be sure to get an Antora update before the next meeting. 14:20:11 #info Evergreen International Online Conference! 14:20:11 The conference went very well! Thanks to alynn26 and Bmagic for their docs-related sessions! 14:20:11 alynn26++ 14:20:11 Bmagic++ 14:20:18 Yes! 14:20:32 alynn26++ I'm ready to tackle ascii 14:20:38 Any comments/thoughts? 14:20:39 Bmagic++ 14:20:50 Your welcome. It was diffently a different experience 14:21:09 jweston, if you ever have any questions let me know. 14:21:17 It was so cool how yours and Bmagics ended up flowing together like a nice big docs block 14:21:23 alynn26 thank you - I definitely will 14:21:48 I think they planned it that way. 14:21:49 dluch++ so true, it's like the two presentations were designed that way 14:22:16 I could see that if mine were first, it might have flowed better? 14:23:18 I think so too. but oh well 14:23:31 Eh, I don't know *shrug* 14:23:39 Next time :-D 14:24:06 Also, I want to thank the planners who did an awesome job in a short time 14:24:08 abneiman++ 14:24:08 outreachcommittee++ 14:24:08 otherconferenceplanners++ 14:24:19 outreach++ 14:24:32 outreach++ 14:25:01 allconferencepresenters++ 14:25:31 #info 3.5/Experimental Catalog documentation 14:25:32 At the last meeting, some people were going to be working on these or contributing them. How are we doing with all of this? 14:25:48 I'm also not sure any of those people are here today, lol 14:26:19 I'm supposed to be reaching out to the other jennifer to help with this so it's now on my July to-do list 14:26:36 jweston: great! 14:26:51 jweston++ 14:26:58 jweston++ 14:27:29 jpringle++ (I don't remember what her nick is!) 14:27:45 Any other old or ongoing business to discuss? 14:28:59 Okay, moving on... 14:29:02 #topic New Business 14:29:15 #info Community YouTube invite from Outreach 14:29:29 At the last Outreach Committee meeting, rhamby wanted to let DIG know that the Evergreen Community's YouTube channel, which now has all the sessions from the conference, is also available if we have--or want to create--any kind of videos related to documentation. Some ideas were showing how new features work, workflows, etc. 14:29:59 Does anyone already have something they'd like to contribute, or an interest in creating something? 14:30:51 There are some great videos out there. Should we send out a call for people to contribute existing stuff? 14:31:08 One thing mentioned, for instance, is sandbergja's video about contributing documentation using Github, which I think lives on her own server 14:31:33 jweston: Yes, I think that'd be great. I can send something out to the docs list, to begin with 14:31:49 I know we are working internally on some things we may be able to contribute, or link into Youtube. 14:31:52 dluch++ 14:32:17 alynn26++ 14:32:19 #action dluch will send a message to the docs list to ask for video documentation contributions to the community YouTube channel 14:32:25 alynn26++ 14:32:46 We will keep this in mind as we work on future documentation projects! 14:33:12 ooh, wouldn't it be cool if we could embed links to videos in the documentation? 14:33:22 Seems especially good if we're working on screenshots or something for new docs, that we also might make a short video about it 14:33:35 jweston: It totally would! 14:33:49 I wonder if we can do that in Antora 14:34:06 * dluch will have to explore 14:34:06 It's doable in AsciiDoc 14:34:59 For the Html version of the doc, not necessary print docs 14:35:05 Would AsciiDoc allow you to embed a video that's still on YouTube and not a separate file? Or just a link? 14:35:39 Antora can embed YouTube https://docs.antora.org/antora/2.3/asciidoc/embed-video/ 14:35:47 Sweet 14:36:14 We could do all kinds of fun things, then. ;-) 14:36:23 https://asciidoctor.org/docs/user-manual/#youtube-and-vimeo-videos 14:36:43 jweston++ 14:36:47 alynn26++ 14:37:02 action = fun times with videos & Antora, lol 14:37:11 :) 14:37:29 Haha, +1 to that! 14:37:41 +1 14:38:11 Is there any other new business we need to discuss? 14:39:07 So, since we are so small in number, what's your preference? Go ahead with collaboration time, or just end early? 14:39:27 end early sounds good today 14:39:55 end early is good for me. 14:40:05 Cool, me too. 14:40:08 Next meeting will be August 6. Same bat time, same bat channel. It will be primarily collaboration time. 14:40:15 dluch++ fearless leader! 14:40:25 Thanks for coming! 14:40:27 dluch++ 14:40:31 Your welcome 14:40:44 #endmeeting
