Wiki/Report of Meeting 2022-04-21

Report on the J wiki meeting of April 21, 2022

Present: Art Anger, Devon McCormick, Raul Miller, Henry Rich, Bob Therriault

1. A discussion of the J playground and the progress that it is making. Wondering about the value of creating a video that outlines a good process for users to provide feedback in the process.
2. A discussion about videos and how they can be used to provide instruction in the different duties that will be needed in developing the wiki. More structure to the process is a good idea, as was shown in the "50 shades of J" group project that provided a list of chapters that individuals were free to review and indicate when the review was complete. The time between now and June can be used to build some of this infrastructure, so that contributors can feel certain that their efforts are productive and focussed in the right areas. Some of the logical parser extensions in MediaWiki may make this a little bit easer.
3. It would be a good idea to expand the current introductory pages and use these as a navigation system to get into the new wiki.
