Wordpress theme renewal

Firefishy moved the repo. Maybe Harry will get around to doing a more extensive renewal:

  • Theme renewal might solve some of the common issues
  • Look at more recent themes
  • Harry to have a look at it

Wiki

Pete connected Andres to Harry for notathon wiki structure discussion

Stickers

Amanda brought several piles of  stickers to SotM in Florence and basically all were given away. There  was a miscommunication with SotM and I didn’t bring the SotM stickers (I  thought Christine would). But someone on sotm team was able to quickly  order some replacements locally.

[Dorothea] Distributed pins and stickers at SotM (not paid by OSMF) https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/Doro8ea/diary/399755 Prepared community sticker packs which were taken by people who will distribute them to mappers at these countries: Cambodia, Brazil, Guinea, Ecuador, Indonesia, Malawi, Hungary, Ethiopia, Italy, Zimbabwe, D.R.C

Social media

Instagram: OSM Instagram  posting is continuing as normal. Berrely has helped once. Amanda has asked someone else if they want to help too.

  • Pete follow up with Berrely on SM account access

Change to CWG meeting schedule?

Can we possibly shift the CWG meeting one hour earlier/later? (To fix Harry's school pick-up clash)

  • To follow up on email - Marjan to follow up...
  • 1 hr earlier better for Marjan
  • 1 hr earlier and later better for Harry
