Public Lab Wiki documentation

(Google Doc link)

(Stewart and Jeff present)

Public Archive

• Posters!!!

  • edit cycle more efficient, firmer deadlines, much less protracted feedback/edit period
  • new publishers? not returning calls
  • name suggestions? “Grassroots Mapping Forum”, “Grassroots Mapping Reader”,

• online archive feedback from C4 meeting, lots to do

  • permalinks for map views - scroll to one location in the map, and embed just that view
  • new view template for a full-screen embeddable map, that reads the hash permalink
  • timeline view (maybe just for nearby maps) that loads other layers
• remove zooming/scrolling in /maps
• sort-by “state name”, recency, license? date?
• search maps: http://publiclaboratory.org/search/node/type:map%20chandeleur

Fundraising

• Lindbergh grant (jeff is back online after weekend and will help out where possible, tell him what to do)
• set up bank account for SIP (and others)
  • backup plan for SIP, put it in Shannon’s account, then a new WePay account, open a nationally-available account after a little more deliberation (Chase, BoA)
