as a followup to this, i think the description of upcoming meetings
should always be more precise and scheduled so that interested parties
can better decide if it's something they're interested in.
currently, the description is somewhat vague:
* Scott Murphy will talk about provisioning your personal systems
with ansible
* Robert Day and John Nash will lead a discussion on using git
if someone is interested in ansible, they would still be wondering
exactly what the topic would be. more to the point, if someone had no
idea what ansible is, it would be worth adding a couple sentences to
describe it to get their attention.
and i'm willing to provide a paragraph of exactly what my proposed
talk would be about so attendees would know just what's coming, and if
they care. :-)
if there's time for my presentation, i'd advertise it socially, but
it would need more detail on the web page.
thoughts?
