In the meantime we could use a transitional name. Here are some ideas using the undefined
concept (we would still transfer to the MiamiJS organization):
UndeFLinedJS
undefined
Personally, don't see a point in going from "NodeJS Enthusiasts SE Florida" to
@CristinaSolana Yeah, it might be too much change too fast. Best to make a single a change.
SunshineJS
has been growing on me lately.
I like SunshineJS.
If SunshineJS turns out to be the one, lmk and I will update the logo to replace Miami with Sunshine. I still like MiamiJS personally, but SunshineJS would be my second pick.
From the outside looking in:
undefined
is actually a pretty cool name for a javascript meetup.
undefined
value is notoriously associated with javascript developmentundefined

Hey guys!
I think we've let this simmer enough. From my perspective, if we are trying to build a family of meetups in South Florida, the family should definitely be called SunshineJS
. It is the most inclusive to all the areas we want to cover. There could still be a meetup group called MiamiJS
that's simply part of the SunshineJS
family. Each individual meetup group and its leaders can choose the branding that most suits them. The SunshineJS
family would be there for support, be it the need of meetup content, sponsorship, venue, whatever the case may be. Geographically speaking, I think that the MiamiJS
brand makes the most sense for the group that @dambalah is spearheading. Node.js and browser JavaScript topics can be covered by the same group! If @dambalah wants to focus on Node.js, somebody else can take initiative for browser topics.
To @young-steveo's point, I do think undefined
is a cool name. I'm thinking we could use it for meetup topics that aren't defined by JavaScript but are useful to all developers (editors, workflow, git, etc.).
@CristinaSolana After talking to @onel0p3z the other day he mentioned that you had some misgivings. Before we close the issue I'd love to hear what you have to say! We probably should have done this from the beginning since MiamiJS
is your idea. I want all of us to feel good about what we are doing! Anyway, would you mind jumping on a hangout with @onel0p3z and I some time this week? @dambalah would also be welcome!
Hi @khalifenizar, I'd rather commit to Miami atm. Go ahead and create an org for the new name so we can transfer these repos over.
Hey guys! I've created the organization and sent invites! Here it is: https://github.com/SunshineJS.
After speaking to Stewart, I'm not 100% sure if we should go with
MiamiJS
or a more South Florida style meetup name. We all agree that we want to be inclusive of all things JavaScript (including browser JavaScript). Most of us also agree thatNodeJS Enthusiasts SE Florida
is a but too wordy. Ideally our brand would imply the general South Florida region without necessarily limiting it to a single city or county (although Miami might be iconic enough to overcome that). That said, we also want an attractive, concise name that's fun to say. Here are the ideas we've thrown around so far:MiamiJS
(iconic, but ultimately only a single city)FortJS
(sounds cool, but again only a single city)SoFloJS
GatorJS
SunshineJS
(I think this is missing theSouth
part)GladesJS
Any input is welcome!
