Create a lighting talk page #4

Closed godber closed 9 years ago

godber commented 9 years ago

This page should maintain a running list of recommended lighting talk suggestions that people can pluck from. We can cross out topics that have been addressed.

Is there a way to make a wiki-style page for this in Pelican, or do you just anticipate adding things yourself? I'm happy to make a skeleton for the page, but it would be nice to have a list to start with.

The desertpy site is entirely static, thats what pelican generates. I was anticipating that we would create a master list of some sort and then we'd manually strikethrough the ones that get completed.

I've had requests for newbie material, which I thought we might make a point to regularly integrate some newbie stuff, perhaps in the form of lightning talks.

I just had an idea which I just tested out ... one can embed gists in webpages, this might simplify the task of keeping the list up to date ... all I have to do to mark something off is to go to the gist and check the box.

Wow, that works really well actually and even takes on some of the fonts/styling of the surrounding page. It makes sense to limit access to prevent any potential vandalism as well. I'll create a pull request for the page, and a starting list in a gist.
