I want to make a page for onboarding resources. At first it's going to live in a gist (which I will link to in a comment here), but where should it live after that? Comments and thoughts more than welcome.

geografa commented 9 years ago

I like the idea of a /organize page.

mapsam commented 9 years ago

:+1: on the creation of a page at maptime.io.

/organize, /onboarding, /start, /organizers, /plan, /todo, /i-can-keep-going

@lyzidiamond I've currently linked to it in the .readme for maptime-admin. We also need a Start a new Chapter page on .io. Chapter/start-a-chapter and that could be a place where we (a) link to the onboarding docs and then (b) provide a form to fill out when people are ready. I know forms seem inhuman, but we need to move towards some kind of automation for this process. ...which is another issue...

mapsam commented 9 years ago

Looking into forms on static sites @bethschechter and bumped into Formspree which sends information to a remote DB and emails the results to a specified email. Seems like it would be perfect. Could have all of these run straight into hello@maptime.io

mapsam commented 9 years ago

Are there any limits? Yep, for now we cap submissions to 1000 per email for each month. If you need more, please reach out to team@formspree.io.

That seems like more than enough, yes?

bethschechter commented 9 years ago

@svmatthews cool! 1000 a month is totally enough.

Also, this is starting to get pretty similar to #48 - mind if I mark as duplicate?

geografa commented 9 years ago

yes plz :)

bethschechter commented 9 years ago

thanks! I don't know how to merge things.

mapsam commented 9 years ago

Don't have permissions to, but it's closed and referenced so whatevs! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

geografa commented 9 years ago

ooh. I think I need a better profile image. Every time I close a ticket it looks like I'm being such jerk about it.
