Blog post?

stefaniebutland commented 7 years ago

@karthik and @sckott I need some feedback and input on this post. Would like to have it up Thurs June 1st if possible.

can one of you give nice text for 3 bullet point examples of unconf projects to highlight - see placeholder in post
appreciate any feedback on text
I like the whiteboard photo next to a working group photo, but the whiteboard photo looks poor resolution - solution?
I don't have any pics of working groups that look really dynamic
Karthik do you have pics you really want to feature? I chose not to highlight rOpenSci team.
I know whiteboard and working group photos are diff sizes but didn't want to perfect if we were going to get rid of one.
can't figure out how to add appropriate space around R stickers pic or around the embedded tweets
How should I list photo credits?

Thanks!

I guess need to decide which ones first. these seem interesting to highlight:

https://github.com/ropenscilabs/notary & https://github.com/ropenscilabs/r-security-practices (as one) (
https://github.com/ropenscilabs/skimr - very popular already
https://github.com/ropenscilabs/emldown
https://github.com/ropenscilabs/packagemetrics

appreciate any feedback on text

will make comments in line

looks okay to me

I know whiteboard and working group photos are diff sizes but didn't want to perfect if we were going to get rid of one.

can just play with width of left one, e.g., 39% looks pretty good, or maybe 40 would be better. close enough i think

can't figure out how to add appropriate space around R stickers pic or around the embedded tweets

don't know, maybe karthik knows

@stefaniebutland

Possibly link out to all blog posts about unconf so far, think there's been 4 or so
and maybe call for more blog posts from unconf participants ?

stefaniebutland commented 7 years ago

Do we want to cite 45% women at unconf? and the fact that we pay up front for anyone who needs it so there is no barrier to participation and therefore opens door for diversity?

I could really really use suggestion on how to word this

stefaniebutland commented 7 years ago

@karthik could you please give me ~ 1 bullet point sentence each for just 3 of the following projects? I will add to this just before the paragraph about reporting out

https://github.com/ropenscilabs/notary & https://github.com/ropenscilabs/r-security-practices (as one) (
https://github.com/ropenscilabs/skimr - very popular already
https://github.com/ropenscilabs/emldown
https://github.com/ropenscilabs/packagemetrics

@sckott I think it's ready to post! Can you change the filename to match June 2? Would be ideal to get it up before 9am Friday but I'm kinda late so no worries if not.

Thank you @karthik and @sckott for all your help - it's much better now I think
