Secretary's Report

  • Upcoming "Rebuild HacDC.org" schedule on meetup.com; proposed language:

``` A number of issues are occurring on hacdc.org and wiki.hacdc.org; this is a large problem for a group of coding engineers, and a large shame-on-me as a board member.

As 2024 begins, our group should be ready to launch a new and much-upgraded copy of our dear online domain. This is a large challenge though; heed the dangers. Our old pages from WordPress need to be publicly backed up and screened for republication. Many images need to be dug up from the linux box running our wiki, where they're no longer rendering. Our graphic designs should include a bunch of room to expand our operations, including a means of bringing the cherished occupancy sensor back online.

Plus, hardly anyone has seen the hackerspace in the morning sun. Rise and shine. ```
