But still need a backup plan. 02:41 <belkinsa> Which is wordpress.com. 02:42 <wxl> i HATE hosted platforms 02:42 <wxl> but that's just me 02:42 <wxl> so i'd just set up wordpress on one of the aforementioned options 02:42 <belkinsa> Keep in mind, that it needs to please everyone. 02:42 <wxl> wordpress does, really 02:43 <wxl> i mean the only difference between wordpress.com versus wordpress.org (the software) is that they offerr hosting 02:43 <belkinsa> Yeah. 02:43 <wxl> with wordpress.org, we have the option of having a website with a blog component rather than just having a blog 02:43 <belkinsa> But only if hosting is not found. 02:43 <sgclark> right and little option with plugins etc 02:43 <wxl> +1 sgclark 02:43 <wxl> we DO have hosting 02:44 <sgclark> well if all else fails I have a web server, just trying not to pile up more work right now lol 02:44 <wxl> timothy is our last ditch effort 02:44 <belkinsa> Oh, I thought we didn't. 02:44 <wxl> we won't have oregon.ubuntu-us.org (which is the server that ubuntu offers and pleia2 apparently runs) but we can have something else 02:44 <wxl> like ubuntu-oregon.org 02:44 <sgclark> I like that better anyway 02:44 <wxl> which? 02:44 <sgclark> latter 02:45 <sgclark> ubuntu-oregon.org 02:45 <wxl> ah well i kind of do too but being consistent is kind of nice 02:45 <wxl> like mayube i'm looking at utah.ubuntu-us.org and i wonder if there's an oregon one 02:45 <sgclark> yeah, but wasn't there squatters? 02:45 <wxl> we can deal with that 02:45 <sgclark> ok 02:45 <wxl> hold on i need to switch to phone 02:45 <sgclark> well, whatever we can get :) 02:45 <wxl> righjt 02:46 <wxl> #chair wxls5 02:46 <meetingology> Current chairs: wxl wxls5 02:46 <wxlS5> Ok 02:47 <wxlS5> What else? 02:47 <belkinsa> None for me.
