Present: Frank, Roland, Zach, Matt, Erik, Roberto di Pietro,
* close ticket on floating release branch since it seems not straightforward to
* Frank and Steve went through the piraha-everywhere branch and now are only minor issues left. It will most likely arrive on master soon. This will cause a force-rebuild to regenerate the ccl generated files
* restart developer workshops (twice a year). Most likely focused on particular topics so that not everyone (needs to) attend. * monthly task-based remote developer's day so that there is minimum amount of progress on these topics. Initially try using google hangout for this. * please suggest topics that would require 3-4 hours of developer work ** update of the webpage to simplify navigation, a suggestion is to use bootstrap http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/examples/ which uses javascript/css to ensure proper layout on desktops/phones/tablets. Uses javascript for menus, common include headers. Erik played around with http://jekyllrb.com which generates mostly static HTML pages from some markdown type source. ** make sure all example parfiles scattered throughout the ET work ** minor coding projects like writing a single HDF5 file of output rhather than 1 per variable or 1 per group
Yours, Roland

There are actually projects using both in combination, as they are really concentrating on different things. They sound like a good idea, but of course it's them talking about themselves:
"Liquid can be very frustrating to work with so JB does the job for you." (Liquid is the template language used by Jekyll, JB is short for JekyllBootstrap - the example I use here - just an example, no endorsement or anything.)
Jekyll would focus on off-site building, while BootStrap would handle visuals and responsiveness.
