Promotional and Educational Material

We're going to need:

• a poster (perhaps following sponsorship, if that gets sorted soon?)
• a guide to the sprints
• some information on CC, etc (we're working on that now)
• a website?
• what else?

I am willing to help with some of these. Namely the website.
Of course you are welcome to use any of my artworks for the poster and such.

With the website I have been building static sites with Python and Nikola. These are mainly made for blogs but can work find for static information websites.
An example of this I have been working on is http://wcmckee.com/yogaandco for my Mothers yoga work.

Cheers

Ramping up activity on social networks might be a good idea too (Twitter, Facebook, et al).

Good idea, Dave - we'll aim to do that for the remainder of the year. We've got a few dozen expressions of interest, though we'll obviously want a heck of a lot more.

William - that's awesome. I'll get some shared docs started, and we can get started.

Hi all - would folks mind if we put together a quick launch website using a wordpress event template, as well as a poster with similar design? We have a designer we're working with on other stuff, who can put together something pretty and functional for us all. @williammckee, I might ask you to help with the guides rather than the website, if that's ok?

Hi Matt. That is fine. Let me know about anything you need a hand with.

The bare bones of a guide for people on the day is here: https://etherpad.net/p/OERSprint_Guide

I'll continue to chip away at it - others are more than welcome to do so as well!

Hey all - draft website is up here: http://oersprint.nz/

We're just waiting on a logo, and then we add a header to the site and be good to go.

If we want to change the website later (move away from wordpress, etc), that's totally fine. The content is pretty simple, and easy to export.

Looking good so far!

Hi everyone - thanks for all the hard work - the website looks great! Is it ready to be shared yet?
