25th regular meeting

6 ppl attended

Election of board members

existing board (Martin Hinz, Sophie Schmidt, Clemens Schmid) re-elected by 100% vote of all other participants
election cycles are two years

Clemens presented state of the map: https://sslarch.github.io/MapofComputationalArchaeology/
List of tutorials is filter-able (names, authors, tags, programming language), links to points on the Map
more information can be shown with a “pop up” modal
the modal doesn’t yet work well in the mobile version (scrolling doesn’t fixate on the pop up)
- which is a common problem with bootstrap, but the common solution doesn’t work, because we are using it via the elm libraries
- TODO: this issue will be fixed by Martin, Joe and Clemens until next meeting
when hovering over the map points, links to other points get shown with a dashed line
- these are learning paths suggested by Sophie using the tags as a guide
- TODO: if you know some tutorials better, please check whether you think the links are sensible
ideas how to improve the map:
- highlight starting points of learning paths -TODO will be implemented by colouring the points on the map according to “beginner level” = green, “intermediate level” = yellow, “advanced level” = red – the information is already given in the table
- find nicer symbols, maybe castles, to represent the tutorials (TODO for Sophie)
- add a sentence of explanatory information
- programming a decision tree, which might be interesting to newcomers. good idea, but implementation postponed.
conclusion: looks great! kudos @ Clemens, who did most of the work. will be released after the modal problem has been solved

there are some problems with regular attendance because of an overlap of meetings
we will discuss changing the regular date next year, when most know their new schedules (prob. February / March)
Thursday was already put forward
