== 0. adoption of agenda ==
[agreement] agenda adopted
ZW chairs, FL takes minutes

[14:35] FrankLoebe: .
== 1. update on FOIS and ISAO 2018 ==

[14:36] FrankLoebe: ZW: we don't have a location for FOIS yet

[14:36] FrankLoebe: ZW: we're still waiting for a couple proposals to 
come in

[14:38] FrankLoebe: ZW: let's see what we have after the next meeting of 
the IAOA Executive Council

[14:39] FrankLoebe: .
== 2. wiki maintenance ==
    a. term/definition updates
       1: formatting           [FL]
       2: contents
    b. textbook updates
    c. other updates?

[14:39] FrankLoebe: ZW: Regarding 2a., I still need to work on 
formatting guidelines

[14:39] FrankLoebe: FL: that item was referring to me, actually, to 
suggest 2-3 term pages with a different layout

[14:40] FrankLoebe: SL: no contents updates since the last meeting

[14:40] FrankLoebe: ZW: if we get the structure sorted out by next 
meeting, we can advertize the wiki again to get more input

[14:42] FrankLoebe: TS: Regarding 2b., I still need to do some updates 
as intended two meetings ago

[14:43] FrankLoebe: FL: I may come back to the textbook pages in the 
wiki in connection with starting editing the new textbook

[14:44] FrankLoebe: ZW: I'd like to check the "Courses around the world" 
page and update that possibly; in ca. September we may notify/ask groups 
on whether they have any updates

[14:44] FrankLoebe: .
== 3. pub quiz @ wiki: status [ZW,MK] ==
    a. Powerpoint uploaded?    [MK]
    b. quiz draft in Wordpress [ZW]

[14:45] FrankLoebe: ZW: I wanted to talk to MK about the upload of the 
Powerpoint

[14:45] FrankLoebe: ZW: I will do that via email now

[14:46] FrankLoebe: ZW: a Wordpress draft should be finished by the next 
EduC meeting

[14:47] FrankLoebe: [action] [FL,ZW] check Wordpress version of the 
coming IAOA website, for easier integration of the draft version by ZW 
and the new IAOA website

[14:48] ZenaWood: TS: Will IAOA and wiki be integrated at some point?

[14:48] ZenaWood: FL: The idea is that they will be integrated

[14:48] ZenaWood: ZW: Is there not a server query?

[14:49] ZenaWood: FL: We have a company designing the new website and a 
next step is to transfer that to the IAOA server. But that process is 
currently stuck, so the Wordpress installation has not been transferred 
to the IAOA servers yet.

[14:49] ZenaWood: FL: After transfer, the wiki and the IAOA website will 
be integrated and run on the IAOA server at Trento.

[14:50] ZenaWood: TS: So IAOA will run their own servers instead of a 
company?

[14:50] ZenaWood: FL: Currently the website runs on a uni server.

[14:51] ZenaWood: FL: It may be more reliable to buy server space but 
that will need to be paid and won't free us from admin aspects

[14:51] ZenaWood: TS: It will not free us but will be reliable from an 
infrastructure point of view

[14:51] ZenaWood: FL: We have someone at the uni helping us. He may not 
help us if we move servers out, i.e., we would need someone else then.

[14:52] FrankLoebe: .
== 4. AOB ==

[14:52] FrankLoebe: ZW: Would we have a textbook meeting today?

[14:52] FrankLoebe: ZW: I setup a new overleaf document for the textbook 
effort.

[14:52] ZenaWood: https://www.overleaf.com/8961103ygxjxyknnvnh

[14:56] FrankLoebe: ZW: I propose, instead of a meeting today, let's 
look at the document and prepare the discussion of the format options 
(cf. sect. 4) for the next meeting.

[14:57] FrankLoebe: [action] [ZW] send the link above to MK to let her know

[14:59] FrankLoebe: [agreement] use [iaoa-education] for communication 
on the textbook effort (instead of any new, separate mailing list or 
sending messages directly to people involved).

[15:00] FrankLoebe: .
== 5. next meeting(s) ==
    a. TBC: Thu, May 04

[15:01] FrankLoebe: date of May 04 ok for ZW, TS, FL, SL; TS needs to 
see whether the time is ok

[15:02] FrankLoebe: [agreement] confirmed: May 4 at the same time

[15:02] FrankLoebe: see these minutes for actions
