[iaoa-infrastructure] editing the new IAOA website [was Re: administrative rights for the new IAOA website]

[Laure Vieu]

Dear Ken, dear all,

@Ken: can you give all of us in the infrastructure committee the rights
to edit the new website on Digital Ocean? (and tell us how to login).

We need to act to implement the modifications listed on the shared
document (originally created by Amanda).

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1rzHwcb86CFFR78EbaWNEc7Y1NizlExc9QGWOSoFR5tU/edit

(see Section 5, to-do, purple items to be addressed first)

When a modification is started / done, this should be recorded on the
doc so as to avoid two people to work on the same task.

I guess it is useful to meet to coordinate on these actions sometime
this week or next week.
Here is a doodle taking my own constraints into account:

I have selected a time that I believe suits Amanda best. If needed, the
time can shift. Please write it in comments.
NB: Europe will not have started yet daylight saving time

Best
Laure
