Summary:

This month will be a continuation on last month's website migration talk. This time around, Jeff Moore will address of the issues ran into last time like handling references to the Pilot hosted wiki portion of TriLUG.

The talk will be guided by the problem statement:

The website for TriLUG.org needs to be maintainable by individuals with varying levels of technical skills

Additionally, elections will be held. If you are interested, please either leave a comment on our Meetup page or email our mailing list at trilug@trilug.org after reading https://trilug.org/policies/ prior to the meeting
