Hello everyone,<br>
<br>
We've had a proposal to discuss <span>hosting a full
listing of community events and festivals - maybe with a dedicated
page, for Regather (www.</span><a href="http://regather.net" target="_blank">regather.net</a>)<br>
<br>
Regather is a great organisation and it would be good to help, but
it depends on how, and how much work! Would anyone like to join in
the discussion, please?<br>
<br>
Gareth is happy to have a meeting about it, Andy has said he would
come along to that, if one or two others could also come that would
be great.<br>
<br>
<div>Thanks,<br>
Jonathan<br>

<div dir="ltr">OK happy to meet. Generally speaking I'm at
Regather Mon - Sat, 9am-6pm except Mon, Tues and Sat afternoons
when I finish early at @ 2pm. I can also do Mon and Tues
evenings with sufficient notice. Happy to meet at Regather, or
come somewhere else if that's better for you.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It would be good to get an initial dialogue on the proposal
going via email, so we're not coming to it cold at the meeting
- I'm happy for you to forward my previous email if that
helps.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>A bit of backstory - historically there has not been a
centralised online location for a community and festival
listings. Welcome to Sheffield, Our Fave Places and the
Sheffield Directory all have had bits of info over the years,
but it's been piecemeal and inconsistent. The thinking is that
Alt Sheff already has an event listings and has the right
ethos, so it would simply (!?) be a case of promoting the site
to community and festival organisers, and then if possible
tweak the site to present that info in a more focused manner.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks, Gareth</div>

We always make decisions on changes by whole group
consensus, so my thought was to bring one or two others
along to meet, then we'd put it to our group. Usually we
find that a (small) group meeting produces better
solutions than the first suggestions (usually from one
person ... usually me!!)<br>
<br>
I appreciate that you're *really* busy, but if we could
fix a time for a really concentrated meeting, perhaps
30/45 minutes? we could work out what's going to be most
workable and mutually beneficial?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

<div>Happy to meet up if needed. Might be worth
chatting over email to start with maybe? Having
looked at the site my initial suggestion would be
a 'community events and festivals' page that
displays a sub-set of listed events based on a tag
or something similar. Is this doable? Thoughts
welcome of course...</div>

Hi Jonathan,<br>
<br>
Would Alt Sheff be up for hosting a full
listing of community events and festivals
- maybe with a dedicated page? Would be
good to have a chat about it.<br>
<br>
Cheers, Gareth<br>
