Launch Pilot - (November 3rd)

  • Develop a collection of "How to & wiki pages" for all new wiki members. For example, a starter package and introduction. (Leo,Manuel,??,??)
    • Include something...maybe a log...about bugs and future enhancements to avoid any erroneous conclusions about the software. - reid
    • If Hangout works well, we could do some online feedback and training sessions.
  • Setup MailChimp or IContacts form to replace the google docs forms and use an autoresponder to hand out invitations to join the pilot. Less work for the volunteers! - Hilary
    • Monitor the Google Docs Form - Who will follow-up with interested folks? (Manuel, Hilary,??)
      • Do we have access to the generic email address to send messages from?
        • Yes, either we all can share contact@trianglewiki or I can create another one. What do you think? -- Reid Serozi
      • We should also add a column to show status so we don't duplicate follow up.
        • Yes, I added a column called "Follow-up Complete"  thanks! -- Reid Serozi
  • Run through a few usability tests with the canned messages to new users (Jim, Hilary??.??))
