Next meeting: Wednesday Dec 2. Ill nominally set it for 3pm, but would people prefer a bit later, say 5pm?
We now have roll-out dates for the January front page stories, all which will appear at a weekly interval, on Sat afternoon.
Jan 2: Breaking Barriers Meet preview
Jan 9: Bioinformatics Meet preview
Jan 16: Narlikar Interview
Jan 23: Molecular Motors preview
Jan 30: The Wlldlife Success Story continues
Those involved in writing the text for these stories, please send me latest drafts tomorrow, Monday at the v latest. Shova has been working very hard on the graphics side of things, an has them under control. Vijay and Upi have granted Shova permission to adapt the main portal page's color scheme to match the front page graphic of the week. Should make for an exciting fresh look!
This will cover us beyond my Jan 27 return date, and hopefully the Season Watch story could come together for Feb 6?
We also have some interesting "page 2" stories shaping up
- the Spanish Connection (TV crew documents Eva in the lab; Sarita
- Reunion in India Story - from Sowdhamini's lab (Shameer)
Rajesh from computing has found an absolutely amazing and free News Site management system, called ProsePoint, and so already the NCBS news Site (minus any stories) is online!!
NCBS news You can click on one of the fake sample stories to see what an individual story page would look like.
Prposepoint is extraordinarily powerful so myself and rajesh are reading through the documentation to see how to work with it, and add in NCBS's existing News content to this. Prosepoint Documentation
It would be great if someone from the team could assume responsibility for doing some minor weekly refreshments to the main news page during January. Please contact me if you are, and we will get together on Tuesday (at latest) for a chat.
