No description was provided for this meeting.
If this is YOUR meeting, an easy way to fix this is to add a description to your video, wherever mtngs.io found it (probably YouTube).
A

I'm
I'm
new
to
backdrop
and
working
on
some
sites
and
since
I'm
going
through
a
new
installation,
I'm
writing
a
sort
of
high-level
introduction
to
backdrop
sort
of
ultimately
beginners
a
guideline
to
backdrop
and
having
put
that
anywhere
yet,
but
it's
being
written
I've
got
two
long
pages
on
it.
I
was
working
with
Tim
for
a
little
while
and
maybe
occasionally
I'll
check
in
with
Tim
again
to
see
where
I
can
go
with
it.

Hi
I'm
Greg
Jenning
from
Greece,
usually
yeah
being
Australian,
but
now
in
Greece
I,
don't
know
that's
time
to
contribute
lately
as
it
used
to
so
I'm
using
these
meeting
as
a
means
to
cuts
the
rest
of
the
gun.
You
see.
What's
going
on.
A
A
Social
media
I
just
talked
about
I
have
not
logged
into
Facebook
in
a
very
long
time.
I
feel
like
we
have
a
lot
more
followers
on
Facebook
than
we
do
on
Twitter,
so
I
don't
know
if
anyone
else
is
on
Facebook
often
and
what
the
interested
in
scheduling
stuff
for
backdrop
I
can
do
the
same
ones.
I
just
did
on
Twitter
I'll
do
similar
ones
on
Facebook
later
today,
but
I
always
forget
about
Facebook.
So
if
we
have
anyone
else
that
wants
to
manage
that,
that's
a
good
job
I'm.
A
A
All
right,
our
next
newsletter
social
media
blog
posts,
finally,
which
is
great,
but
we
need
to
send
a
newsletter
announcing
1:16
and
we've-
had
a
lot
of
trouble
lately
figuring
out
how
to
send
a
newsletter.
Today,
I
spent
some
time
trying
to
untangle
our
mess
with
mail
jet
and
me
I
logged
into
the
info,
a
factor
of
CMS
account
and
there's
a
landing
page
saying
we're
sorry
to
see
you
go
your
captain's,
been
canceled
I,
don't
know
you
cancel
that
account
or
not.
A
Maybe
they
cancelled
it
on
us
anyway,
we
don't
have
access
to
that
account.
That
was
the
account
that
for
a
little
while
was
sending
email
from
the
back
drop
server.
It
is
not
doing
that
anymore,
so
it
it
isn't
really
that
important
and
it
could
have
been
like.
Maybe
we
didn't
use
it
for
30
days
and
I
automatically
cancelled
I,
don't
know
how
that
works,
but
we
don't
have
access
to
any
of
the
data
that
was
there
because
the
account
was
gone.
A
A
A
A
Well,
we
would
have
lost
if
we
just
call
our
MailChimp
Fiasco
wash
would
be
anyone
who
signed
up
between
when
we
switched
from
MailChimp
to
mail
jet,
which
I
think
was
in
November
till
we
notice
that
we
didn't
have
access
to
our
mail
jet
account,
which
is
January,
so
it
would
be
two
P
two
months
of
signups,
which
is
unfortunate,
but
if
something
that's
not
not
that
bad.
Considering
we
have
everyone
from
before
I'm,
never
wrong
laughter,
so
I'm
happy
to
do
that.
A
I
did
spend
some
time
again
today,
trying
to
log
into
that
account.
We
can't
hug
into
I
did
not
receive
a
password
reset.
Email
I
have
not
never
received
an
email
from
their
support
team.
It
just
can't
get
to
the
doctor.
Cms
email
address,
so
I,
don't
know.
If
there's
any
way,
we
can
ever
get
access
to
that
again.
So
I
feel
like
at
this
point.
It's
probably
best
to
sort
of
move
on
and
choose
a
service
we
can
use
to
send
mail.
So
that
brings
us
to
the
next
option.
A
A
A
Automation
tool,
we're
gonna,
be
automating
our
marketing,
but
anyway
it's
a
tool
that
is
specifically
intended
for
managing
manless
and
sending
emails,
which
is
exactly
what
we
want
to
do
here
long
term.
We
want
to
set
up
a
CRM
system,
contact
management
system
or
contact
relationship,
so
thing
it'll
help
us
not
just
send
emails
to
these
people,
but
be
able
to
figure
out
like
which
of
these.
A
People
are
the
ones
that
give
us
donations
and
which
ones
that
these
people
are
ones
that
volunteers,
that
when
we
have
a
specific
need,
whether
it's
donation,
nurse
or
volunteers
or
whatever
we
know
which
group
to
contact
it
would
also
be
great
if
we
could
tie
these
people
to
their
registration
at
backdrop,
events,
so
one
who's
attended.
One
of
these
backdrop
days
a
camper
conference.
We
can
indicate
that
they're
something
a
little
bit
more
like
the
drupal.org
CRM
system,
which
also
use
the
civvie,
where
you
come
with
mark
on
your
profile.
A
A
Serum
yeah,
that
has
a
backdrop.
It
has
backup
integration
and
they've,
been
a
huge
supporter
since
beginning
back
trap,
yeah
backed
up
support
before
they
had
your
full
aid
support.
We've
worked
very
closely
with
one
of
the
city
core
committers
who's.
Here
in
the
Bay
Area
we've
done
Sprint's.
Together,
it's
been
around
for
a
really
long
time.
It
was
a
Drupal
module
before
it
was
a
standalone
piece
of
software.
A
Crm
I
think
it
started
as
with
it
with
the
Howard
Dean
campaign,
as
the
first
like
mobile,
like
I,
don't
know.
What's
that
called
wait
way
to
reach
people
online,
whereas
back
then
most
of
like
political
stuff
was
done
through
actual
mail
and
face-to-face
contact,
and
this
is
like
one
of
the
first
movements
to
move
everything
online,
which
is
pretty
exciting,
but
it's
come
a
really
long
way.
Since
then,
you
know
we
have
lots
of
serum
systems
and
yeah
so
anyway,
I'm
very
excited
about
what
we
know.
A
Sammy's
here
jack
at
pelant,
a
technology
cooperative,
has
volunteered
some
resources
from
her
their
team
to
put
into
setting
that
up
for
backdrop,
but
I
know
they've
been
really
busy,
especially
with
all
the
stuff.
That's
going
on
right
now
and
I.
Don't
think
that's
gonna
happen
in
the
next
month
or
so,
but
I
can't
ask
them
again.
A
A
B
A
So
I
was
looking
at
this
morning
is
checking
out
SendGrid,
which
is
a
giant
commercial
system,
but
I've
had
a
lot
of
excess
success
using
them
to
deliver
emails
with
SMTP
like
using
with
SMTP
module.
Getting
your
website
to
send
through
sound
good
most
of
the
sites
that
I
have
on
Pantheon.
You
send
good
to
send
mail
and
they're
doing
the
deliverability
is
really
good
when
I
first
started
using
them,
they
didn't
have
a
mail
email
sending
tool
like
they
didn't
have
templates.
A
They
didn't
have
the
ability
to
market
messages
to
specific
groups,
so
I
logged
in
today
to
check
it
out
and
they've
added
all
of
this.
They
probably
added
it
awhile
ago,
but
I
haven't
looked
a
long
time
and
it
looks
haven't
gotten
into
the
like
design
of
anything
yet,
but
it
looks
like
it
will
be
relatively
easy
to
manage.
A
So
my
instinct
was
oh
and
it's
free
for
like
100,000
emails
a
month,
we
usually
only
send
one
newsletter
a
month
and
it's
less
than
5,000
people,
so
that
seems
like
we
would
have
no
problem
remaining
in
the
free
version
for
a
while
and
part
of
my
reason
for
leaning
towards
Sun,
because
we've
had
so
many
problems
with
male
chats,
deliverability
and
maybe
not
to
our
contacts.
But
to
us,
and
so
my
first
instinct
is
like.
A
Let's
just
do
some
place
that
we
know
is
going
to
get
the
emails
that
people
need
to
email
and
yeah.
The
only
question
would
be
so:
SendGrid
is
recently
bought
by
like
willy
o
or
something
might
have
very
different
philosophy
objectives
and
some
of
the
other
options
that
are
out
there.
It's
like
City
CRM,
is
great
because
it
aligns
with
us
in
terms
of
our
philosophy.
A
You
know
sound
card
is
very
complicated,
so
from
a
user
interface
perspective.
It
wouldn't
surprise
me,
if
is
substantially
better
but
yeah
that
so
that's
good
to
know
about,
and
look
at
that.
So
let
me
just
throw
this
out
there
if
anybody
knows
of
any
other
email,
sending
tools
similar
to
MailChimp
or
mail
jet
or
SendGrid
or
mounted
or
Constant
Contact
or
any
of
these
services
that
you
think
would
align
very
well
with
back
Jeff's
philosophy
and
objectives.
Let
us
know,
because
we
are
in
the
market
for
an
email
sending
tool
just
very
short
term.
A
A
A
All
right,
so
that's
newsletter
trauma.
The
good
news
is
that,
because
we
have
this
fantastic
blog
post
by
backchat
1.6,
we
have
content
for
the
newsletter,
so
we
just
need
to
figure
out
how
to
send
it.
We
can
get
it
out
pretty
quickly.
So
that's
exciting,
all
right
so
for
outreach.
There's
a
section
in
this
meeting
where
we
try
and
talk
about
things
that
are
relevant
to
backdrop
right
now
like
what's
going
on
in
the
world
right
now.
What
kind
of
things
should
we
be
telling
everyone
about?
A
Obviously,
back
to
1.6
came
out
recently
that
was
pretty
exciting
I,
don't
know
if
there's
anything
else
that
we
could
be
doing.
That's
I,
don't
know,
I
know
when
the
Cova
19
crisis
first
started.
There
were
a
whole
bunch
of
people
who
are
using
backdrop
to
set
up
sites
really
quickly
for
people
who
needed
help.
I
don't
know
if
we
have
content
on
any
of
those
stories,
but
that
might
be
really
nice
to
share
if
we
have
a
sort
of
uplifting
story
about
how
doctor
about
someone.
A
D
A
B
A
E
A
Timely
information
that
we
could
share
with
people
is
information
on
upgrading
I
personally
I'm
doing
a
very
small
number
of
upgrades
right
now,
but
I
do
think
that
that
could
be
a
great
opportunity
to
make
a
quick
video
of
part
of
that
upgrade
process.
If
there's
something
that
you
think
goes
particularly
well
and
just
kind
of
get
it
out
there
and
be
like
hey.
F
A
Just
upgraded
my
say:
okay,
this
is,
you,
know,
run
the
update
script.
It's
done
stuff
like
that
would
be
really
good.
Also,
maybe
something
that
might
highlight
like
differences,
maybe
improvements,
how
configuration
management
works,
just
something
that
people
who
are
on
Drupal
7
and
might
benefit
from
for
a
musing
backdrop
that
they
don't
know
is
in
there.
That
could
be
really
cool
too.
A
So
if
anyone
has
anything
specifically
related
to
upgrading
or
things
that
they
really
love
about,
backdraft
that
you
don't
get
one
Drupal,
7
I
think
now's
a
good
time
to
highlight
those
and
then
it's
a
we've
got
some
options
here
about
like
documentation.
If
we
have
I,
don't
know
what
that
was
from
last
I
might
think
of
something
about.
We
have
documentation
on
upgrading.
It
may
be
good
to
promote
that,
because
people
are
doing
their
research
and
then
I
have
a
note
here.
Improvements
to
make
it
easier,
I
would
love
it.
A
If
we
continue
to
improve
the
upgrade
path.
I
know
it's
a
lot
easier
than
moving
anything
else.
It's
still
not
as
easy
as
I
want
it
to
be,
so
I
want
to
try
and
look
at
how
we
can
address
pain
points
in
in
upgrades
and
make
those
better
I.
Think
coder
module
might
be
involved
in
that
a
lot
for
any
of
the
code
changes,
but
I
think
there
might
be.
D
I
had
a
thought,
the
other
day,
I
haven't
listed
out
completely
and
I,
don't
know
how
much
we
deviated
or
if
it's
far
too
in
the
future
now
or
d7
is
in
the
past.
So
I
was
thinking
that
the
the
main
went
pain
point
with
us
is
that
people
need
to
get
used
to
the
whole
layouts
and
the
way
that
things
working
in
Metro
and
when
I
was
thinking
from
and
here's
a
perspective.
D
I
thought
that
yeah,
if
a
customer
who,
if
a
person
a
site
owner,
chooses
to
go
to
d8
or
Denine,
they
will
have
to
do
the
whole
rewrite
of
things
like
I,
get
fifteens
rewrite
them
in
tweak
and
so
on.
But
it's
kind
of
the
same
for
that
bit
with
us,
so
I'm
not
sure
how
easy
it
would
be
to
sort
of
like
allow
these
seven
things
to
just
work
with
like
if
we
could
decouple
that
thing
so
that
we
provide
some
backwards-compatible
layer
so
that
people
can
start
they
can
upgrade
the
database.
D
D
A
I,
don't
think,
there's
a
way
we
could
like
turn
off
layout
module
and
let
them
use
blocks
and
Athene,
but
we
can
do
a
better
job
of
creating
a
layout
based
on
a
Drupal
7
theme.
So
that's
kind
of
why
I'm
thinking
about
kotor
module
as
being
an
option
where
like
if
we
could
give
people
a
button
that
was
like
make
me
a
layout
that
would
take
their
page
template
and
convert
it
into
flexible.
A
D
A
Yeah
and
that
way,
we're
not
like
having
to
add
a
bunch
of
later
and
and
we're
also
giving
them
like
a
starting
point.
It's
close
enough
to
what
they
have,
but
they
don't
need
to
understand
it
yet
just
build
first,
but
yeah
I
think
like
I,
agree
that
that
not
only
is
it
work
that
sort
of
needs
a
developer
to
do
it,
but
it's
conceptually
very
different
from
how
Drupal
solve
this
problem.
So,
even
though
you
have
developers
are
like
I'm
willing
to
do
that,
work,
you
hit
them
with
this
thing.
A
D
D
Yeah,
so
I
think
that
we
still
have
time
a
lot
of
time
until
it's
a
year
and
a
half
almost
so
we
have
plenty
of
time
to
automate
and
improve
things
when
it
comes
to
whatever
can
be
automated,
like
import
migration,
thoughts
and
stuff
like
that.
But
this
is
the
most
tricky
bit
that
people
have
to
solve
like
manually
work
on,
so
whatever
we
can
do
to
automate
that
we'd
sort
of
like
lower
the
barrier
for
people
to
migrate,
yeah.
A
D
D
A
Initiative
to
because
we're
here
talking
about
like
okay
I,
have
a
Drupal
7
theme
and
I
wanted
to
work
on
backdrop,
and
maybe
you
don't
want
to
touch
any
code
right.
Maybe
you
wanted
it
to
just
work
so
that
could
sort
of
fall
under
the
theme
initiative
where
if
we
could
find
a
way
to
make
it
so
you
could
put
your
triple7
theme
on
your
backdrop
site
in
it
would
make
itself
work.
E
D
E
I
mean
it,
it
is
it
is
that
idea,
the
the
whole.
The
whole
point
is
reducing
barriers
to
entry
to
adopting
backdrop
for
for
in
the
ready-to-wear
in
case
everybody,
but
but
it
also
counts,
for
you
know,
people
coming
from
from
Drupal
I.
The
the
example
in
this
case
would
be,
you
know,
rather
than
convert
your
existing
Drupal
team.
D
So
the
ready
to
weigh
initiative
does
it?
Is
it
backed
off
right
away
with
things
ready
to
weigh
so
cuz
yeah
I
saw
them
ready
to
weigh
sort
of
like
a
trademark
thing
and
then
and
then
all
that
started
mentioning
a
couple
of
themes
or
this
specific
thing
that
we
started
building
which
would
be
sort
of
like
agnostic
to
layouts
or
whatever
would
be
ready
to
use
and
I
thought
that
the
ready-to-wear
initiative
was
ascitic
to
things
are.
E
D
But
in
my
head
the
ready-to-wear
would
be
these
things
that
are
ready
to
work
with
backdrop
right,
one
one
issue,
but
then
the
the
site
owners
have
to
make
a
decision
of
dropping
their
previous
limits
and
going
with
one
of
these,
so
they
have
to
choose
one
that
matches
their
previous
theme
as
close
as
possible.
So
to
avoid
doing
extra
work,
yeah.
E
I
mean
I,
guess,
I
I
think
you
begin
to
the
world
where
they
have
a
previous
theme.
Then
then
we're
possibly
talking
about
a
different
marketing
space
than
the
the
market.
I
had
in
mind.
For
us,
the
users
were
people
who
don't
necessarily
know
what
the
word
seeing
and
means
or
have
you
know
any
idea
what
them
you
know,
we're
we're
if
you
say
to
them.
Well,
just
create
your
theme.
It
sounds
to
them
like.
Well,
just
you
know.
Do
an
open-heart
surgery
like
you
normally
do.
It
sounds
completely.
E
You
know
not,
and
so
they
just
give
up
so
I
I
want
to
avoid
I
thought
was
that
we
want
to
avoid
people
just
giving
up
just
get
the
dirt,
actually
try
it
in
and
discover
the
things
they
can
do
and
and
let
them
do
the
things
they
can
do
right
away
and
and
I'd
fancier
stuff,
more
custom,
stuff,
more
personal
stuff.
Later
once
they're
no
longer,
you
know
faced
with
a
blank
slate
slate
and
a
dead
site,
but.
A
We
can
introduce
that
will
just
make
regions
work
like
regions,
yeah
yeah,
but
if
coder
module
could
you
could
push
a
button
and
it
could
generate
a
big
file
that
would
give
you
a
layout
like
that.
I
think
is
enough
that
you
could
run
your
theme
and
it
could
just
like
rename
page
template
use
new
layout
and
it
wouldn't
be
perfect
what
you
gonna
leave
to
have
all
your
stuff,
where
it's
supposed
to
be.
There's
some
other
things
too.
Like
the
thing,
one
of
the
things
that
I
think
makes
a
truthful
theme.
A
Distinctive
is
the
header
and
the
header
and
back
up
is
its
own
template
file,
and
so
that's
something
that
you
would
need
to
like.
Pull
out
of
the
page
template
and
drop
in
there.
But
even
though
that's
like
work
and
conceptually
something
different,
it's
also
something
coder
module
could
do
like
it
could
find
a
tag
with
a
class
header
or
an
ID
header
or
a
header
tag,
and
if
any
of
those
exists,
it
can
pull
out
that
entire
chunk
of
code
and
write
it
into
a
new
file
called
header,
and
if
that
could
it
could.
A
D
A
You
have
a
layout
in
your
back
that
has
the
same
region
names
as
your
theme
in
Drupal
7.
We
will
put
the
blocks
in
the
right
place
and
even
better
than
that.
If
you
had
blocks
that
had
like
content
type
specific
settings
like
this
law
only
appears
on
a
blog
page.
We
will
create
a
blog
template
and
put
the
blocks
in
the
right
place
on
the
blog
layout
and.
A
A
Is
that
you
have
to
have
those
layouts
before
you
run
the
upgrade,
and
most
people
want
to
run
the
upgrade
first
and
then
see
how
much
work
you
have,
and
so,
if
you
do
that,
what
you're
probably
gonna
be
doing
is
upgrading
into
Bartok
and
in
Bartok
we
don't
know
where
those
themes
from
your
Drupal
7
regions
from
your
Drupal,
seven
Theme,
how
they
match
to
the
ones
in
barking.
There
is
a
way
you
can.
A
A
A
C
C
D
E
You
have
to
type
in
a
column
name
that
matches
your
CSV,
whereas
note
import
would
read
the
CSV,
throw
up
a
list
of
the
columns
and
throw
up
a
list
of
the
fields,
unless
you
say
put
this
to
this,
but
this
this
I
would
see
a
user
interface
like
this
there
it
would,
it
would
read
your
tip
afem
list.
The
regions
show
you
the
regions
they
can
go
to,
and
you
know
if
you're
mapping
they're
already
mapped.
F
A
There's
no
header
region
at
all
interval,
and
so,
if
we
did
a
conversion,
you'd
end
up
with
a
site
with
no
header.
So
we
would
need
to
be
like
okay,
I'm,
just
gonna
assume
that
if
there's
no
region
called
header
but
I'm
gonna
make
one
and
I'm
gonna
put
it
here
and
I'm
gonna
place
the
header
block
in
it
and
then
we're
gonna.
Let
them
fix
it.
So
I
think
there's
some
stuff
like
that.
We're
just
gonna
have
to
assume
and
then
back
up.
A
D
And
the
thing
is
that,
even
if
it
ended
up
like
that-
and
we
made
the
assumptions
if
they,
if
the
people
ended
up
with
a
flexible
layout,
they
could
tweak
it
yeah,
because
because
from
the
user
interface,
that's
what
I'm
saying
so,
instead
of
having
nothing
or
having
to
go
into
code
to
achieve
things
at
least
we
make
some
assumptions
and
we
migrate.
What
we
think
like
it's
not
going
to
be
perfect,
but
it's
not
gonna
be
from
scratch.
That's.
E
D
E
Mean
the
worst-case
scenarios:
you
end
up
with
a
white
screen
of
death
and
that's
you
know
no
good
and
then
the
second
worse.
You
end
up
with
like
lots
of
data
missing,
but
if
we
ended
with
all
the
data
is
there,
but
it's
in
the
wrong
place.
I
think
that'll
strike
a
lot
of
people
as
a
fixable
process.
Okay
I
see
that
there
I
just
have
to
figure
out
how
I
move
over
there
yeah.
A
If
we
were
to
make
a
custom
flexible
layout
and
we
get
a
message
and
be
like
hey,
we
didn't
know
where
to
put
your
X
block,
go
to
this
layout
configuration
page
and
place
it
where
you
want
it.
That
would
also
sort
of
tip
them
off
to
be
like
okay.
Well,
it
knows,
there's
content,
that's
not
there
and
I
have
the
ability
to
put
it
where
I
want
it,
where
somebody
who
wasn't
familiar
thats
before
that
might
be
a
much
easier
introduction.

Last
week,
I
think
I
might
have
mentioned
the
so
many
contacted
me
beyond
my
context.
One
and
they're
like
hey,
need
to
look
spectra,
but
I
need
this
theme
and
they
handed
me
this
project
that
was
like
an
install
profile
and
like
eight
helper
modules
and
a
theme
and
page
builder,
and
all
this
stuff
and
I'm
like
I,
need
it
like
I
need
to
really
try
and
figure
out
how
to
do
this.
In
fact,
I
really
need
like
a
lot
of
time
to
look
at
it.
D
So
these
you
guys,
like
I,
don't
do
this
professionally,
so
I
would
only
have
this
sites
if
I
could
get
my
hands
on
any.
So
if
there's
anything
that
you
guys
notice
as
being
repetitive
tasks,
that
could
be
automated
its
make
an
issue
about
it.
Hey.
This
is
something
that
I
do
constantly.
Maybe
we
can
put
some
logic
into
it
and
we
can
be
able
to
make.
A
Anything
that's
like
I'm
writing
code
to
do
it
for
me,
but
I
also
want
this
thing
at
Luke's,
describing
it
doesn't
involve
helping
you
write
code
actually
build
stuff
in
an
interface
for
you
and
I
think
that
what
we
can
build
in
backdrop
is
configuration
which
is
what
you
recommended,
making
it
a
flexible
thing
and
then
yeah
man.
If
we
could.
A
D
Even
even
if
someone
chooses
a
d7
theme-
and
they
say-
oh,
this
looks
cool,
but
it
hasn't
been
ported
over
there's
nothing
equivalent
in
match
up.
So
besides
running
this
thing
during
the
Installer,
you
could
say
techniques
or
examine
this
thing
and
convert
to
whatever
these
clothes
mats
for
backdrop,
layouts
and
block.
So
ever
yeah.
