Some people wanted it renewed Brian: IDK why we even have this Nick: 2 and a half years ago, we decided to buy a bunch of domains. It was funny. abizer: we should renew to stop domain parking, its only like fifteen dollars Charlie: make the ocf sexy again Vote passed to renew domain. -
<4829>:
Our policy is that we require a "hosted by the OCF" and a university disclaimer This is rarely enforced (see ASUC) Nick: We should absolutely make this policy concrete, i.e. send strongly-worded emails to websites that don't follow Charlie: We should ask but not take down the sites Kevin: Might it be ridiculous that we demand our parent ASUC to do this? Nick: The ridiculousness is that we joined the ASUC for its visiblity services, we definitely should not just abide by this minos: We should target the large orgs first, so smaller ones follow Nick: Oh that doesn't matter, we just disable the site of smaller orgs Brittany: What does the banner even look like Jason: To be fair, our banner is from like 2005 and doesn't look the best Brian: If someone wants to make a new banner, please do Jason: we should make a new one before enforcing the policy minos: in the future, we should have some kind of tracking where some websites have them Nick: that's already been done, we have an imperfect script that trawls websites Compliance from that script is also "very not good" -
