• MQ web committee meeting 10-27-13
   
  Members present:  Tony Kernan, Otto Piechowski, John Mitchell, Edward Shuman, Jim Fritz, Joe Groves, Jennifer Muzyka
   
  We opened with a prayer that is used by all groups in the parish/diocese. We discussed questions related to the prayer and reading.
   
  Committee members introduced themselves and explained what they do as part of the committee.  Jennifer makes slides related to the reading for the gathering area.  (We need a volunteer to take on this responsibility since Jennifer leave the committee as moves to another parish when her son graduates from Lexington Catholic.)  Jim tests the website and reports broken links and other issues to John.  Edward developed the design for the website.  John inputs data on the site as we have converted it from one host (cattholicweb) to another (cdlex).  We examined the youth group section, which has still not been updated.
   
  We need to get with Sr. Mary Ann Warner to make sure she is okay with the updated version of the site.  There are some links that still point to the old site.  The links should be fixed when these issues are discovered.
   
  Joe says that Tony and John are working on migrating to the new server.  They let him know what they are working on so he can make sure that they don't overlap efforts.  Jennifer Longworth works on the Facebook page.  Jill Heinke also works on something.
   
  Putting documents on website.  Documents should be converted to web pages so they can be viewed directly instead of being downloaded.
   
  How many homilies should we keep on the website?  Six months?  Ten homilies?  Space doesn't seem to be an issue.  As we need more space, we will be given more space.  We agreed to keep homilies by quarter.  When we start the next quarter, we will delete the oldest quarter listed.  That way, we will have 3-6 months on the site.
   
  Jim has been reporting errors to John.  John has been fixing them.  We don't have any information about food preparation.  We have a number of sites under parish life with no information.  Edward asked if we should leave the links up or whether we should remove the links.  Nobody responded.
   
  We discussed the Spanish version of the website.  Joe is willing to work on the youth group section of the site.  The formation site is up there in duplicate.  John will contact Sr. Mary Ann Warner about whether she is comfortable with the new site.
   
  The next meeting will be November 17 at 7:30 at John Mitchell's house.
