What about removing the News and Announcements section off the Wiki? Real 
news and announcements should go on http://ubuntu-ca.org/news? The current 
entries are outdated anyways. I think I'll just do it. We can always add the 
section back. With the concept of a static frontpage any replacement would 
go off of CanadianTeam Initiatives or some other linked page. anyways.

Who has author access to http://ubuntu-ca.org/? Can we just e-mail someone 
to submit news worthy items? I don't have one right now, just wondering what 
the process is.

On our Community page: http://ubuntu-ca.org/frontdir/community.html It still 
mentions e-mail someone to get added to announcements. Should this change to 
signup on our mailing list ubuntu-ca at
lists.ubuntu.com<http://lists.ubuntu.com>or something like that? Who
can change that? Oh, and the contact page says
the same thing.

I like the idea of using a bilingual frontpage and then directing based on 
language preference, en or fr. Maybe set a cookie so the decision only has 
to be made once? 

I just checked out the wiki and I agree the 2 languages on the same page 
makes for an uneasy read. A parallel linked page would probably be easier. 
The two versions of the page could link to each other, french to english, 
and english to french.

I have update CanadianTeamInitiatives to give it more structure and added my 
one initiative as a linked item from that page. That should make it easier 
to start using the CanadianTeamInitiatives as our starting point for 
editable content. Let me know, or feel free to change it if you don't like 
it :-).
