Good evening Ubuntu-AU'ers,

I have a thought on the duplication of work across the different
communication methods we have for our team. Would anyone object to not
even running an events module on the main website (www.ubuntu.org.au)
and just providing an "events" button that is a direct link to the
loco.u.c site (http://loco.ubuntu.com/teams/ubuntu-au) where it lists
all upcoming events and meetings anyway? We could add the RSS feed
from the loco.u.c site to the page as well so it will grab the details
of events as they're added and publish it to the website so that it
still acts as a sounding board for that aspect of the team.

This would be the simplest solution which in my experience is often
the best but I wanted to make sure this is an acceptable solution to
the team.
