The committee has met
The minutes of the previous meeting were approved and apologies for absence noted
The principal item for discussion was future meeting and challenges.

Only joking, but here is the proposal I think we did discuss on Sunday night.

Regular bi-monthly meetings on the 3rd Sunday of the month at 7.30 in the Showroom cafe.
Ad-hoc meetings to be called when there is something going on.

So what it looks like is:

2006 Challenge 2: Democratic Sheffield
Any photos
Come and discuss the entries on Sunday 21 May

2006 Challenge 3: Student Sheffield
Photos of people only
Come and discuss the entries on Sunday 16 July

2006 Challenge 4: Sheffield Water
Waterways and resevoirs
No fountains or balls
Come and discuss the entries on Sunday 17 September

2006 Challenge 5: My Sheffield
Any photos with explanatory text
Come and discuss the entries on Sunday 19 November

2006 Challenge 6: Stubbs Photojournalism Prize
Any photos
Come and discuss the entries on Sunday 21 January 2007

Entries to posted in the thread for each challenge. All challenges are open now and close on the day of the discussion.

Don't worry - I think (hope) TT means work in the artistic sense, rather than toil! A

StubbsUK says:

Would it be a good idea to come up with a short tag we could add to photos to identify their entry into a contest?

We could have something like "Sheffield Challenge 2006 #2" but there is too much room to mistype it, so I was thinking more of something short, and easy to figure out, "shch0602" would be my buest guess, any other suggestions?

The main reason for doing this is it makes displaying all the entries on external websites like the blog easier.

Good idea Stubbs, could we not make it even simpler, say "Sh62"?

could do, the 0602 came from IT background and wanting to keep the length of the strings the same size :-)

Of course, in the year 3006 we'll have to come up with a new tagging scheme, but it wont be in use by then.

And the "ch" lets us use a similar tagging system for other stuff, like the Guess Where's for example could be "shgw" etc etc.

(and with that I've ensured my place in history when 1000 years from now the Sheffield Flickr group suffers it's very own Y3K problem)

I'd be worried in 2106 myself, if I was alive then of course!

Totally agree it's the right thing to do to keep the strings the same length though.

Thanks for doing this TT. I'd better make sure I'm in Sheffield for more than 10 minutes in the next few months.
