February was a very busy and eventful month. I made several major announcements, and the month ends with a lot more things on my todo list than were there at the beginning. Some highlights:
- Announced the Baseball Research Journal Archives.
- Announced to chapter and committee leaders that group web sites are available in-house now.
- Installed time-tracking software to analyze how I spend my day
- Copied the experiemental journal archive site to our server, set it up and made it suitable for public access, then announced it to the membership
- Recruited members to help proofread the BRJ archives and set up a workspace for them
- Prepared a plan for a wiki-based encyclopedia, presented it to the board, and they approved it
- Developed a draft technology plan, also presented to the board
- Converted the content of two non-SABR sites to run on our server
- Set up OCR software to experiment with community prooferading in future digitization.
Coming up in March:
- Beginning the process of developing the encyclopedia (this won't be visible)
- At least one or two new chapter/committee sites
- A re-organization of the main SABR website
