SKSI/MeetingNotes/2021-08-04 Meeting

Present: Rumanusina, Varunesh, William, Nehru, Wayne, Dave

We reviewed a temporary version of the MESC WordPress multisite on a Digital Ocean server instance, running the OERu 'recipe' (theme and plugins), including a snapshot of one OERu course for demonstration purposes.

Dave provided a demonstration of setting up a Let's Encrypt SSL certificate for that site. The demonstration was recorded: video recording.

We discussed appropriate subdomains to assign to the SKSI proposed WordPress multisites and how MESC (Nehru and William) could implement these.

We also discussed the email services used in the Samoan education system, which are all provided by Google. Dave mentioned that this service could potentially be provided for all in the Samoan education system by the same self hosted Free and Open Source Software system that the OERF uses, MailCow (and that it was also backed by a German company that could offer a managed service on its own infrastructure or provide support services for an instance run on Samoan infrastructure).
