Would it be possible to get the cotemplate advertised more prominently (like as a community link on the website/in announcement posts)? I know it's not something you guys are directly involved in, but as someone who usually ends up helping work on multiple templates during the event, having (a lot of) them in one place is really helpful as a supplement to asking in matrix. The more people that know about it and use it, the better, imo.

I'm happy that my tool is useful for some, so thanks for brining it up :)

@grant@toast.ooo I would be glad if it gets more attention. The usecase described by misericordiae is exactly one I had in mind (another one is that finding free areas is less difficult with a global template). If you need any more information before linking it somewhere public, feel free to comment or DM.

could you make a post in the canvas community explaining what cotemplate is and how to use it? i'd be more than willing to pin it in the community :)

it's a very neat tool, i've added the sc07 & toast.ooo logos ✨

edit: cotemplate is now in the community links on canvas

Thought this was about the education collaboration application. I've been hanging around a couple teachers for the past couple days.

🤦

I seem to have a problem logging in. The private message with the code from auth@authfediverse.events never arrives. Last year it worked fine using this same account 🤔
