A shorter, public version of our as-yet-untested events procedure

A shorter, public version of our as-yet-untested events procedure

1. Join us in the **#organizing** channel in [our Slack workspace](slack.md). Start a conversation along the lines of "I'm thinking about XYZ," and get a discussion going about what shape the event could take.
1. Fill out the [event proposal form](https://forms.gle/ymyPXJkn8MbThadZA) here with some details of what you're thinking about, or make a post in the **#organizing** channel in [our Slack workspace](slack.md) with the same information. This does not have to be a complete plan! Just the seed of an idea is great - we are happy to help you expand on it.

I'm not sure we all wanted to go with the form. One the one hand it could seem like paperwork, I guess on the other, it's intimidating to walk cold into a Slack channel where others are watching.

1. Stay active in the discussions that happen in Slack. We plan collaboratively. Others will have helpful ideas or tips to make the event successful.
2. Take ownership of your idea. You're the one with the vision! We will help you get there.

I don't know what people will think "Take ownership" means.

3. You don't need to stick to the types of events that we currently run (e.g., Presentation Nights). We have a broad user base, and variety helps us reach more of them.
