[UCIMC-Tech] ucimc.org

[Brian Dolinar]

Thanks for fixing the pix! We need to think - and here I'm talking to
Danielle - about how CUCPJ can synchronize cucpj.org and the No More Jails
campaign with ucimc.org. I feel like we have good content out there, but
it's missing ucimc.org.

We should also talk about who else we can target to get them posting at
ucimc.org so it's not me all the time.

Anyway, thanks Chris.
