Thanks for the site :)
It might be a good idea to move to Drupal 6 as soon as possible, before you depend on too many Drupal 5 only modules. Clean URLs would be nice.
Most important (for me) is to have OpenID login. It's standard in Drupal 6 and comes as a 3rd party module for Drupal 5.
Other than that, I haven't spent much time around yet. Perhaps setup some kind of wiki features to let anyone edit a class of pages.
re: a few ideas
By John GeraciHey millette - all good ideas, thanks. I'm still a total newbie to Drupal, just learning my way around it, I'll look into these. OpenID in particular would be cool to have.
One hitch is that I am spending all of my DIYcity time right now organizing meetings, answering emails, talking to people, etc., and I have no time left over to tend to things like making Clean URLs work. Or when I do, all of those other things fall off my plate entirely.
If anyone reading wants to help work on the site in any capacity, let me know and I'd be happy to bring you into the loop and we can work on it together.
comments
By dpkIt looks like comments aren't enabled on most posts?
comments not enabled?
By John Geracidpk - could you point me to an example? I believe comments are enabled everywhere, but I could be mistaken.
Also, if people can't figure out the commenting, that's a problem in and of itself.
Soon there will be email response available for all of the discussion groups, so you'll be able to reply from your email app.
