Tasks done

• Combine Planet Laptop and Planet Sugar into one feed using Yahoo Pipes. (pipe published here)

Notes

• Drupal is currently a point release behind (6.19 vs 6.20), are we handling upgrades or is GT?
  • Some other plugins, notably Google Analytics, are currently marked "not supported", and several others have updates available

Future tasks

• Investigate the means by which we could import feeds a la planet.
  • We'll want to have a subset of Planet syndicated, subject to manual approval [medium, 3hr]

• Determine a migration path for URLs on the old blog.laptop.org instance to Drupal
  • Current URL schemes are incompatible.

• Figure out if we want to keep Wordpress for blog.l.o, and somehow integrate it with Drupal. This eliminates the above URL issue, but add new ones, namely:
  • Unify visual style. b.l.o looks decidedly un-one.l.o-like.
  • Single-user-login between Drupal and Wordpress.

• Duplicate database for www-staging if it turns out to be needed, double check this.

• Follow up on mailman migration with Ed et al. (talk with SJ/Adam re formulating specific rationale for upgrade)
