Tasks done
- Help Jared fix a botched git commit.
- Provide Adam with information on managing planet.l.o. Keep in mind at present time we still only have one person manning the planetmaster@l.o address that I know of.
- Help siteowners clean up their content for syndication.
- Rename "news summary" <http://one.laptop.org/summary/> to just "summary", and "blog" <http://one.laptop.org/news/> to "news". Make the "news" link on the top bar link to "blog"/"news" rather than "news summary"/"summary" [easy, .5hr]
- Miscl GSG fixes
Notes
- Drupal is a maze of twisty passages, all subtly different
- www-staging's admin interface is currently broken and has a security update needed. Do we still care about maintaining this? Is GT responsible for updates etc?
- Missing elements that make the site very very hard to use include: <http://www-staging.laptop.org/sites/default/files/js/js_1bbb809863cac0642b2327e031bcbf19.jsmin.js> and <http://www-staging.laptop.org/sites/default/files/css/css_378eb5dd4aab9b772744e904702acbb1.css>

Currently working on
- 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]
Future tasks
- 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.
- Color coded key for newswall.
- Duplicate database for www-staging if it turns out to be needed, double check this.
- Follow up on mailman migration with Ed et al.
