Notes on Drupal instance

• server/template performance issues
• taking and presenting submissions

    • makes more sense to open site now

Through the lists, encourage people to post project ideas on website

What kind of tools can we use to manage a large group of submitters Site scalability with more contributors Social network of people wanting to get involved with learning side of things

User submitted contributions

• scaling issues? memory.
• Image uploading: gives you a file browser with delete/move privs.

Simplicity

Helping teachers who haven't used the web much find and create materials. Examples of "how to" upload and search.

Backups

phpmyadmin for db backups. shell scripts? for template and other backups. This should be cronned somehow -- by the hosting provider? If backups are good, access to admin-group can be fluid. Access to git-commit group /really/ can be fluid [making this easy to become part of will help Drupal hackers tackle the code]

• how to keep entire instance/code in git?
• get VIG involved.
