Plan of Action

Hello all,

This is the plan I have come up with for the website.

Please understand, that the following points are all in order of priority (as I see them).

  • Decide on a Content Management System everyone on the team is comfortable with using
  • Transfer existing website at SourceForge to the PCGen test site. Ensure look and feel is kept and accessibility tests pass
  • Update/Create FAQ's and Tutorials, including how to administer various aspects of the CMS (including the forums and mail-to-web system - see below)
  • Create a "developers only" section of the website that developers only have access to
  • Install Wiki software, and transfer PCGen Wiki from Sourceforge website
  • Update Wiki information
  • Choose a forum solution that everyone is comfortable with
  • Integrate Forum into website, matching PCGen look and feel
  • Create developers section in the wiki
  • Create/install tracker system for bugs/features/etc
  • Create/Install a mail-to-web solution for the forum
  • Ensure all aspects of website are kept up-to-date

Comments and suggestions welcome.

Anestis.

Tasks

Investigating the feasibility of integration a mailing list and forums in [Drupal]

Interesting Drupal Modules

Mailhandler

The Mailhandler module allows registered users to create or edit nodes and comments via email.

Listhandler

Listhandler is a module that aims at inserting mailing list discussions in Drupal forum and vice versa. Currently there's no release for Drupal 6.x

Mailman Manager

This module provides an interface through which users can subscribe to mailing lists run by Mailman.

Book

Module that can be used to write online books. Could be useful for the Documentation team. See Dojo Ajax Toolkit for an example.

PdfView

Allows Drupal Nodes to be exported to PDF. Might be useful for the documentation

Ohloh

Integrates Ohloh stats into Drupal user profiles.
