Please, do try. :) We need tough marking (as in football) and betatesters with an interest of having a cool and efficient GUADEC site, but also (or mainly) with a wider scope on gnome.org's needs and possible evolution. I will suggest to move forward with the drupalisation process once guadec.org is a stable website from a technical perspective and the community dynamics happening in it are kind of stable as well. One possible step is to coordinate/integrate tables and data with anothe GNOME website based on Drupal, http://gnomedesktop.org - currently out of the GNOME servers although it was somehow decided time ago that it should become the official news site and be hosted in the official servers (I was told). Another possible step is to drupalise foundation.gnome.org since a lot was discussed about managing better our users (members, friends, press...) and the strongest solution at the end of the (seurely unconcluded) discussion was Luis Villa's suggestion of using CivicCRM, a Drupal module. Donations can also be handled via Drupal, like the rest of features currently present in the Foundation subsite. So it looks like a feasible plan to develop. Another possible step is to amplify guadec.org to events.gnome.org, covering areas that gnome.org are not currently covering in a proper way. More: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-web-list/2005-November/msg00026.html Once these steps are consolidated I hope... we will have probably had concentrated enough consensus and expertise to migrate the gnome.org revamp to this Drupal multisite - affecting this migration only to the current static pages, not to live, bugzilla and other subdomains covered by other specialzed applications. Basically the plan would be to migrate to Drupal anything based on static pages now in order to ease its administration and updates, plus opening them to community dynamics and improving our registered users base the users' management. I hope this seems to you a good plan to try. :) -- Quim Gil - http://desdeamericaconamor.org
