Brilliant! I think that drupal is the better choice for community based websites. I think what you have accomplished so far is great. :) <div><span class="e" id="q_1110f83f3ca02bb9_1"><br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">

<br>> 2 and then it can be integrated into Drupal.<br>> *Outside of the Wiki link itself, I'm thinking we should move all<br>> those pages from the wiki (Download, Themes etc) to the drupal site.<br>> This will keep the theme and such consistent to casual browsers.

<br>> same people (you all) editing those wiki pages can edit the drupal
<br>> site pages.<br>> *There is a module to integrate with SMF (our forum). I don't think<br>> there's much point in having users logged into our Drupal site though<br>> and it would just screw up the cache system.
<br>> *We could replace S9Y blogs with Drupal as well.<br>><br>> Another WIP if we care:<br>> To import the news items from Mambo I actually just ran some SQL<br>> queries, its not a proper script. So images didn't transfer over
<br>> automatically. I only transfered over all the news for the sake of<br>> history. Obviously the release images are a part of that history...<br>> but maybe something <a href="http://archive.org" target="_blank" onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)">
archive.org</a>
has hopefully taken care of.<br>><br>> This is obviously going to take a bit of work, but I think it will all<br>> pay off in the end.<br><br><br>Looks fantastic so far, and i'd be around to help you with it!
