With Drupal we could have the chance for community building, meaning people could log in, and share their config files, or scripts and what not. But if the community doesn't want that, I'm fine by it. But the idea here is that anybody (with proper credentials) could add pages to the manual, and that the bug reports and feature requests could go via the website (people expect that kind of thing). But again, if you want to simply be old-fashioned (1996 anyone?) it is also possible. Personally I think it would be cool if we could have a more modern and functional website. Simple doesn't need to mean lack in functionality. > > Wolf, this would require some fussing with drupal, so if you'd rather > just use what you have up and just put in the logo, i'm fine with that > too (or even that as a first step). once we decide on a design i could > just put this together on a local drupal install and send you the > theme dir. Drupal is flexible enough to go without the blocks on the sides. --Wolf -- Wolf Bergenheim (wolf@bergenheim.net) (__) ~..~ |Use GNU! (http://www.gnu.org/) )( / .._/
