This page is to keep track of ideas and tasks for administering and maintaining the various Code4Lib sites. Also can be used for listing people involved or any progress made.

Code4Lib.org (Drupal 4)

  • Upgrade to Drupal 7
    • is it wise to attempt this before the conference?
      • Not a problem. It is fairly trivial. This was probably posted before C4L 2011 or possibly C4L 2010. We have plenty of time before C4L 2012.
    • can one go from 4 to 7 directly?
      • There are intermediate steps, which I can script, but considering the scope of the site, it might be quicker to just import it into the new version. I have done many upgrades, and don't see any issues.
  • Add plugin for managing users such as Userplus?
      • Much of what that module does in built in to Drupal 7
  • Add ReCaptcha plugin for managing spam?
    • may not be worth the setup, as spam accounts have died down and now wickr gets emails on new accounts so it's easier to watch
      • We could use that or Mollom or the local captcha module.
  • Single Sign On for other sites.
    • CAS Server? OpenID/OAuth? Something else?
      • OpenID is built in and doable. The others seem out of scope.
  • Do more with profiles or directory of people on the site
      • definitely doable

Cary Gordon (aka highermath, aka me) has proposed to do this. The site as it sits is not really secure.

Wiki (Mediawiki 1.11)

Plugins

  • Semantic MediaWiki (1.4.2)
  • ReCAPTCHA (1.7)

Planet (Planet 2.0)

  • Switch/Upgrade to Venus?
  • Once we update the website, we could roll planet into it.
