Sounds like you have an ideal framework set up already, we were
looking into drupel anyway. If we can get the login stuff, abstract
the cal for a front page (doesn't strike me as hard using rss) and
make sure all the interesting stuff is designed right I can see it
being a very useful starting point. I always thought of the fridge as
an inta-loco communication type site.

I'd like to know what other LoCo people feel about going down this
route, thanks for adding the fridge mailing list too.
