[Ubuntu-be] Getting a new Website

[Pierre Buyle]

Hi,

I summarized what has been told on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/BelgianTeam/2008/OneDayDrupalSprint, feel free
to complete and fix. To choose a date, I created a Doodle (like Mark
did for the winter kickoff meeting) at
http://doodle.ch/bsmpxh6fvr2ae6dv

If I didn't make any mistake we are four but we lack some Drupal
module and customization and content writing skills.

Drupal customization is needed to use Drupal as back-end for the
support points map. There is two "customization" that are needed. We
should find the way to store "supporters profile information" (see
current support points map at http://map.ubuntu.be for what's in it)
in Drupal user profile. For this I know there is a Drupal module that
can be used to attach CCK nodes to users. But maybe there is a better
solution (I don't know Drupal very much). We will also need a way to
search this information. For end-used through a nice Web UI. From the
JavaScript through a JSON or XML API. I've no idea how we could do
this second part with Drupal.

But the most important (but less fun to me) is the get an updated
working website. Using it as support points map back-end would make a
nice bonus.
