Playing around with the Calendar Plug-In, I did some quick edits on the home page to make a Calendar appear. No snarky comments on the artistry, please.

Additional information on the above plugins are available in the
http://wiki3.gnhlug.org/twiki3/bin/view/TWiki/WebHome topic, under the
"*Help on Installed Plugins*" section.

The following requested plugins were NOT installed:

~    * AlbumOfSnapsPlugin: Not compatible w/current plugin methods
~    * ChartPlugin: Partially installed; required GD perl library,
~      which I'm having problems getting to work.
~    * CounterPlugin: Doesn't follow TWiki plugin standards
~    * Edit*Plugin: Superceded by EditTablePlugin
~    * GaugePlugin: Partially installed, but needs the pesky GD perl
~      library.
~    * GoogleSearchPlugin: Not compatible w/TWiki plugin methods.
~    * GuestBookPlugin: Missing kit file.
~    * HolidayListPlugin: Installed but probably won't work due to
~      conflicting HTML::Entities packages on the system.
~    * ImageGalleryPlugin: I can't get the required Image::Magick
~      module to install on the system.
~    * ImmediateNotifyPlugin: Requires Jabber perl module and patches
~      to base TWiki system.
~ * MailReminderPlugin: Requires SendEasy perl package and a database
~    * MessageBoardPlugin: Requires a database.
~    * TocPlugin: Functions superceded by more recent TWiki release.
~    * VotePlugin: Broken by TWiki security patches.
~    * WyswygPlugin: Requires conflicting perl packages.

In the above, those plugins requiring more Perl packages may
eventually get installed - depending on actual need, and my ability to
weed through the various perls on the host system.

Those requiring just a database have a better chance of getting
installed - but again depend on actual need.

Those not following TWiki Plugin standards need additional eyeballs
watching the installation process. Essentially, they didn't install
for various reasons, so I just moved to the next package.

All in all, I think we have enough plugins to keep us busy for a while.

Let me know when you want it switched to be the primary wiki for the
site. Note that I haven't been tracking content added to the old Wiki
- - we can do that when we "throw the switch" to make wiki3 the primary
site.
