Hello, The meeting lasted for nearly 1hr and 30mins. Below are the main conclusion/points of the meeting, also there are few things which still need to be discussed and the opinion of the iLug-cal members is solicited on them.
1. Sayamindu somewhere within Tuesday will email Surendra Singhi and Anirban Biswas, the db dump of the current website. It is currently very heavily infested with spam, and Surendra Singhi and Anirban Biswas, either by some automated means or manually, try to clean it up. Question to the members: In case, cleaning up the db is not feasible, what should be done? Prashant Verma suggested starting *afresh*. Gmane already has an archive of the mailing list. If the DB contains some older mails should, his proposal be accepted? 2. Anirban Biswas will try integrating User.module with the latest version of Drupal. Since, he is already occupied with cleaning the DB, if other developers want to contribute/help/hack, they are welcome. Anirban Biswas and Sayamindu can clarify further questions on this. 3. Once item [1] is resolved, Sayamindu will take care of updating to the latest version of Drupal on the web-server. In case some server settings need to be changed Sayamindu will communicate with Russell McOrmond and fix that. 4. Sayamindu will create Drupal admin user accounts, and content contributor account for the following people: 1. Soumyadip Modak (admin) 2. Surendra Singhi (admin) 3. J. P. Mathew 4. A. Mani 5. Anirban Biswas 5. In case, iLug-cal wants to control the ftp access to the web-server, then Russell McOrmond should be contacted for that. Right now, Sayamindu is the only person who has this control, and he is not authorized to give the right. For members (reading between the lines): I don't know exactly what where the reasons behind registering www.ilug-cal.info , but if the members of iLug-cal feel (which IMO they should) that iLug-cal should have this power of controlling the ftp access to the site, and also the domain, then Russell McOrmond should be contacted. I will suggest that some senior member of iLug-cal contacting him, and then getting the power to deputize or controlling the web server space and the domain. Or getting the power of deputizing for Sayamindu (if he agrees). 6. Also, get a mailing list setup for discussing issues related to the website maintenance. Sayamindu, will take care of this. If I misconstrued something discussed in the meeting, or if I missed some point, then please post it as a followup. Thanks. -- Surendra Singhi http://ssinghi.kreeti.com, http://www.kreeti.com -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
