Thanks team-
I'm going to write an RFP for migration of my older site. I'll send it to the 
group if anyone is interested. I've tried twice and haven't been successful at 
getting my current database schema to match up to the newer radiant. I don't 
have a lot of older gems, but I'd like to add more when I upgrade.

Met vriendelijke groet,


Adam Waterson
Online Marketing Manager

I'm updating an old site to 1.1.1 and have a lot of older extensions that I was 
using.  If you are migrating, post the list of extensions that you were using 
and I can let you know which ones I've verified.  On the other hand, if you're 
starting out, just post in what you want to do and I can let you know if I'm 
doing something similar and what extension/ fork I'm using for it.

Best Regards,
Mohit.
