[bikeqld] Mailing list name (and purpose)

[Yani]

Humm I didn't mean to reply off list. 

 

"No, this is the Bikeqld where you can go feral ;)"

 

YES we have had great discussions of many topics. To me at least it's feels
like a group that can discuss any issue with good reasoning. I like that!

 

http://www.melbournecyclist.com/ that looks like a CMS (Content Management
System) I can't pick which one from the code.

I'd say... just use Drupal. If you use Drupal I can give you a hand as I
know it inside out. It's about as good as they get.

Some CMSes are worth the effort to learn others just aren't worth any
effort.

 

Obama used Drupal, Sony use it... it's got a big following. Something like
500,000 sites. 1,000+ plug-in modules.

 

I have a site I'm working on for a mate using Drupal http://handfoto.com
<http://handfoto.com/> 

And a uni report of about 8,000 words on why which is 80% finished which you
can have a look at.

 

Drupal will integrate the existing wiki. 

 

I think you hit a nail on the head with that line Pete.

'go feral' good USP.

Not that we are at all feral, (mind you I could use a shave) but a USP that
indicates independence and chaotic style works. Something that says you
don't have to agree to discuss. 'go feral' makes no promise at all. 

 

Let BQ be a 'teacher's training school' for cycling etiquette and take
themselves seriously.  

 

And you can change a USP if the mood of the group changes.

Mediawiki auth bridge

By anarcat on the 1st of April, 2009

 

This module provides single sign-in and user database integration for
MediaWiki as slave of Drupal. It is set up so that users sign in to the
Drupal site, and as a result they automatically become logged in to the
wiki. User entries are still created in the wiki's user table and are kept
up to date on each login with email and real name. This does not include
content exchange or wiki parsing, for that, see the Mediawiki module.

 

Anyway that should give you something to think about.
