G'day all, After months of planning, hacking and setbacks, we've just made the shift over to the new Drupal-based SLUG website.
The biggest improvements are event management, working iCal/RSS feeds, and a working user privilege system. However, the new site is in need of some love with URLs, content, and theming. The old site has been moved to beta.slug.org.au, and will require some of the static content to be moved over. We want to preserve our urls to keep our Google juice, so it'll require a bit of mod_rewrite work. We also need a new website theme. We're using the phptemplate theming engine, so if you've got some mad theming skills we'd love to see what you can come up with. More information on this will be posted in the next day. If you are an organiser of events and such, you'll be able add your events to the website yourself. Taking the committee out of the announcement loop will help get your event advertised sooner! The iCal feed for events can be found at http://slug.org.au/event/ical. If you want to help out with any of the things above, or start posting your own SLUG-related events, you can give the committee a buzz at [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cheers, Lindsay -- http://slug.org.au/ http://lca2007.linux.org.au/ http://holmwood.id.au/~lindsay/ -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
