Welcome
Kendraio
This group is specifically for organising, planning and working on Drupal projects being fostered by Kendraio - starting with Kendra Hub and Kendra Signpost. These projects all aim to make it easier for artists and content owners to distribute their content and are related to media, metadata, syndication, semantic web and search. Kendraio (partly funded by the EU via P2P-Next and Saracen but mostly voluntary non-profit organisation) is building all new projects using Drupal and all projects are free and open source. For general discussion about Kendraio please refer to the lists section on the main website. This group is for discussions that relate only to Drupal projects fostered by Kendraio.
Please no job posts here. Use Drupal Jobs. Thanks.

Read moreImporting Facebook groups wholesale into Drupal Organic Groups?
I'm wondering if anyone has done any work on importing Facebook groups wholesale into Drupal Organic Groups? I know we can export all the data from a Facebook group using the Facebook API. I guess the main task is to how to map Facebook comments (with revisions?), users, events and pages to a local Drupal instance. I guess make placeholders for these Facebook objects and allow these to be acquired retrospectively? Any ideas? Any projects with similar aims?

Mission
- The goal of the Drupal Social Initiative (Social API) is to harmonise Social Networking functionality in Drupal; provide more functionality to end-users; provide easier site creation and configuration to site administrators and developers; and enable easier module maintenance for developers.
- Add more ideas...
Objectives
- Provide a common interface to access common functions across multiple social networks. Making it easier for:
- Developers to create and maintain social network integration modules.
- Site builders to utilise social network integration modules that harmoniously work together.
- Users to access social networks functionality.
- Let's work on clarifying these objectives over the next few weeks leading up to the Abstracting Social Networking functionality in Drupal sprint.
- There are numerous modules for Drupal social networking integration.
- Connecting with other networks
- Pulling in content
- Pushing out content
- What else?

Read moreFederated Social Web Summit 2011
I would like to invite you to join us for the upcoming Federated Social Web Summit 2011 - June 3-5 20 in Berlin
http://d-cent.org/fsw2011/
Goals and Scope: This workshop intends to bring together communities building federated social networking code-bases with those involved in privacy and identity. It will be the second conference, following up on the original Federated Social Web Summit in Portland in 2010, but now with a focus on privacy protection in the social web and the cloud. As it is a W3C Workshop, it will have one day for position papers and discussion. To continue the tradition of the Federated Social Web Summit in Portland in 2010 and attract more developers, the summit will also have a open-space, including opportunities for collaborative coding and open talks, for an entire day. [*]
And also consider joining W3C Federated Social Web Incubator Group (soon changing into community group)

Importing and round-tripping RDF in Drupal
Importing catalogues
We need to import arbritary catalogues (spreadsheets) into RDFable Drupal nodes.
We suggest the following as a way forward: before implementing this, we want to see if this would be useful to the broader Drupal RDF community, and whether it is compatible with other existing proposals:
Option 1: Dynamically create content types
For each import format dynamically create a node type that matches the field structure. Provide an RDF mapping for the created node type to enable the imported items to be tagged up with RDF.
Option 2: Define a generic content type for imports
Spreadsheets are imported into two node types. The 'header' includes the spreadsheet file and information about it's structure. A second content type is used to import each row. A row is a list of attributes taken from the column data for that row.
We also need to consider round-tripping issues, as follows:
