This is a list of all the related resources/links that were mentioned during this month's meetup.
Mark showed the use of taxonomy access control on the XPrize website. Below is the link to the lullabot article on using taxonomy access modules to control permissions for node creation.

Re: Blog post regarding different wysiwyg editors
chx just posted an announcement, "jQuery WYSIWYG editor for Drupal released." The WYSIWYG editor is HTMLBox.

If you make money creating Drupal websites, it may make sense for you to check out (and chime in) about Drupal wysiwyg editors here:

Bitnami - Drupal packages ready to go
http://bitnami.org - grab OS specific installers for Drupal and other open-source projects.
NOTE: If you run WAMP/MAMP/XAMP/XAMPP, etc. already, then I wouldn't recommend installing any BitNami package without reading how to not mess up your current local dev environment(s).

NicEdit and DrupalEd and maintenance mode
NicEdit is a WYSIWYG editor that works with both D5 and D6. I like it because it's only 35k in size (compared with FCKeditor at 250k and TinyMCE at 400k).
http://drupal.org/project/nicedit
I think TinyMCE still has the most going for it, though, in terms of popularity (i.e. community support), configurability and advanced image management. There's also a cool TinyMCE Automatic Configuration module:
http://drupal.org/project/tinymce_autoconf
DrupalEd is a distribution of Drupal that's geared towards educational sites with working groups, online courseware, etc. and it includes a bunch of modules that you'd otherwise need to research, download and install yourself. An older list of included modules can be found at http://drupal.org/node/137745#comment-223736 but there may have been changes since DrupalEd was originally released.

Finally, don't forget that if you put your site in maintenance mode (or otherwise hide your User login block -- thanks, Crystal!) and then realize that there's no obvious way to log in again, you can still log in as an administrator by manually going to http://example.com/user (or http://example.com/?q=user if you don't have Clean URLs enabled). This is one of the most common support requests I see in the forums.
