So, enough people have emailed me directly to ask when the next meeting is....to probably think about planning the next meeting :P

Next Thursday sounds like a good date. Any objections?

Topics? Questions?

BTW, if you're interested in some of the history of the PHP language, check out this <A href="http://www.twit.tv/floss12>interview with its creator, Rasmus Lerdorf @ TWiT.tv. Special quiz: how many of the websites mentioned have something to do with Drupal.

I'd like to know more about multisite best practices for sure -- could share my few experiences with it. Also about how people manage dev/staging/production environments... synch their db's, etc.

Other topics I'd like to hear about:

  • project module... or any recommendations on managing/assigning tasks within Drupal... i.e. how can content editors communicate and collaborate in the creation of content, behind the scenes
  • more views tips and tricks... examples
  • 4.8 release
  • writing TinyMCE plugins... or other ways of interacting with content as the user is editing it. Think of the Google toolbar spell checker... how would one implement similar functionality in TinyMCE (or a plain text area)?. I'd like to create a contextual, right-click keyword suggestion tool
  • using Drupal as a wiki
  • how to build an FAQ-style page with a TOC at the top that links to anchor tags on the same page

Question about anchor tags in Drupal

Hi, i saw yr question about inserting anchor tags in Drupal. I'm a new employee at a firm in Austin, TX, not exactly
a techie, more a content editor, but want to insert anchor tags to link to sections of same page, but our content mgt system messes with the tags I insert. Since yrs was the only thing I could find online mentioning drupal and anchor tags I thought I'd ask if you ever got that figured out and if you might help provide me with info on how to do it?

Are you guys interested in form API news for 4.8 ? It would be a real exclusive, patches are getting in during the next few days.

Yes

anyone know a way to classify comments with taxonomy? or make comments into nodes?

I know this comes up from time to time on drupal.org... just wondered if anyone local has ever come across this.

Yes and no

James is going to give his "no, everything does NOT have to be a node" discussion.

Allowing comments to be classified would mean a module, but it wouldn't be that hard: a joiner table between term IDs and comment IDs.
