Does Drupal have tools which remind me that if a particular change happens at our organization, that I have to visit pages x, y, z, a, b, c and d to check whether changes are needed? Or that content is about to become stale or need a verb tense change?

Read moreRationale for deleting a proposed group
Hello, all,
Recently, some folks at the National Writing Project (a non-profit organization supporting teacher professional development and supporting student writing) created a group here on g.d.o --
The NWP is made up of various chapters nationwide, and many of these chapters maintain a web presence. Currently, these chapters use an array of tools, ranging from Wordpress to Wikispaces to Joomla! to, that's right, Drupal.

(even more) Advanced Cron
I've toyed with this idea for a few months..
A common problem with cron tasks in Drupal is that it is generally an all-or-nothing proposition, either every time you run cron.php the system runs every individual cron task, or (possibly for n00bs) you don't run it at all.

Hong Kong Group Administration
Posted on both the Hong Kong and g.d.o maintenance group for transparency.
I'm a member of the Hong Kong Drupal User Group (http://groups.drupal.org/hongkong) and would like to request administrative privileges for the group. Recently we've seen increased activity and I'd like to use the og_panels functionality of g.d.o to give our group a better looking front page. I've tried contacting the current group admin, but he/she has the contact form disabled.
