Read moreUK Cookie Law - are there now thousands of "illegal" Drupal 6 sites in the UK?
Drupal 6 tends to set an anonymous cookie by default. I recently did a quick check of UK sites and found many which are indeed setting cookies but don't have one of the available compliance modules installed. From my understanding of the law, the standard D6 anonymous cookie may be exempt if it could be proven that:
-
it is required for proper use of the site (probably not the case) and
-
isn't used in a way that would identify the user on returning to the site such that displayed contained would be customised for them in some way.
UK & European Council Collaboration / Follow-up to DrupalCon London Gov BoF
At the recent DrupalCon London Government BoF kindly organised by Mike Gifford I raised the point that there seems to be a growing number of councils in the UK using or looking into using Drupal however there doesn't seem to be much collaboration between neither the councils themselves or any outside suppliers who are providing them with Drupal-related services.
Read moreFeedback Request: Drupal Discovery Day Programme & New Sponsorship Structure
Today (and night it seems!) I've been setting up a copy of COD - the Conference Organising Distribution for our Drupal Discovery Day in Brighton on 16th September and working on copy for the site and promotional material. It's 1am so thought I'd post up what I've got so far before I crash for the night in case anyone wants to give any feedback. Ignore the formatting for the minute (especially seen as I can't seem to get the ULs and LIs working nicely ;) and just think about the words and the kind of people we're trying to attract to this event.
Read moreNew 'Communities of Practice' (UK public sector social site) Drupal community
For any interested UK parties, I've just created a Drupal group on Communities of Practice, a public sector social site run by the Local Government Improvement and Development (formerly IDeA, see Wikipedia) branch of the Local Government Association for general Drupal advocacy and support.
Read moreBritish English translations
I reckon Ubercart needs a British English translation, if only so we stop using string overrides on every single UC site we build for UK clients to stop them talking about 'checks'.
However, I know almost nothing about translation, either of core or contrib, and I have no idea where to start.
Do I need to register on the localization server and create a translation project node on Drupal?
And anyway, will Drupal understand a language code of the form 'en-GB'?
Regular London code sprints...?
To all London (and UK) folk,
Having just got back from a mind blowing DrupalCon Paris, we were discussing on the train back the possibility of starting a regular London based code sprint. Brightlemon would be happy to host and organise it - provide the logistics etc.
UK Handout Translations (just a personal note)
UK Handout の個人的翻訳を試みましたが、Wikiページだと分散していまひとつわかりにくいのと(いやまじめに、ここのWiki、わかりにくくありません?(^^;;)、ほかの方の素晴らしい翻訳が出ましたので、ここに自分のをまとめて置いておきます。
なにかの参考になれば幸いです。
Details of next South East UK Drupal Group meeting in Brighton - feedback pls!
Hi,
OK I've come up with a plan for meetings, please reply if this is an issue for you! I've tried to accommodate everyone's needs, including mine which is at some point to go to the Brighton Robotics meetup which is the last Thursday of the month.
So, seen as we did a Thursday last time for the workshop, I'm proposing:
2nd Thursday of each month at the West Hill just behind Brighton station, so should be easy for commuters, 6pm start.
4th Wednesday of each month at the Farm Freelancers meetup, 6pm start (Farm starts at 8pm). Usually they meet at the Hampton Arms.
