ITNow

Feel free to edit !

It is very different if we focus on «a website» or «a collection of services».

Remember : http://pirateparty.be/crew-message-general-assembly-28th-march-2015

Take IT easy.

Focus on what is «working now». The language (fr/nl/de) efforts will be naturally distributed through the different «channels». More «pirates/diy» way.

• Facebook page(s)
• Twitter account(s)
• Mailchimp or other Newsletter tool(s) (maybe less necessary if the other channels are «alive»)
• Current Wiki
• And off course a website we can consider as a vitrine with some news and links to the different «channels».

Do IT yourself.

Focus on what we would like to do «in a long term». The language (fr/nl/de) efforts must be kept in mind along all those process. More «centralized» way.

• Define a Single Sign On strategy (Maybe OAUTH and LDAP)
• Define the services we want to provide.
• Set up the host(s)
• Set up the service(s)
• Think about disaster recovery plan(s)

Same goals.

• Tell the world that we are alive.
• Invite the world to share our ideas and and help us to reach goals.
• Invite the world to vote for some enventual candidates on election days (if we do have candidates).
• Empower the world using different channels.
• Provide some «Belgian centralized views» of our activities.
• Allow the world to give us money or join Crews and Squads.

A new CMS for a New website ?

If we are going to work on a refresh/replacement of the current website.

Wordpress

• Must Have Plugins : http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/20-must-have-wordpress-plugins-for-2015-expert-pick/
• WP To Drupal : https://www.drupal.org/node/43178

Drupal

I just have had installed Drupal and it seems far less intuitive than Wordpress. Powerfull maybe ... but harder to handle.

• Must Have Addons : http://www.vmdoh.com/blog/12-drupal-7-modules-you-absolutely-must-have
• Drupal To WP : https://wordpress.org/plugins/cms2cms-automated-drupal-to-wp-migration/
• Upgrade from 7 to 8 : https://www.drupal.org/node/2257723

What maybe the «cost» to keep what is running now on the current Drupal 7? Like how much time do we need to improve instead of replace?

Other suggestions

• Joomla
• Spip
