> All,
>
> I will be working on the Plone website this weekend, and it will be
> up and down all throughout Saturday and Sunday.  I will freeze the
> content on Saturday morning (~10 AM CST), so please don't add
> anything and expect it to stick around until Sunday night.  I will
> send another message to the list when I am done.
>
> Here's a list of the improvements I hope to add:
> - Incorporate worldkit in user preferences so that users can pick
> their lat/lon with a map
> - Incorporate Plone2PDF, which allows all of the documents to be
> downloaded as a pdf with minimal styling
> - Upgrade to Plone 2.1.  Faster.  Bug fixes.  Live AJAX searches ala
> Google Live Search
> - Upgrade the Help Center ("Documentation" section) to support
> language translation
> - Folders and grouping for Gallery entries
> - Some folder permissions tweaks
> - RSS-ifying of all of the major content areas.  You will be able to
> put RSS links of sections of the website in your RSS reader and watch
> as new content is added to the site if you want.
> - Other things as necessary
> - Continue working on the "how to contribute to this website" document.
>
> We are still interested in a CSS guru who would be interested in
> styling the Plone website.  It currently is a bit stodgy and
> dull.  Anyone who is interested please contact me.
>
> Also, if anyone sees major content that exists on either the wiki or
> the "blue" website that hasn't made it to the Plone site, let me
> know.  My expectation is to have the Plone website be *the* MapServer
> website by the end of the month to coordinate with the upcoming
> MapServer 4.8 release.  The "blue" website will still exist as an
> archive, but it will not be updated in the future.
