Hi,
I would like to draw fellow developers -- and even more importantly,
reviewers -- attention to http://drupal.org/node/67349 : SQLite port.
Already someone tested with a NAS and apparently this would let us Drupal
run on sub-$100 devices, like Linksys NSLU2 .
The possibilites this opens are simply mind boggling: for example, it
would be possible for Drupal to run literally out of the box -- you unpack
the box, plug in power and Ethernet and you have your own CMS. It will be
slower than your eight core server in the datacenter, yes, but if Nokia
thinks it's a good idea to develop a web server with mod_python for some
of their phones
http://research.nokia.com/research/projects/mobile-web-server/phone-softwar…
then surely there is some good in this.
Regards
NK
Hi,
according to this page: http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_dhtml
Taxonomy DHTML need new maintainer. I am willing to give this module
some because i need it on many projects. The first task would obviously
be to release 5.x version of the module and then try to commit some
patches in queue.
Can I be the new maintainer?
Thanks,
Jakub

This looks to be a very interesting project. The solution is very close to my own hacked version of i18n. I will be starting a new job where this module will come in handy as we will be using Drupal in a half dozen languages. Although 5.0 is not on the table yet I am going to join your group, keep an eye on things and help out where possible to stimulate some activity in talking about i18n solutions.

Subject: [development] Multilingual support
Hi.
I'm the author of Localizer, a module alternative to Internationalization,
that adds multilingual support to Drupal.
For whom interested in details of my module here
there are some links :
Project page : http://drupal.org/project/localizer
Project issues : http://drupal.org/project/issues/localizer
Manual, written by a friend, Edward : http://drupal.org/node/103419
(and we are working on a multilingual manual too)
I have joined months ago the groups to add multilingual support
to Drupal core : http://groups.drupal.org/i18n,
where I have posted also my ideas and my proposals.
I had joined also the mailing list activated by DevelopmentSeed :
http://devseeddev.com/pipermail/internationalization_devseeddev.com/
But, unfortunately, it seems to me that there is not much activity on these
communications channels.
Reading this post http://groups.drupal.org/node/2781
and taking a look at the Subversion repository here :
http://svn3.cvsdude.com/devseed/sandbox
it seems to me that some crucial decisions about multingual
support in Drupal are already taken, or am I wrong ?
For example, if I understand correctly, taxonomy translations
will be implemented duplicating the trees, variables will
be duplicated in their own table adding a language attribute.
Well, I would like to know what is, if exists, the list of features
that will be implemented in Drupal 6 to achieve multilingual support,
and also the technical solutions that could be adopted.
For example, if the variables translation mechanism is definitive,
we could think to use it soon, without working now on a different
solution that could be abandoned in the next months.
For taxonomy we could already port the new patches for the
translation, and so on.
I'm asking this because I would like, if possible, to avoid duplicating
work and to be able to prepare a migration path for the users
of Localizer when multilingual support will be in the core, probably,
in the next release.
As you can see in the issue lists of Localizer, we are working hard and
there are
some good requests by the users.
I wonder if something of all this already done work can be used, at
least as logic or idea if not as code.
Many thanks.
Roberto.

There is an issue open on hosting installation profiles on d.o that
is assigned to dww (http://drupal.org/node/113939) But, it has had
little action since he went on vacation.
I popped over to the distributions group and found it fairly
inactive. Though, I'll admit I have not ben part of the solution and
have been waiting d.o to host the profiles before I get rolling on my
own.
Since there is no central place to list install profiles I created a
wiki page in the g.d.o distributions group for a list at http://
groups.drupal.org/node/2826. If you have one please list it. Let's
see how many are out there.

Hi,
If trees, graphs and other algorithms are familiar for you then please
contact me (maybe off list) I have some performance-related problems to
discuss regarding the navigation block.

I just noticed while trying to update a module to Drupal 5 that I have to:
empty the cache table(normal)
empty the menu table( not all the time but sometimes)
deactivate and re-activate the module(all the time)
Otherwise if a path is changed in the menu, even a valid path, Drupal 5 throws a "page not found"
Is this the latest rage and status qou or can it be be avoided? Things go very slowly doing it this way.

Hello I am new to Drupal and am currently running a site and I'd like
to adjust a few things in my layout. Specifically I added a CCK Link
field to the story content type. I have disabled the Link Title as I
only want to input the link. However on the display pages I would like
to have the same link name use all the time. For example right now I
have the following displaying
Node Title
Taxonomy terms
<a href="http://www.something.com">http://www.something.com</a>
What I would like to do is:
Node Title
Taxonomy Terms
<a href="http://www.something.com">Watch this! </a>
Hopefully you understand what I mean. I just want the output to be in
the href="" and then use the Watch this! as my default instead of the
actual link. I've looked at a few posts but just can't seem to grasp
what I need to do. That and I have very minimal php experience.
(former coldfusion programmer) Thanks in advance

Hello world,
I just committed the l() and url() refactor patch at http://
drupal.org/node/111347. We'll want to document this change in the
handbook's upgrade instructions, and fine-tune the PHPDoc comments if
necessary.

"The node_get_names() function no longer exists. Please use node_get_types('name', $node) instead. Similarly, the node_get_base() function no longer exists. Please use node_get_types('module', $node) instead."
Which did not apply to my situation since it was already there in the code. In the api there is no mention of a change in the functions behavior either. Previously I was getting the right behaviour by just calling the function without the parameters. I was confused by the explicit call to 'names' or 'types' when I need both in the same call. I was used to node_get_types() in 4.7 then the behaviour that has
changed with no mention of how to accomplish the same. I know someone else will want to do this and may be confused as I was, hence my post.

The process of updating your modules will be easier with this reference:
http://drupal.org/node/64279
node_get_types changes are covered there as well.
