Translation
Drupal is based on "everything is English". We would prefer keyword-based translations. A solution would be creating another language: "real English" or something and rename "English" to "coder English" or "Drupal English".
Drupal can't show translation links, but it might be possible to create a module for that.
Deployment
- Deployment strategies. We want to have as much as possible to be code-based, but some modules really love the database and auto-increment.
Performance
- Page load speed
- Scalability
People
- guaka
- lemonhead
- Robin
Come work together on the 4th and 5th of December in Antwerpen.
Code driven development
- Features module for exporting stuff that lives in db into code
- Context module: works with features
- custom modules
- sites/all/modules/custom
- but we want to stick with mainstream modules as much as possible
Drupal 7
We have chosen to start right away with Drupal 7.
Con
- Many modules aren't ready yet.
- There are still some bugs.
Pro
- No need to upgrade to D7 ;)
- D7 has many good things in core that we want (such as user fields)
