<div style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">Stephen Wills has made a proposal for getting the bulk of the content from the old site into the new site. He suggested writing an extraction tool that will parse the checked in PHP and produce raw Drupal nodes in XML format that we can batch load into the demo. He uses similar techniques to move content around the Computerworld and sister sites at his place of work. Using this technique will eliminate the initial need for developing more content target lists and whipping up the volunteers to cut and paste that content onto the site.</div>

Once that is done, hopefully by next month, the Web Team can take another look at the site and see what is still skin and bone and put out a call for help in specific content sections.</div><div style="color:rgb(34,34,34);font-family:arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255)">
