Contributing

if you spend a day creating a Drupal site, spend one hour on reviewing patches related to the functionality you just touched be it contrib or core.

So says chx.

Is iGoogle so pathetic it doesn't generate an RSS feed?

This is a service that lives by RSS feeds, and it doesn't provide one of its own?

I don't use iGoogle myself. I must be missing something?

Ask Agaric: Magic copy non-Drupal tab with content to Drupal? No

What's the easiest way to get content from the IBO to the MCJ website? You showed me how to add tabs, but if I wanted to essentially copy and paste the "Projects" tab (Kenya, Nigieria, etc) onto a tab to be created on MCJ, is that something I could do with my god-like powers, or is this something that either needs to be done by you (or is easier for you to do) when the website changes hands?

I'm sure I'll have more questions soon-ish.

On the value of automatic messages that gather data to define themselves

So you don't look as silly as this:

[Error message] Files with the extension mp4 are not allowed. Please upload a file with an extension from the following list: avi mpg ogg wmv mov. [/Error message]

Please use the form below to upload your video to LivingConversations. This site accepts many file formats, including .avi, .mpg, .mp4, .wmv, mov, and .flv, but files must not exceed 100 MB.

Overriding Nice Menus CSS the Agaric Way

Technically, this is overriding Nice menus the Nice menus way...

I pulled all nice menu css out of style.css and put it in nice_menus_custom.css and set this theme path so it overrides modules/nice_menus_default.css by entering the new path at the top of admin/themes/settings

Problems with work for hire in software development

This is a /proprietary/ developer explaining why work for hire doesn't work:

My take is that software development is not a linear process, it's an iterative process. Therefore in everything I create there tends to be bits of things that I've created in the past for other clients. Given this situation selling my code to a client isn't really a tenable situation. For me to do that I'd either have to eventually go out of business because I wouldn't have any unique code to sell after a while, or lie to my clients. Neither is attractive.

Ask Agaric: Title-only feeds with core Drupal Aggregator

Ben, can you also tell [...] how to get the RSS feed sources out of the feed. If you look at it, before each link it says "COA News" or "Friends of Canadian Broadcasting" etc... which is kind of tacky. Our CDM site just shows the title of the story, which is much better.

Apparently, you just have to make one or more categories, and the category view will skip the source prefix.
