Performance: caching and CS aggregation and compression enabled in  Admin.

I was finding it inconvenient to have to the Create content menu hidden inside the Content menu so I've moved it up the hierarchy.

I've created a Web site admin group to contain Simulistics web site development and general administration information and discussion.

This groups replaces the sitedev blog tag in controlling access to web site development related blog entries. Instead of having to remember to enter sitedev in an empty tag box there is now  a set of check boxes in a new Audience section.  Content may be made available to any combination of groups and made public.

We could have a Simile project and even separate projects for helpers. Users could add them too. 

Problem adding a project though, even with some text in the "Full description" field, I get an error message telling me that a description is required.

Enable users to create and manage their own 'groups'. Each group can have subscribers, and maintains a group home page where subscribers communicate amongst themselves. They do so by posting the usual node types: blog, story, page, etc. A block is shown on the group home page which facilitates these posts. The block also provides summary information about the group.

Mark pointed out that the logs weren't updating. I've found out why -- logging wasn't enabled! It now is.

The standard Drupal contact page is linked to from the navigation menu. I filled in the main categories, sales, support and info. However, I think our old web site Contact page is superior. Addresses etc could be added to the Drupal version but we might as well just copy the old page over and use that. Also, I prefer to send email from my usual client rather than a form.

Providing a form for the email would be helpful if a regular mail client wasn't available. So perhaps a link to the Drupal Contact form should be added to the copy of the old Contact page?

Many admin pages are wide and overlap with the  RHS blocks so I've disabled the blobs for the admin  section.

It wasn't on before because the test failed but I guessed that the problem might be the RewriteBase so checked the root Drupal .htaccess and changed it to /drupal (where Drupal is installed).

When the site goes live we want the urls not to include /drupal. I don't know what the difficulties with that will be.

The model tag pages, e.g. Fractals, are empty but filtering by tags works fine. The blog tag pages work OK.

Could you have a look Mark?
