[Actionchix] Where to from here

What I'd like to happen next:
1. Plone to be installed on the main server at, say,
beta.linuxchix.org, locked up behind HTTP Basic Auth (to keep Google
from indexing it and the general public away from it until it's
live)
2. The current website to be set read-only or the nearest equivalent
(with the exception of the news manager).
3. Content migration to begin into Plone under the direction of Chris
and Jen, following the new site architecture as devised by Chris and
Amy.
Content migration should be tracked using some kind of todo list, eg
on the wiki. As many volunteers as we have should do the transition.
A smaller number of people should check each page for semantically
sane XHTML after each page is transferred.
Any pages moving URLs should have their old and new URLs recorded in
the todo list for redirecting.
4. Simultaneously with 3, Plone administrators to set up the following
features:
1. a news feed with RSS
2. an "events" for upcoming conferences and LinuxChix events with
RSS and, if possible, iCal.
I would like the migration to take no more than three weeks. With many
hands, this should be possible.
5. Once migration is complete, the new site should become www., the
basic auth be dropped, and redirects go into effect.
6. After the new site goes live, I will make a decision about design,
and call for volunteers to implement it as a Plone skin (and for
accessibility volunteers to give feedback).
7. After the new site goes live, we will do whatever is required to set
up website translation.
