So in a continuing process, I sent several links to CCB to go through and tell me what they are and why they are the way that they are. Which for most of them they are there for a reason and she could tell me why, but lots of them are very dated and for the most part could be rolled into some type of archival system. For the most part we are never going to do away with these sites as they are, but we agreed today to make some sort of hub or page that pulls them together on the main site. So under workshops I'll create a table of these old events/sites and at least have a starting point for all of them.

Today we held a meeting about bringing some standards to the site which will be a very long ongoing process. We finally came to an agreement on some things:

• The list of staff members on the staff pages for each site will get a standard table based format, with a link to individuals pages if they have one. I'll take the ISSE and ASP type of standard and roll it out to the CCB and SERE pages.
• Everyone agreed to take the left nav on every site and only place sub-nav items instead of a mirrored navigation
  • We all agreed to use an 'about' page that will have 'people' and 'mission' as sub navs across the sites
• As stated above we'll have the an Archive section in the workshops page that will link to all the previous floating workshop pages

There are several other issues to deal with in the upcoming meetings and we tried to tackle some in this meeting.

• Should there be a standard template for employee pages?
• How are we going to deal with the Drupal change and the broken links that arise?
  • In today's meeting we decided to have a search box on the 404 page. And I'm going to try to keep the same root folder names. So for the un folder under CCB the new index for that will go under that folder, so everything is available at least at a root level.

This entire change over is going to be a hellish experience with all the resistance to change I'm receiving from so many ends and no one here likes to be mandated to do something one way, so trying to bring standards to this place is going to be very difficult.
