So is the case with me. I am module developer. However, theming has also been on mind for a while. So I can try that out. ;)
Yes, 6:00 PM is good. Lets meet up then and talk it out.

I agree that we need to put up a website for FUDCon Pune as a priority.

For the points you mentioned in another email:

account. Maybe we can use OpenID.
Not too sure about OpenID. If I am not wrong, the main target audience of FUDCon is current contributors and people who are interested in Fedora, have been using Fedora, etc. And of course, FUDCon is an initiative to bring people in the community and make it stronger. Therefore, I think FAS should make sense. Contributors => already have FAS account, people interested in Fedora => most probably have FAS account, people who want to join the community and contribute => should get an FAS account for themselves anyways.

properly. However, I think we can split up the work into two parts:
* making the website functional
* creating a Drupal theme
So is the case with me. I am module developer. However, theming has also been on mind for a while. So I can try that out. ;)
This way we can do them in parallel.

> If we are going to work together (which I think we are), we need to have a centralised space where we can work. Let this be the hosting instance as moving a Drupal instance from one instance to another could be a pain in case of COD.Agreed and here is what we need:
* a place where hosting space where we can collaboratively tweak and
test the COD installation
* fixup meeting timings for discussions
Let us meet on IRC in the evening today on #fedora-websites at 6:00PM ?
Yes, 6:00 PM is good. Lets meet up then and talk it out.
