Technical TODO

Layout TODO

 * Drupal: Add a Read nbr column in the "recent post entries" of the blogging part
 * MediaWiki: remove IP number on anonymous page
 * MediaWiki: change color of corner images in AmiTheme
 * All: create a favicon.ico
 * Drupal: text boxes not aligned in Firefox, see e.g. new blog entry, my account/edit

Wiki

 * Templates
 * Discussion points:
 * clickable icons contrary to images
 * user list with full name (first name, last name), in tools menu (who's who) with link to their user page
 * Is it possible to create a category "concept" in order to identify the concepts description pages? associate the category "concept" with the category "community" in order to link concepts with communities?
 * what about the category "meta-concept" like for "research topic" which is a meta-concept linking concept to the research areas by communities?
 * is it possible to have "myConcepts" which would be grouping all new concept wiki pages one has created. Should concept wiki pages be identified with a special category such as "concept category"? and why not to have "concepts" as an entry of the community tools menu that would give a list of created concepts? then I can put there some metrics about how many concepts are created in a certain period of time, how many members are contributing to the definition of new concepts, how many collaboration group are created to define/develop new concepts.
 * wiki pages for private group, i.e. only the group members can access those pages
