Issues Raised during the Workshop, 24.4.07

 * A dynamic navigation bar is required. A bar that would put, at its top, the navigation options of the community itself (e.g., to the blog category of the community rather than to the blogs homepage / to the communities BSCW space rather than to the BSCW homepage / and to additional wiki pages of the community that are of interest to the community). Only under these community navigation options, should the user find more general navigation options
 * Blogs
 * A front pages is required for community building. Such a page would have most of the following options: categories, tags, recent posts, new blogs, talkback storms (posts that have many comments, indicating there's a discussion going on), hot posts (posts that have many readers, indicating that they are of interest). Such a page would allow community people to find each other based on interest, and get to know each other - thus gaining a sense of community
 * Drupal blogging system:
 * Tags should be added
 * This is not a tag cloud. It is merely a category cloud.
 * Comments should be organized in chronological order, not reverse chronological order. Unlike blog posts in which the top one is the most recent one, comments are threaded discussions and must be ordered accordingly.
 * Author's entries should not be counted. Currently, the author is counted as a reader, and so when I enter my blog in order to find out if I got any responses, I raise the counter by 1
 * BSCW blogs
 * Can access be given to the whole LL Open Community?
 * Will this system have a good front page for the community?
 * Non-technical issues
 * Decide on a single blogging environment
 * Start building the blogging community. We first need one or two LL bloggers to report their day-to-day activities
