Hack Session on TX.CC
low fi session
to talk about what tx site can do in terms of aggregating content, etc.
to see if people wanted to take anything on in this regard
not really used at the moment
design hasn't changed design for 2 years, but oomleo's new image may go up
the site needs some love if we want people to be using it.
is it a useful webspace? the wiki is quite useful.
people could do more blogging on their projects, pull in more feeds from other people's sites
only a couple of AP sites have feeds on it atm, but pad.ma and uniontube can be added.
aggregation is a big one that can be used to improve things
ifiwatch has built some new aggregation tools that would be good to implement maybe? atm we are using the ootb drupal instigation of aggregation.
potentially people could use it to search for feeds across the tx network.
doesn't need to be complicated. What does it need to be well utilised.
maybe it's not a space that will ever be "well utilised"
adding in the ifiwatch aggregation tools to have the meta data standard to be seached

http://wiki.transmission.cc/index.php/Drupal_MediaRSS_Setup
can't be upgraded to drupal 6 due to cck suport in drupal 6 being in alpha
moving the liquid wiki over to pages or to the wiki.transmission.cc manually and getting ready for losing liquid altogether.
videos can be on other sites, but the metadata can be kept on tx
