During building of the eiffelroom site with Drupal I learned quite a lot about this CMS. First, it has a good API and a whole bunch of modules which help you build your site. Second, it does not provide everything I need.

You might have noticed the new link Tag search which directs you to a new page where you are asked to enter a query.

Julian and I have implemented a simple tag query language to be able to perform more complex searches over the tags:

tcp -udp

And because of that, we can now easily add images to our blog posts and articles. Just upload an image (you must be logged in) and then you can use it via it's name with the standard Mediawiki syntax.

After three months of development, eiffelroom is finally launched. It had some starting difficutlies as you probably noticed: Shortly after the official launch I happend to delete the database!

As the EIFFEL_ROOM is a pretty big room and has plenty of space available for all kind of things, a neat way to have some kind of order has to be available. The ultimate goal is to be able to keep total chaos on a reasonable distance without spending to much effort in doing so.
