[imc-scotland-discussion] editorial interface

[Anarcho Babe]

I heard there is also a script to import from MIR to Drupal - would it be 
possible to import the old imc scotland uk articles as well?
There should hardly be any overlap from the features as DADA din't allow 
backdating of the articles so we never could import from MIR to DADA.

Also don't forget the pictures and media?
About the rss-feeds i think it would be great to have feeds from campaign 
groups like chiapas or ACE if its running on wordpres and the forest and SACC 
and similar.

bye for now
