The board of directors held a meeting Thursday evening 5:30 January 31.

All members were present except Michael Mathews and Hank Merkle who were on the telephone.

We discussed the problems with the site, went over the following document that Ron provide and decide to move to the Zenforo as soon as possible without any further patches on the present Php software.

Ron will add expected dates of completion and keep us updated with progress.

WHAT HAPPENED WITH MAIN SITE:


  1. Unannounced update of main site
  2. DNS was apparently misconfigured and we hadn’t noticed
  3. Updated apache had different security levels than our own site that blocked certain things
  4. RWS changed the way the firewalls work, cutting me off from the site. We also lost Root password for a while.
  5. The new PHP seems to crash from time to time in PhotoPost (think it’s memory).

WHERE WE ARE:


  1. Existing site, mostly restored. Still have a couple of lurking bugs.
  2. Have installed XF and “auto imported” most of our existing forums and photo content over as a test.
  3. Have installed the XF 2.0 for development testing. 2.1 just announced
  4. I moved the DNS from RWS to GoDaddy.

WHAT WE NEED TO SWITCH:


  1. Forums
  2. Photos
  3. Advertisements
  4. Our extra fields
  5. Our registration process
  6. Articles

NEEDED AFTER SWITCH (in rough order)


  1. User levels
  2. DQ (before the end of the month)
  3. Payments
  4. Raffle
  5. Voting
  6. Classifieds
  7. Better Article System

PLAN:


  1. Update AWS site with ZF2.
  2. Write advertising system.
  3. Test out import (especially moving articles
  4. Bring up test site for evaluation
  5. Setup “new” site. Freeze old site, import the data, roll out.
  6. Continue working on the missing stuff.
