We had some issues with getting setup that we finally resolved. We also spoke with Brett on the phone.

We had our most productive meeting in many months leading to the launch of the new web site. The new web site is administered via Drupal. Drupal is a content management tool that will allow the parish organization and staff to post their own content. Also Drupal has functionality being added all of the time. Future improvements can be made via Drupal modules.

We welcomed Cathy Stamper to the committee. We look forward to her insight for improving the web site.

It was a great meeting to end the year. We look forward to starting off 2007 with a big change. We are targeting January 15th for the launch of the new drupal web site as www.stjohnwc.org. Here's what we discussed:

• We need Brett to fix Daily Mass Schedule on the current web site. Steve could not find the file to change. The Drupal site has it correct.
• We need to fix Fr. Linh's email address on the web site (Steve will do this).
• We need to add a link to News and Notes to the menu.

Attendees: Brett, Steve

• Steve and Brett reviewed the current status of the Drupal web site and made good progress.
• Brett is going focus on the new Home Page and interactive portions of the web site: News and Notes, From Father Mark, Meeting Minutes, and the Daily Readings links. We decided to skip working on the Forums for now.
• We worked on the method for updating the Parish Calendar on the drupal site. Brett copied the current Parish Calendar html file and pasted it into the Drupal Parish Calendar page. On this page, we had disabled rich-text and turned on full HTML for the format.
