Sound Quality

On January 8th, 2007 NikLP (not verified) said:

Sorry guys - the content is helpful, as ever, but it's almost unlistenable in terms of sound quality. I don't know if you can resample this maybe? I know it would get bigger but it's pretty bad in a lot of places.

Thanks anyway! :)

Skype Glitch

On January 8th, 2007 jeff said:

Yeah, Skype glitched out on us a few times -- sunspots or something :-). We'll see what we can do to avoid this in the future, but this one is going to have to remain in as-is condition.

Info about new tpl.php capabiilities of Drupal 5

On January 8th, 2007 calebg (not verified) said:

Great news about the more granular themeing capabilities of Drupal 5 via the tpl.php files.

Can you recommend a link or two for more info about these new features?

This is the only pseudo-documentation I can find for 5.0 themeing. (a how-to for converting 4.7 themes to 5.0)

As it turns out

...some guy that works at this place called Lullabot has the best info on the new Drupal 5 themeing features at his blog. ;)

Show notes

On January 11th, 2007 Anonymous (not verified) said:

Hi,

great podcast. But with the number of new modules listed it would be nice if you could include some show notes which give links to new modules, listed issues, etc.

This would make it easier for us to find these things later.

Thanks.

hard to reference modules on drupal.org

On January 8th, 2007 sime (not verified) said:

The "new module" section is great, but it's very hard to reference back to drupal.org. It's not impossible, because I can browse by name, but you tend to fall behind the flow of the conversation. So time permitting I also request a module list in the description of the podcast as well. ;-)

What a blast--and thanks for the webliography. The Sony BMG site is really impressive, luvit! Nice to hear N American accents again here in an industrial office park in Belgium, and I will tune in again. I found your site via Drupal and the installation tutorial Jeff made. Thx!
