+    * http://drupal.org/handbook/config/contribmodules
+==== things to find out ====
+  * flickr integration?
+    * special arrangements like our frontpage picture selection idea?
+    * http://www.lullabot.com/articles/how_to_build_flickr_in_drupal
+    * module that uploads to flickr and drupal at the same time: http://drupal.org/project/flickrup
+      * how to get the flickr filter working?
+  * how to do lists of related links
+    * will they be made manually? or based on tags? or...
+    * views?
+    * and only have them show up on the correct pages
+      * block configuration? if the pages have urls that can be selected with a wildcard, then it will be easier.
+    * about tags: http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/taxonomy/
+    * "Displaying related nodes using Views and Contemplate" > http://drupal.org/node/134320
+  * what is cck? ;)
+    * http://drupal.org/project/cck
+    * for making structured kinds of content... but what is the structure of our content?
+  * can you link to the page of a paged view that contains a particular node?
+    * looking at the code in includes/pager.inc it looks like no.
+    * would this work with an image gallery?
+      * seems to use the same pager code. finding this out would require an extra query from the database.
+  * how do you use imagecache?
+    * it normally seems to need custom theming, but you can access the generated pics at /files/imagecache/NAMESPACE/FILENAME
+    * from the imagecache README.TXT: <code>print theme('imagecache', $ruleset_namespace, $image['filepath'], $alt, $title, $attributes)</code>
+  * can a normal image_gallery work with a non "image gallery" tag?
+    * yes, /gallery/tid/XX where XX is the id of the tag.
+    * but since galleries can't really be included in anything else (views, panels etc) they are kind of useless.
+  * how would i do a view-like taxonomy query in mysql? (doesn't the devel module tell you this stuff?)
+    * <code>select * from node join term_node where node.nid=term_node.nid and tid=63;</code>
+    * <code>select * from node join term_node, term_data where node.nid=term_node.nid and term_node.tid=term_data.tid and term_data.name="xmedk";</code>
+    * nicer: <code>select * from node join term_node on  node.nid=term_node.nid join  term_data on term_node.tid=term_data.tid where term_data.name="xmedk";</code>
+  * how do breadcrumbs work? are they like a back button, or is there some other hierarchy? how is it defined?
+    * seems that they are set by modules. there are a few different ways of doing it.
+      * it looks like the menu defines breadcrumbs by default..?
+      * http://drupal.org/project/nodehierarchy
+      * http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_breadcrumb
+  * manually setting the teaser breakpoint: http://drupal.org/node/176829
+  * what happens when you upload two images with the same name?
+    * the clash gets resolved automatically _0 (etc) is appended.
+  * where do you set the front page?
+    * admin/settings/site-information
