Diagnosed that troubles with the Color Picker were due to problems with Drupal installation and a custom theme, after making a local duplicate of the site. Repaired the installation locally and transferred the fix back to the live site with no disruptions, causing the Color Picker to start working on the live site. Taught much about the use of Drupal along the way.

Wrote the RealChat module that allows users of a Drupal site to go to a RealChat server by clicking a link and have their nickname be their username, avatar be their picture on the site (if available), and their profile be linked to their site profile. It creates an authenticatable chat link if the chat server's authentication key is entered on the ReaChat administrative settings page. This allows the chat server to trust chat sessions from your Drupal site and ignore others.

Request: http://drupal.org/node/495090
Learned that the Denver Open Media Project had faced the same need and had developed a custom module called Filefield Local to solve it. Obtained the module, tweaked it slightly, and provided it to New Answer Technologies, solving their need. A Collaborative effort is underway between civicpixel (the original author of the module), Drupical (of New Answer Technologies) and crotown (myself) to bring this out as a contributed Drupal 6 module or otherwise make sure the need for attaching huge files to nodes is addressed for Drupal community.

- The Boston Review, Somerville, MA
Analysis of the workflow used to design each issue of the print edition of The Boston Review in order to design a new web site for the organization with strong content management and search capabilities and an "issue importer" system that extracts most of the information needed for the updating the new site from the Adobe InDesign files that lay out the print edition of the magazine. The old web site is still at bostonreview.net while the new web site is being developed.
