This is the heart of the conversation.  There's lots of "cool" stuff in 
Drupal, but what do we *need*, really?  Here's my wish list:

1. Calendars.  We can do this with standalone ics files.

2. Translatability.  We should be able to break content out into easy 
translation strings.

3. Form processing.  Straight CGI, eh?

What else do we *really* need for the static / "authoritative" site?

I'm perfectly fine changing f.r.c to some more Fedora-friendly domain 
name, btw.
