Import metadata from ug homepage
We can import a specific xml file described by a dtd that contains additional imformations about a usergroup.
You mean: instead of mailing some contact information
- mail address
- twitter name
- homepage
we would import those data from a single url, that is provided bythe UG?
I would suggest to import other data like events, meetings or maybe some users.
The data should be imported in a period like monthly.
No, that wasn't the idea.
The Idea was to enable the usergroups to add additional informations to their usergroup like the path to a logo or a thorough description. The Idea came from the project http://usergroups.rheinmainrocks.de/ where @coderbyheart includes XML-files for each usergroup.
These additional informations might include the following (not a complete list, just my two cent)
- Path to a logo
- Description of the usergroup
- Names of leaders
- Short history
The XML file should be on the top level with a defined name, so that they are downloadable via the URL provided in the form
