147 - Create a new Joomla! v 1.5 website for a not for profit organization.
Posted: Sat Jan 05, 2008 6:48 pm
Hello,
this is my 2nd task.
My first task
So, I began making websites 5 years ago.
Currently, my online websites are net-libre (fr), freetorrent (I help the main webmaster, fr) and I plan to make a new website for my LUG CLX
I have decided to create a new website for the social and cultural center of Cosne/Loire (fr), it's a 1901's law association so a non-profit organization in France.
I know an employee of this association, so I will work with him to have a website that answers to their needs.
I'll share the code and the database structure to bring something to the community.
I'll try to be more present on the irc channels.
this is my 2nd task.
My first task
I introduced myself on the first task but I didn't write about my webmaster experience yet.Create a new Joomla! v 1.5 website for a not-for-profit organization. This
could include a place of worship, a club, a humanitarian or missionary
site, a non-profit organization in your community, or for your school. It
is preferred if the site uses all three SEF URL options and several
extensions created by Joomla! GHOP contestants.
When the site is complete, prepare an overview of the website, sharing
lessons learned, site highlights, pictures of the website, and
comments/quotes from those who will use and maintain the site. This
overview can be written or video based. It should be developed in such a
way that it could be used by others considering if Joomla! might meet their
needs for a similar site and purpose.
The contestant is expected to be in close contact with the Joomla! GHOP
judges and community by posting in the Joomla! forums every few days to
share project status information, request assistance, and share ideas with
others. It is important to engage the community and include appropriate
feedback into the project, as well.
After a Joomla! GHOP judge acknowledges you have claimed this task, please
read http://forum.joomla.org/index.php/topic,239201.0.html and respond in
the Joomla! forums. Your first post should announce who the site will be
built and confirmation that a Joomla! v 1.5 site is not already available
for this purpose.

Extra Credit
This task can be done very simply, with limited functionality, or, the
developer can create a fully functional environment of some complexity. The
presentation of the site in written or video form is also an important part
of the judging of this task. The depth of implementation will be the extra
credit opportunity for this task.
