      4.2 SWOT analysis for the scope of work (ref 1.2, 1.3, 4.1)

         How do we engage people through social networks in order to encourage LibreOffice use and contributions.

        Discussion about setting up a forum (Insert arguement here) - Forking communication methods, solutions for this.

        If this did go ahead what infrastructure should we be using?

    8. How can content from Siverstripe be converted/exported to Drupal and viceversa, what restrictions have to be made to get an automatic process to do so. If this would be possible, both ways (Silverstripe and Drupal) could be implemented.

If it shows, that Drupal has more benefit for the user/developer/QA/ etc.
