I have worked a lot with Twin Cities Indymedia to implement Drupal. Drupal is taking off with a lot of Indymedia chapters so I think it would be good to get Indymedia-affiliated volunteers in the same room and see if we can drum up some good plans for Drupal 7.
The indymedia_cities module is already ported, and perhaps we could find a way to use modules like Feeds to syndicate content around the IMC network.
Background: The global Independent Media Center network got rolling around the WTO protests in Seattle in 1999, and chapters from Africa to Portland have long been a main backbone of internet activist media.
Personally I think there is a ton of value in these connections & history but it requires modernizing the technical side, decentralized syndication &etc.
I don't know if it's too late to do BOF, or perhaps just meetup somewhere offsite as well.
