    8586* Exists in current 'UK as centre' model

     88* Drupal 6 weak on international/translation/location

    8991=== 2: Build new initiative feature in new Drupal 7 platform === 
    9092* Will meet basic requirement on new framework 
    9193* Assumes existing 'model' - i.e. monolithic UK site is the centre, Int'l as subsections 
     94* Starts from a clean base, but bringing the best of what we have already done. 
    9295* Integration required (ie. more backend work to port new platform back to old platform with existing directories) 
    9396* Could be some overlaps in language (e.g. between menus) and administration (e.g. country admin sends msg to other country initiative ppocs) 
     
    100103* Shares much of the earlier development work of option #2 - there will be a fork in the development path when we reach user administration 
    101104* Could well lead to an international landing page pointing to different country areas with related features 
     105* Allows the Transition Network platform to be worked on by more interested parties. 
     106* Gives a choice of hosted by TN or self-hosted whilst still keeping the network connected and synced.
