News items that are general JASIG related (i.e. annual conference announcements) and feature news items specific to JA-SIG projects (i.e. uPortal Training Available...). News items should be ordered by the news item creation date. News item creation date should be editable.

Using the creation date for News items would work for ordering news items in most instances, however, using a modification date might make sense. There are some news items which needed to be weighted such that they appear on top of the list and stay on top. For example, the annual conference announcement might appear for several months and becomes more significant as the conference date approaches. Similarly, setting an "expires on" date would be useful. News items which describe an event which happened in the past, in many cases, is of little use. For example, "uPortal Training to be held March 1st" is of no use today (March 4th). |
News should be available as an RSS feed.

How should "events" which are also "news" be handled? Events would always have a date associated with them but might also be considered "News". Do we some sort of informal policy or criteria for determining where items appear? |
