Finally! this site runs the latest release of Drupal 6. All my blog articles, up to the very first one are there. And the pictures, too.

The whole thing works with a minimum of external modules. Only the textile module and my own ‘‘get content module’‘. No image module, and of course not CCK or views.

The theme is deco.

How have I done this?

‘‘Get content’‘ implements an XMLRPC client and server. The server runs on my old Drupal 4.7 installation and provides content. The client runs here and draws content from there. It can cope with stories, taxonomy, and images. Images are transferred as standard nodes with uploaded files, so the image module is not necesssary.

Once I had the images stored as standard uploaded files, the only missing peace was the content filter provided by the image assist module. No problem: The ‘‘get content module’‘ provides a content filter to emulate the img_assist-tags of this module.

You can download an alpha version of the getc module.
