Objective: Create a centralized repository for all Drupal learning materials (video, audio, slideshows, documentation). This would include both Dojo branded content as well as materials aggregated from other sources. We would also like to provide a means for users an easy way to filter/recommend content.

Description/Requirements

* A way to tag site content as well as a way to mark off-site resources and create various listings. Basically an internal/external resources library. A way for someone looking for xyz info to get a list of all resources for it that have been tagged as such by the Dojo community.
* A means for users an easy way to filter/recommend content.
* Users will be able to create and share custom 'playlists'.

Use cases and related efforts

* Drupal newsletter for news.drupal.org.

Workflow

Aggregate feeds a la the Drupal Planet, and then we (or anyone with privileges) could assign videos to their correct location, could categorize them, possibly point them to handbook pages, or structure them in whatever way worked best.
