As we discussed it with eigentor at #ddcprague I'll be happy to contribute my dummy drupal setup. You can check it here: http://themes.nood.org/

It uses all types of nodes + comments provided by core drupal modules. It might need cleanup of course, but at least will save time at first. Currently it's in D6 but I'll port it to D7 later today.

Meanwhile if you have any suggestions I shall include before initial upload, let me know.

(Now have to figure out how to make installation profile out of it... hm...)

Hi Mr. Pshenichny ;)
If you are willing to completely share this setup, maybe you - after you ported it to D7 - do just a DB Dump and wrap up all Drupal files, so we can install and inspect it with no hassle.

If it is all cleanly put into modules, even the better. But lets start with low-effort methods, so we can collect and compare all start setups and then see how to combine them and pull the best out of every one of these.

So, here it is: D7b2 db dump. A few notes:

- default theme switched to stark
- missing dummy content for blog module (I'd usually create my own "blog" type and run it nice with views)
- may be not so complete at "all block regions" page
- any emails are set for @example.com (so you would't get password reminder)

Login credentials:
- admin/admin!
- user/user!

O.K. now testing is on...
Anyone up to test betarobots setup?

I couldn't log in using admin/admin or user/user. I got in changing the password in the database though.

The biggest problem in making this an installation profile is the content. None of the node export modules have a Drupal 7 release yet and even in Drupal 6 none of the node export modules have Features support. Providing a database is not a good idea. What do we do about that? Thinking about it, I think the only good solution is to create a module that creates our nodes using node_save, users using user_save and terms using taxonomy_term_save. Let's get a developer on board to help with this.

Aschiwi: of course. I asked Andrey only for the DB dump to evaluate the profile quickly now. When we built the thing in the end it has to be different of course.
This is collecting and brainstorming phase.

Just a note re passwords: don't forget exclamation mark at the end. So the password is exactly 'admin!' not 'admin'

Oh, I totally ignored the exclamation marks =D Thanks for clarifying.

I installed Betarobots dummy content here:
http://auweia.org/test/drupal-head/

Looks like a solid start! Books being there, Forums, and the typography test. We could see if we want to use a module for the Typography test, I guess there are some out there that list all Drupal elements (including fieldsets and stuff).

So anyone please check out and see if something is missing or if we even should use less.
http://demo.kiwi-themes.com/drupal-dev/ has more stuff, so what is better, more or less?

It's nice if there is a module to show all the drupal elements.

But anyway it's quite possible to do it just by ripping html source and pasting it to the page. Of course the forms for example will not be functional but that's ok I think.
