Major architectural upgrades

Section	Percent Complete	Notes
Smarty template conversion	80%	All-pages partially converted - some smaller things not yet converted
New Webcast tables	80%	New classes created, only the publish form + edit page works though, no newsire, caching, etc
New admin interface (ActiveSfAdminRedesign)	75%	new layout was checked in, some new modules added, some things still need to be tweaked
"Producer" / Static sites	60%	some parts work. most don't
SF "newsroom" (page-based editing	80%	Code is there, just need to integrate with producer?
"Automirroring"	75%	it works for uploads allready a long time

Details for Producer

Section	Pct Complete	Notes
Features	100%	Might want to think about how multi-language stuff works more though -- current/archived becomes more dodgy a distinction
"includes"	100%	These work but most should be replaced with the Newsroom code
Static pages	100%	Ditto
Articles	90%	Not yet done
Newswire	0%
Gallery	99%
Minical	80%?
Feature Photo	?
