Several systemic bugs - any solutions?

Hello,

I've workong on getting a new site primed with Drupal and I have to say it's excellent and very powerful. Many things I struggled with in Joomla can be done with ease in drupal. It meets every need for most information / advertising portals with nicely.

That said, I've come across sever potential bugs or at least systemic roadblocks. I've searched Drupal but haven't seen any clear answers so I wanted to post the list here to see if there was a native CMS oriented way to deal with these issues or if I'm going to have to hack

1) There seems to be no way to customize meta titles and the on-page titles (so that they are totaly independent of one another). I tried the Page Title module and it doesn't seem to work.

2) when using the internationalization modules, there are a couple issues that I haven't resolved:

a) While the controls on "Site information" work brilliantly in English to allow one to define the index page and set the copyright footer, you hit a brick wall once you add a second language. There seems no way to do either of these things.

b) Also, all the URLs now have /en/. Is there a way to disable the iso language code for the default language? I understand it's needed for the others, especially if page names remains the same, but it's a bit awkward to see this for the default language. Any tweaks for this?

Drupal Suggestions

SUGGESTION:

Being an older man (60 yrs old to be exact) we date back to the 80's and FIDONet, GTPowerNet, RBBSNet, net al...

A feature I miss from those days that would make Drupal more community oriented was the ability to write in what was then called a conference area now known as forums ... then exchange conference areas with other GT or Fido based programs.. in other words, share what was posted at our website in the forums with other drupals in our "net" .. and vise versa.

Cron could be used to package and ship on a scheduled basis - the ability to receive and unpack into the proper forums in the database could also be cron powered.

How do you know what forums we have - and how do I know what forums you have..?

It was all done by subscription. If we had say a PTSD forum and you had PoW/MIA we would subscribe to your forum and if you wanted our PTSD talk you could subscribe to ours.

If we did not have an area setup for PoW/MIA the unpacking/insertion program would write the area - same could happen with a drupal setup.. ( like a plugin ) where the area and data could be inserted automagically.

Looking for Developer / Team Member for Development Project and Ongoing Support

I'm working with a group of libraries who are developing websites using Drupal. We need a development partner who can provide support and development assistance over the course of the next year. If you can offer training assistance, that's a big plus. Project is located in California although you needn't be onsite to do any of the work (unless you can do some training).
