Drupal.org redesign code sprints: update 3
Ever wanted to see the Media Lab at MIT? An almost mythical place where "...the future is lived, not imagined ... a world where radical technology advances are taken for granted, ..." and technology is designed "... for people to create a better future".
I've visited the Media Lab before and it is highly recommended. This is your chance.
On Friday, June 12th, we're conducting a one-day Drupal.org redesign sprint at the MIT Media Lab. Designed to bring home our kicking re-design for Drupal.org designed by Mark Boulton and Leisa Reichelt, all Drupal designers and developers who would like to contribute to theming our new home at drupal.org are welcome, invited, and encouraged to attend. Attendance is limited, so you must sign-up in advance.
Even if you're "just" a newbie, we'll make sure to have you ready for attendance by activating your infrastructure.drupal.org account, by creating your own hosted copy of drupal.org for your localized testing, and by training you in working within the redesign theme issue queue.
If you are interested in helping -- and I hope you are -- please sign-up to schedule your training by visiting http://groups.drupal.org/node/22036. Thanks!

It is that phase of my life! I'm just turning 30 in a month, working with Drupal for 7 years and just had my third Acquia anniversary a week ago. Time to look back and evaluate how things went, all the good and bad things; even better if the wisdom can be shared with others. This was part of my thinking when I submitted the session titled "Come for the software, stay for the community" for Drupalcon Copenhagen.

It sounded like a really simple request: "Is it easy to add a search filter for 'My posts'?". In other words, add a search result facet for posts by the current (logged in) user through the Apache Solr Search Integration module APIs?
But then the wheels start turning - we want not just one blind link, but a real facet link that tells us how many results we'll get. Also, if we are filtering by 'My posts' then we probably have an equal use case for the opposite filter 'Posts not by me'. So we really need a facet block with two links and facets counts.
