Hi, I'm Tim Millwood. I am a Web Developer from Abergavenny, UK, and work for Mark Boulton Design, specializing in Drupal. This is my blog!

Streamline Drupal CVS checkout
Today I had the task of checking out Drupal core and a load of modules for a new site, but all those CVS commands made me think there must be an easier way. So I started looking into scripting the process. This is when I came across Patrick Corbett's blog post "Drupal CVS Checkout Shortcuts".
The perfect Drupal development environment
Since becoming a "professional" Drupal developer earlier this year one of the hardest things I have found within my team is best practices for Drupal development. When maintaining my blog or web startup all best practices go out the window. The approach taken is to SSH into the server, get all of drupal core and contrib using wget, do all main module and theme development on localhost then FTP them to the server.
