CiviCRM is installed in our main hosting order, under the subdirectory "crew/".

We're using the drupal version of civicrm, since drupal civi has some useful plugins for political organizations. Drupal was installed via the mf/pl control panel.

crew is under git source control. ~/masspirates.org/include/git/crew.git is a bare repository, and the master copy.

For themes

 drush pm-download zen
 drush pm-enable zen

I haven't done any theme customization yet.

Additional modules installed

 pathauto
 token

Installed civicrm, according to instructions at http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC/Drupal+Installation+Guide+for+CiviCRM+4.5+-+Drupal+7

I told civicrm's installer to use a different database than drupal itself. You'll see this database listed in the MFPL control panel. Rationale for using a different database: if we need to do any kind of non-civicrm drupal development, it would be nice to do this without dragging civi data into a local development environment.

Configuration checklist.
