It has been a while since I worked on a Intranet Project, something I really like. Specially this one were I am able to telive my days of Sharepoint Portal Server 2003, because I will have to migrate the existing Intranet to a MOSS environment.
So to change a bit of my last contexts, this time is an Intranet, with a migration from SPS 2003.

I haven’t posted in a long time, mostly due to two reasons, holidays and my latest project.
Yesterday has been launched my latest project: www.culturaonline.pt.
It is a Sharepoint 2007 website, with so many integrations and the functionality of mobile channel.
It was a very demanding project, but it is a great joy to see him go live.
Let me just thank to all of our team for the effort and dedication on this project, you are the best!

The migration process usually is done from WSS to MOSS, but once in a while there is the need to do the opposite, so what should you do?
First of all you need to be careful with the features of MOSS that don’t exist in WSS, so a good option is to deactivate them before trying to do a Backup or Export.
This can result in problems with your site, so the best thing is to insure that everything works with the MOSS features deactivated, before migrating to WSS.

A friend on mine asked me if I had any ideia how can a Sharepoint site be in one language (Portuguese) and the correspondant My sites be in another (English).
The reason was that the Sharepoint was in English and had the Portuguese language pack installed, the result of this is that when a user creates his My Site it will be done in English and not Portuguese. Why?
Well, in the Shared Services, User Profiles and My Sites there is an option My Sites Settings. There you have a check box to enable the user to choose the language for their personal site, it should be unchecked . . .
So to sum up, to solve the problem you can check that option, and the users will be asked, on the creation of the personnal sites, in which language they choose.
It isn´t rocket science, but it solves problems.
