Hi all, Just registered with this list after reading Karsten's blog on Planet Fedora. As the title suggests, I would recommend Drupal as a CMS. It has a modular design, and I expect it would not be too much effort to create a module to auth against FAS and there are many additional hooks. It has roles/groups based permissions which can be added to via additional access modules - specify who can view/edit/add what and where - all separated via "content type". Version 6.x of Drupal also has good internationalisation support from what I hear. RSS comes as standard, as does book/outline ability which is similar to the documentation system pages/contents currently used. It has good theming potential where the themes are pretty well separated from the content. The main benefit of Drupal is the contributed modules, Mainly CCK and Views. CCK - custom content types, allows you to create custom content types with as many/few fields needed - you can create a content type that has a predefined number of fields/text area's for whatever is needed. This could be extremely useful for things such as the feature process. "Views" can be used to list/display things in various ways depending on arguments provided to it. Very powerful. through the use of pathauto module, you can add url namespacing which may be of benefit to some. Admittedly a lot of the community oriented featured would proabably be go unused on the fpo website, but there are plenty of others that are very useful. -- Fedora-websites-list mailing list Fedora-websites-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-websites-list
