MadDUG April Meeting
Start:
2009-04-02 18:00 - 20:00 America/Chicago Once again DANEnet has kindly offered to host us at 517 N Segoe Rd in the 2nd floor conference room.
This month we'll go through the configuration of one of the sites built in the book Using Drupal. After taking a look at the site's configuration and module choices, we'll talk about what could have been done differently (and if that would be a good idea).

Neil's Site
I'd like a link to Neil's site where he used jquery/javascript to create a rotating background image.
Two sites actually
www.wnpj.org - This is the Drupal site
www.rsvpdane.org - This is a dreamweaver site, but has similar javascript (and does not require a refresh to rotate).
Open Source CMS comparison
Here's a link (from Bob) with a pdf comparing open source CMS platforms: http://waterandstone.com/downloads/2008OpenSourceCMSMarketSurvey.pdf
