Innovation News Development

We are the Open Publishing Lab, a research lab at the Rochester Institute of Technology that is researching new methods of content creation and developing open source applications for publishing across various media.
How many development hours to expect?
Hello,
I'm brand spanking new to Drupal and to this forum. I poked around a bit and didn't see anything posted on this topic yet.
I've just taken on a freelance project to create a newspaper (or newspaper-like) website for a client. So far what I know is that he wants to have different departments (I'm assuming things like "current events", "sports", "entertainment", etc.) and he also wants several different people to contribute content. He wants to be able to post different types of content: text, slideshows, videos, etc. Knowing this, Drupal sounds like a good solution.
Best image solution for images and news
Updated.
This post inspired by reply of http://groups.drupal.org/user/6482 in similar post.
So, I need "enterprise" solution and can't figure out the way to do.
Imagefield is not acceptable for that.
I want reuse my images.
Example:
I have article about local event. There was vip-person on this event and sponsors.
Sponsors images will appear only here in this article.
vip-person image i get from "vip-person" gallery
event images from "This event" gallery
What is the easiest way for editor to add article and images to drupal?
Suggestions wanted: 3rd Party Ad Serving Services
Looking for opinions on 3rd party ad serving systems. Our current service (Burst Media AdConductor) was inherited from earlier development efforts and I'd like to compare it against other systems popular with media sites. Anybody have any relevant insight and or good experiences with a particular system? Thanks.
Intro and call for assistance...
Hi, my name is Bob Gunner and I have worked in Houston media (Both traditional print, broadcast and Internet) since I was 18. I am familiarizing myself with Drupal development to create an alternative news and entertainment publication for The Woodlands area near Houston. I was laid off of a two-year gig as the managing cluster editor and content manager for a media company and have decided it was time to pursue self-employment.
Searching for SAXOTECH editorial system users who use or want to use Drupal

The Public Press, a new daily newspaper for the San Francisco Bay Area
The Public Press www.public-press.org is a concept for the next-generation daily newspaper. We're organizing a group of journalists, technologist and nonprofit managers to organize a new newsroom for the San Francisco Bay Area that would produce a Web site, daily print newspaper and collaborations with nonprofit news-gathering organizations locally and nationally. We've built a simple Drupal 6 site that we will be growing in the coming weeks and months, and we plan to start publishing on the Web using this platform.
