This wiki page answers some of the basic questions of how Drupal may be used for powering a newspaper website. The intended audience is newspaper people who have just heard about Drupal, and want to know a bit more about what it is and what you can do with it.

There's a discussion at the bottom of the page. If you're new to Drupal, feel free to add any questions you have there. (If you're not new to Drupal, feel free to answer any questions or to improve this page in any way you find suitable.)

I've included a some questions concerning import/export, heavy data traffic and a bit more. I'd be grateful if anyone with more Drupal-skills could check these. Also - since I'm not a native English-writer, I'd also be happy for language checks. And, of course, anybody is free to change the page in a way they think improves it. //Itangalo

DotNetNuke for newspapers?

The magazine I'm web editor for is planning on rebuilding the web site. Main candidate has been Drupal, but yesterday DotNetNuke was suggested as an alternative. (DNN was said to have all/many of the features we were looking for right out of the box.)

I've been trying to find useful comparisons between DNN and Drupal, but so far only with modest success. (For example, opensourcecms.com doesn't have DNN, and cmsmatrix.org mainly lists a number of labels which are difficult to understand and not always relevant.)
