module

I've been given the task of re-doing a state school board association website entirely. Right now it's on Typo3, which has proven too difficult of a learning curve for those involved, and it's too difficult to make it "pretty." For a slew of other reasons, I'm trying to sell the switch to Drupal.

I'm 90% sure I want Drupal. Especially over Joomla because of SEO and the ability to control what different viewers can access.

I have different types of viewers:
*The average School Board Member
*Members who have paid to have access to Policy information

Hi everyone,
this post is meant for Bill of course, but anyone willing to answer is more then welcome. As part of a project for implementing a service to several secondary schools we tested Drupaled for a while. We are now in the process to prepare a version to be distributed as version 0 (the schools will work with similar navigation schemes, templates and compulsory contents managed individually). The pilot version is based on Drupaled 5.6. I was wondering about the upgrade to version 6. Will it be possible to upgrade the school sites later from 5.6 to 6? What steps are to be foreseen?

Question - is anyone using the node_comment module to handle the submission of student information? Here's what I'm thinking of doing and i'm looking for yeh's or neh's about it....

The second module in the ELMS project, HTML Export [3], was released today in beta form on drupal.org. It is a very lightweight module that only generates a settings page at the moment. Click yes you want to export to HTML and then submit. It will churn for a bit and crank out an offline copy of your entire node structure for your site. This is most useful with books as their menu system is done automatically in a block if you turn it on. So far it is very limited (only publishes ALL nodes in anonymous view to a random directory that it links you to).
