Welcome to the Groupware group. The purpose of this group is to focus on discussing, planning and implementing a groupware solution using Drupal. All interested parties should congregate and add their input. Groupware, as Collaborative Working Environment (CWE) is the modules, contents and settings that can be used by a group of people who are co-working on the same information or knowledge space.
HOW to make a Drupal IntraNet ??! + social activist site building
Hi, missing a link to an informative page/wiki on the IntraNet group page; about ways to accomplish a Drupal IntraNet and pros & cons of different methods doing so? Just a guess; I tried if a "intranet" module exists and yes: http://drupal.org/project/intranet ... Next try, what more shows up under intranet? http://drupal.org/search/apachesolr_search/intranet
OK, now I get confused, so maybe I shouldn't install the intranet module..?
* "Galaminds Intranet solution"
* "Basic private intranet"
* "OG-Intranet"
* "single-two sites?"
* "Linking Drupal Intranet with OpenAtrium"

Groups vs. Multiple Drupal installations
Hello there!
If you want to give a user total control over a site (his/her site, area, or whatever you want to call it), what should be better? Creating a group for each user, as in drupal Groups, or creating a multisite installation?
When I say "total control" I mean everything: Blogs, polls, newsletters, have a fan´s group (not buudies, I mean actual users that are created just to enter his/her personal site).
Would multiple sites installations become a huge monster, that no server could manage?
What are your thoughts?

My name is Matthew Pare and I'm a Co-Chair for the "Community and Core" track for Drupalcon Boston 2008. Over the last couple of weeks we have been planning and brainstorming to make Drupalcon Boston 2008 the best Drupalcon to date! One of our recommended track session topics is "Drupal.org and the Community" and since your viewing this post on the Groupware groups.drupal.org group I thought you would be excellent candidates for submitting sessions on the topic.

Read moreThe module webfm (web file manager) perfect, cool for sharing files in CWE
In our first implementation of this module, all is running perfectly
http://drupal.org/project/webfm
you can share files from a web and a ftp folders.
simply required (dreaming):
- permission for folders (different folders with different permission by role)
- description of files (50 characters)
- webfm integration to groups
- Open Office extensions odt, odp, ods,.. basicaly
Ferran
This case of high quality can provide a good example to learn by other modules that dont have enough checking, promises a lot of features and fault a lot in critical errors.

CCK versus Taxonomy for node referencing
I had been looking for a way to have a two-way reference between 2 nodes. You would need this for basic CRM functionality e.g. to be able to link a person to a company or an action to a project. This way you can go to a person and see what company he is part of or go to that company and see all the people that are working in that company.

opengroupware.org ??!!!
Does anybody know about opengroupware ??
Maybe it could be interesting to study how to make opengroupware.org tools available through a Drupal interface (maybe built with Flex 2 SDK for the client side while using Services/Amfphp drupal modules in the server side)
It's just an Idea, I haven't had the time to study the project by myself...

More Info . . .
The things I see as really being key to making this happen are CCK, Views and install profiles. Meaning that the next version of Drupal should be really ripe for pushing an effort like this forward, though I'm sure there will be lots of tweaking and customizing to get it 'just right'.
When I'm not late for an appointment, I'll outline what I believe are the key things a groupware implementation should include.
