Read moreDrupal Commons vs Open Atrium
Hi All,
Just wanted to get your opinions on Drupal Commons and Open Atrium as an intranet solution. I've googled and found quite a few results, but I wanted to get a more recent and closer opinion of these 2 install profiles.
My impressions:

Drupal Install in Plesk 10
Anybody with experience installing Drupal w/ Plesk 10?
I just moved to a dedicated virtual, and Plesk is the default Control Panel. Logged in as admin (of Plesk), I created a subscription for my main site example.com, and had to create another user (userx) for it. However, I can't login to control panel w/ userx, but yet have ftp access, and I've set ssh access as well.

There were 13 people present. We had pizza, beer, hard cider, soda, water, and cookies available (I think most folks didn't know about the cookies).
