Drupal 6 or Drupal 7?
Is this course going to focus on Drupal 6, Drupal 7, or... both? :)
D7 or D6
@Reinette - the course will primarily cover D6 as much of the current D6 material can't simply be upgraded due to the lack of stable versions of modules which are included in the materials. Acquia is working hard to provide new material for D7 and we will include appropriate information as it is provided.
Great
No, that's great - our site is in Drupal 6 and can't be upgraded due to lack of stable versions of modules... so D6 is just fine with me =)
