Archive Ique to drupal archive?

Hello Everyone,
We are moving our newspaper site to drupal 6 and I would like to add our entire archive of stories from our Archive Ique to our new Drupal archive as well. Has anyone here had any experience with this or other transfer options? I am somewhat new to drupal so any tips on creating the archive, transferring stories from Baseview/Mediaspan archive, or the like would be so helpful. I am glad to be a part of this group and will post a writeup on our methods, setup, modules, success and pitfalls after this whole process is done. Lots o' learnin to do yet. Thanks Eric.

Best way to structure information for optimal performance

I am not a developer but a very hands-on subject matter expert.

Having been badly burnt by poor performance in the past, I am trying to pre-empt performance issues. Please suggest what is the ideal way to build the site: through taxonomy, content types (CCK) or what?

Expected load:
50-500 users logged in. Approximately 10 times as many anonymous. This may increase further.

Taxonomy:
1500 terms with ten or so cross references:

For example:
Vocabulary 1: all animals
Vocabulary 2: all countries

Jacksonville.com and the Morris site management system

I've previously mentioned that we at Morris have been working on a standard configuration to support moving all of our newspaper sites to Drupal. We began by jumping into the deep end of the pool with our biggest and most complicated problem (oops, I mean newspaper): the Florida Times-Union. We threw the switch Wednesday morning and made the new Jacksonville.com site live.

We do plan to release code, templates and configurations, but we're not nearly ready to do that yet. We have to move on to rebuild the Topeka Capital-Journal's website, CJOnline.com, and evolve a standard setup that we're happy with. Meanwhile, I've been blogging about some of the details, and you can follow along.

Newspaper Drupal Site from The Roanoke Times

Hello all,

I wanted to pass on a web site we built in drupal geared toward a story we are doing on a new $60 Million Art Museum that is opening here in Roanoke, VA next month.

Guide to the Taubman Museum of Art and Downtown Roanoke

The plan is that this special site will be updated as the area's excitement builds toward the museum opening on November 8.

Also check out the very cool Flash Interactive.

Feel free to check it out. Let us know what you think.

Thanks,

Testdrive new norwegian Drupal-based newspaper before launch

In a few weeks we are going to re-launch our newspaper, and the new site is based on Drupal5. We are still running the install on one of our desktop machines running Ubuntu, so the performance is not close to what we except from the final product.

It would be great if some of you could take a look at the site, and tell me your first impression.

Journalism students convergence website

Hi everyone

I work for the University of Sheffield's Department of Journalism Studies as IT Officer. For the second year running I've developed a convergence website. This year using Drupal.

We run postgraduate courses in print, broadcast, web and magazine journalism and for the past two years have added a convergent element to the courses, as we understand (as does the rest of the journalism education community) the importance giving students a relevant and broad understanding of new media within journalism.
