Reference needed on Drupal training program

Is anyone familiar with Lulabot's training seminars?

I am a brand newbie to Drupal and PHP, though a quick learner and somewhat literate ;)

I need everyone's help deciding whether this seminar is for me: I am redesigning our websites (which are elementary at best) and want to move to a more sophisticated and evolving solution with an eye toward functionality and community orientation.

We are a newspaper company with 5 print editions and online versions, have decided Drupal is likely for us.

I need to learn how to use Drupal, how to design etc

Drupal 6.0 beta 2 released

Update: Drupal 6.0 Beta 3 is available now!

Our first Drupal 6 beta version was released just over a month ago, so given the large number of usability improvements and bug fixes that we've added since then, we're proud to announce the release of the second beta version of Drupal 6.x for your testing. This beta version includes all the latest security bug fixes as released in Drupal 5.3 and 4.7.8. The first beta announcement provided a comprehensive list of improvements made since Drupal 5.x, so in this announcement we'll concentrate on how you can help ensure that Drupal 6 is released as soon as possible and is as rock solid as the previous Drupal releases that you've grown to love!

The most notable change is that we moved the long time favorite Drupal.module out of the Drupal package. It will instead be available as the contributed Site network module. This was done because Drupal 6 has a more secure and widely supported solution for distributed authentication in the form of the OpenID standard.

We've also fixed a number of issues since the previous beta. We fixed numerous PHP notices, upgraded to jQuery 1.2.1, included a more secure solution for IN() queries, added schema based load and save functions, extended built-in AHAH functionality so developers can write AHAH code without JavaScript for different types of form elements, merged .schema files with .install files, made it possible for themes to override core and module CSS files and made it possible to have comment settings per node type, among a number of other improvements.

Drupal 6 beta ? Where ?

Hi,
think about the new visitor to drupal.org frontpage. How could he know that there is a drupal 6 beta running ?

If you want more people to help beta test, there should be a link to the beta on frontpage, or at least to a post about it.

Cordially,
Brakkar

Modify a Theme

I have picked a theme for my website but it only supports a column on one side of the page, is there any way to make this theme have two columns? It is the barroness theme. I appreciate any help I can get.

theme system module ?

i have just been reading up on some of the changes to drupal's theme system and the number 1 feature that seems to be king is the real seperation of php code from html/css code.

as a non programmer i m really in favour of this move. however, like i said i m a non programmer and was wondering if anybody out there was goign to take this new theme system one step forward and create a "custom theme module".
