Drupal 6.x

A non-technical colleague is looking for a tourist operator solution. I showed him drupal and it seems to be ideal for his online CMS requirements, but he's unsure about drupal being usable for his e-commerce needs:

On Saturday, June 23, the whole day is dedicated to cleaning up Drupal's issue queue. Our goal is to review all patches in the "patch (code needs reviewed)" state, and set their status to code needs work, duplicate, or ready to be committed. The issue queue is generally pretty slow, so those 400+ issues to review should be picked out before Saturday. It might also be helpful (and fun) to find someone to review with on IRC. If you can't agree with the patch, find someone in IRC to talk to.

We hope to make that 428 patches to be reviewed into 0.

Dear Drupal Community,

I've been thinking for a long time about switching some of my websites to drupal, but I don't want to spend a fortune to do it. So I will allow the readers of this forum to give me their observation about how this can be accomplished. First of all the websites are located at Black Conscious News.com http://www.bconnews.com and Black Conscious Network.com http://www.blackconnet.com

Black Conscious News.com is a content based website, while Black Conscious Network.com is an Online Community.

Black Conscious News.com
The website operates underneath a CMS (now defunct) and uses SSI language to syndicate content. It is one of the few sites you can copy syndicated code and embed it into your website. There is a lot of flexibility in how you can use this code. For instance, you can have headlines with or without pictures. You can make headlines bold, italic or regular. And the amount of formating that is used is endless.

Another interesting thing about this website is that anyone can register to become a writer or content distributor. All that is done is that a person register's and log into their account.

Hi

I hv a requirement where I need to build a CMS based website, but I also have lot of database driven content which I would otherwise have displayed using my J2EE application.

If I build my website using Drupal, how woudl I go about it? will Drupal let me host all my dynamic applicaions also??

Looking for someone to create for a functioning DHL Shipcalc addition (dhl.inc) to E-Commerce (5.x-3.x-dev), using the UPS Shipcalc (ups.inc) as a template.

It's not a big bounty, but if you can do it, we can talk. Give replies with estimated time of delivery and costs.

Thanks
