Head vs CVS

What is the difference between Head and CVS?

I just saw a patch I need to use, be committed to Head. Does that mean if I download the CVS version the patch will be there? or is Head a holding tank for things on the the way to CVS? I finally decided to stop pondering about this and ask.

Collaborative Book: Weights get messed up

Hi,

I installed the latest version of drupal (4.6.2) and I'm having troubles with the book module:
First of all I added a new user role (Tutorial Writer) with all the book module permissions turned on.
The problem is whenever such a user edits a book page, its weight is changed to 0 and the
ordering is messed up. Is there a way to prevent this default change of weights or in the worst case
to let those users change the weight of their book pages? Maybe my version of the book module
is not up to date, I hope someone can help me out here...

cron.php ?

what is up with cron.php? why would you want to set up a cron job to access a page that does what a commandline script should be doing?

and there seems to be nothing to prevent anyone from accessing the url.

am i missing something? why is this done this way and why is there no means of preventing unwanted access to this script by default?

A Tricky Situation

I have a dilemma that I cannot solve. The more I think about it, the more I attempt to balance the pros and cons, the more perplexing it gets.

The Current Sitiuation


I have a site running Invision Power Board that allows users to collaboratively plan and organize a national car meet. Lately, I've decided to switch this site to Drupal. Here is where my dilemma begins.

To Convert, to Integrate, or to Use Both


That is the question. My first plans were to convert the users and their passwords over so that the entire site - including forums - would be powered by Drupal. The drawback I see with this is major unfimiliarity with the users. While I like the Drupal forum set up, it isn't the 'Avatar-showing, post-counting, familiar friend' that Invision, VBulletin, and phpBB have become to so many people. I know I can add bbcode as an input format, but I don't want my users to feel like they're in an alien word, you know?

So then I thought:Hey...why not integrate the two?!. My thinking with this was to integrate the usernames/passwords so that they work across both systems, and only use Invision for the forums, and Drupal for the Pages, Stories, Comments, etc. That's when I realized what a headache and a lot of work that would be.

Next stop: Using both. The sure-fire wire to make things easy for the users would be to continue using Invision for the forums, and not allow comments or registerring of users within Drupal. I could easilly theme Invision to look right at home in my Drupal site. But again: here is where it gets tricky.

Newbie Question

Dear all,

First of all, allow me to apologise as after searching this forum, it seems this question has been asked many times before. However, after reading through the various posts, I find myself more confused than I was to start with.

To get to the point, I would like to install one copy of Drupal to: http://blog.domain.com which is then obviously using only 1 database and then I would like to set up multi-blogs as such:
