General discussion

I have been developing a security incident response team following RFC2350 and would like to make this available to Drupal users at http://www.securityhive.com

Greeting,

Foremost, pls pardon my ignorance.

I'd like to build an e-learning portal (something similar to this: http://sg.myklab.com/) and am overwhelm with so many choices: Drupal, Geeklog, Mambo, PHP-Nuke, phpWCMS, phpWebSite, Post-Nuke, Siteframe, Typo3, Xoops...

I'd greatly appreciate if anyone can tell me if this is the correct way to go & better still some opinions, experiences and comparisions among those mentioned above.

Thanks again for your attention.

John Low

Some notes on the building of CodeZoo

Last week, O'Reilly (where I work) launched a new site called CodeZoo, which is a directory of free, reusable components for software projects. The launch was a big success, with an instant Slashdotting and a lot of fantastic feedback from early users, and Jason suggested I write up some of the things we learned while doing the project.

I'm sure this question has been asked before, but where can I find an easy way to download & install Gzip?

I just want to post here and express my feelings towards the drupal cms and community as for how great they both have been to me while designing my new website.
This was best imaginable outcome of what I ever wanted and needed from a management system for websites. It has been such a smooth integration with drupal its amazing. Everything I ever needed is already here and anything new is easily adapted. I'm truly amazed by the power of this extremly successful project. Drupal development team, thank you for making the internet a better place.

I'm running my site on Dreamhost. I was able to log-in and select the database tables and export with phpmyadmin, but the file that gets downloaded is very small. Something like 4kB. It's definitely not the whole database. I tried several times with different browsers and still the same issue. What am I doing wrong? Here is a link for a screenshot of my settings. Is this correct for Drupal installation?

Thank you!
