Before you start

We're considering using drupal for it's version control functionality, - any comments on the quality/usefulness of version control would be appreicated.

Also, I have a 150 page word document that needs to be imported/converted into Drupal - any thoughts on the easist way to do this would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance for your feedback.

I have created a directory above the web root to insure that confidential files cannot be accessed outside of an authenticated session.

For example, if the web root is

/var/www/html

my directory is located here

I'm contemplating using Drupal for my town's official web site. I would like to have each user (person) have their own login, but would like some equivalency or grouping of users.

For example, there might be three people in the Accounting office. Let's say the people are Jane, Bob, and Mike. Let's say there's a book on Accounting Procedures. I would want Jane, Bob, and Mike to be able to add/edit any page within that book - no matter which of them created the page.

Is there a cross-posting module for Drupal? I would like to be able to cross-post node content to LiveJournal, if possible.

Thanks!

Can anyone explain how I would make something like groups.drupal.org? what modules do I use?

And why is it completely separate from drupal.org? (e.g. searching here does not search groups.drupal.org, whereas if I simply use og all posts all searched on my main site.)

I am actually looking into starting my first development and am wondering if Drupal would be a good choice or if it will be too advanced for myself. I love the looks of it and it sounds to be an amazing tool.
