Before you start

Following an interest expressed earlier, I just finished reading the first part (on drupal) of "Building Online Communities with Drupal, phpBB, and WordPress" by Robert T. Douglass, Mike Little and Jared W. Smith. I was really impressed, by the book and by drupal. The book went a long way in giving me confidence to try Drupal - I will use it for http://www.gov20.info

Here are a few things that I was looking for and found out in the book (you can find my questions after):

I have to set up an extensive (=1000 questions) medical survey website and would like to know if drupal is ok form my needs.

I have set up some testing drupal sites but have some more questions:

- can I set up multiple page survey's? (webform, survey)
- if not, is there a way to make one page survey's chain up on posting (post a->show B, post B->show C?...
- are there any security measures I schould take to protect data?

thank you for helping out...

I recently came across some bittorrent modules for drupal. One of them is a tracker, the other treats torrents as nodes. It all sound very cool except I am a bit confused. First, they are not within cvs. Ok, I think but still... Then, I read that digital bycycle has created a bittorrent module (months ago) but has not released them because of piracy concerns, that is, people doing illegal file swapping with the module. Fair enough, it's their module. But, I know torrents are easily trackable and the music industry actually like this, so I don't get their concern.

I'm setting up my second Drupal website and I have started with the 4.7 release candidate. I just installed massmailer and it seems to have problems. I'm wondering if I am going to have many problems with modules not being compatible with 4.7. Would I be better off to use the newest version of Drupal 4.6 for now?

Thanks for your opinion!

Is PHP4 ok to have Drupal 4.6 and/or 4.7 running on it?
Thanks in advance for the insight.

Hi,
is it possible to have a content type "News" with nodes insides sorted by "last added date" (default sorting) and another content type "Companies" with nodes inside sorted alphabetically ?

Cordially,
