Before you start

Hello Drupal community! At my company we are looking for a document management system to primarily store our PowerPoint and Word training files, search them, and collaborate around them. They should be retained in their original format (we don't want to convert them to HTML and such). With our high-level requirements below, I'm wondering if Drupal will be able to meet our needs. I have searched around and haven't come across clear details so before I actual setup a server to play around with it I'm hoping others can lend some insight. I do have programming knowledge and would be willing to setup and tweak things, but don't want to build completely custom modules.

Requirements
-------------------------------
1. Primarily an internal content repository to start with expansion to external audiences later on (PPTs and DOCs are main content types)
2. Ability for content owners to upload readiness materials, update them, and archive them as required (only select individuals will be contributors and the rest consumers. Authentication will be through Active Directory)
3. Provide for content versioning with users able to track a deliverable's lifecycle
4. Ability for users to quickly find content including search capability
5. Ability for users to set email alerts on specific types of content

I want to build a site which could host my blogs along with games I could built with php/javascript & add jquery & my own css design.I am still a newbie & still unaware about the flexibility of Drupal. Is this right platform for me? Any advice would be appreciated...

Hi Guys - I am new here.
Quick Question: I am looking for some information like which and how many server services are used by Drupal 6 and 7 like SMTP etc.. Thanks

Hi,

I have a non-drupal, just HTML site.

I want to install drupal so that I can make some of the pages editable i.e. user should be able to add remove articles etc from one page.

How should I go about doing this?

Thanks in advance.

regards

I am thinking about moving my site from joomla to Drupal. Before I do can someone tell me if drupal would be a better fit.
