Drupal is now on the Rating Page on CMSMatrix

By chess-1 on

CMS Matrix is a site that compares different CMSs, and i would beleive many people come to drupal from there (at least i did).

To be part one of the CMSs that are on the ratings page, that particular CMS needs at least 10 votes.

Only a few days ago, Dupal didnt have enough votes, but when i checked today, i noticed that Drupal is now on the list, but unfortunately, not one of the top rated ones.

There are only 5 other CMSs on the list, so it wont be hard to knock them out if you beleive Drupal is good and vote for it.

DrupalART: Drupal for Artists and Musicians

By zirafa on

There has been a surge of interest lately to try and create Drupal-driven artist and music websites. I know many members of the Drupal community have been frustrated in trying to leverage Drupal for art and music websites because:

  1. Artists and musicians don't understand how Drupal could help them
  2. The learning curve for Drupal is too high
  3. Developers can't find other developers who are interested in using Drupal to create artist and music websites
  4. Information overload on drupal.org

As a result, I've launched a website to address the problems above: http://www.drupalART.org/.

SpreadFirefox.com gets hacked

By voipfc on

I saw this news at theregister.co.uk which is confirmed SpreadFirefox.com gets Hacked.

Could this have to do with some yet still present vulnerability in Drupal, or the PHP XML-RPC hack noted recently?

There is no indication on how it was accomplished.

Placeholder: EU Oscon Drupal

By bertboerland on

[admins, please don’t promote this page until its done, as long as this text is here, it is not :-) I will rewrite this page every now and then.]

[feel free to leave a comment here, if it is good I will delete it and incorporate it in the text]

On 17-21 October O’Reilly will hold an OpenSource Conference in Europe (OSCON EU) in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. There is a plan to have a mini Drupal-con there like there was on the FOSDEM in Belgium and the upcoming OSCON in Portland.

I (bertboerland) am trying to facilitate this event if enough Drupal coders, admins and users will show up or have an interest. The Drupal-eu-oscon event will be both for OSCON attendees and there will be most likely also some evening events for people interested in drupal but not having the opportunity to visit OSCON itself. This page will be the placeholder for all information about this drupal meetup in Amsterdam.

Goal:

The goal for the mini-conference is 4-fold:

  • To meet up with fellow Drupal coders and users,
  • promote Drupal by showing off the power of the code and the community,
  • connect with other OSS projects and
  • just have a good time!

The future Drupal server infrastructure

By dries on

The Drupal community has been growing steadily over time, and recently started to outgrow our shared, single server system (Pentium Xeon 3Ghz with 1 GB of RAM). The server hosts a variety of Drupal websites, including http://www.drupal.org/, http://cvs.drupal.org/, http://www.drupaldocs.org/ and a number of other sites.

As mentioned earlier, we have been talking to the Open Source Lab (OSL) at Oregon State University and they generously offered to provide free rack space, bandwidth, power, backup facilities and on-site support. OSL is responsible for taking care of some of the largest projects in the Open Source community, including the Apache Foundation and the Mozilla Foundation. In order to take advantage of this generous offer, we need to supply our own equipment. Our initial plan was to purchase a modest dedicated server to replace our current shared system. However, thanks to the success of last week's donations, we will be able to roll out a more sophisticated server architecture to support the growth of our community. Read on for the details, and an extra "sun-prise" ...
