Right now I am giving time to the learning curve required by the Views module.
Views and CCK look like essential for any web portal with Drupal. According to
the knowledge I have, I can figure out that I can easily fetch 5 top stories from
the news and events content types. <br>
<br>
Organic Groups module looks awesome from managing groups along with
permissions. <br>
<br>
Now what I am really looking here is a kind of module that helps me in creation
of hierarchical content for each user. e.g. a user creates four content nodes,
then each node could have 3 child nodes each. That node could be of any type.
Say Video, Gallery Pages, Class Notes, Resume etc. Permissions over each such
content created by user is very important. As for example a student should not
be able to edit the content created by other student or a society-head of the
college.<br>
<br>
Also I am looking for a way there so that I could list each user's space with a
URL like "<a href="http://collegedomain/studentpages/studentname"
target="_blank">http://collegedomain/studentpages/studentname</a>". <br>
