on a dutch weblog paul molenaar is writing [1] about the possibilities to use drupal for a nation wide (that is, the netherlands) blog community. you might not know him or his companys, but both did a great job in starting the internet hype in the netherlands with a good search site (ilse.nl), a good news portal (nu.nl) and lots of other sites.
There is a lot of interest in rolling out national sub sites. DailyKos is considering doing it. MusicForAmerica.org has begun rolling out state sub sites.
Please count me in if there is a best practices possibility for rolling out multiple sub sites.
* John VanDyk's publish-subscribe would be the best way to tightly couple together sites. * a single user base (e.g. LDAP) and/or a federated identity system (e.g. SXIP) * N-tier architecture with load balanced web servers and clustered MySQL DB
Aren't you guys close with MfA? How are they doing it? Can't they write up a short note?
Sure. Josh Koenig did it, and he is on a road trip right now. We have a email out to him on this topic right now.
And I'm not sure what you mean by national sub site in regards to the netherlands. It sounds like they want one site.
Ahhh, I assumed they wanted multiple sites. Of course this could done with a single site.
Can a Dutch speaker get in touch with paul molenaar and ask what he needs?
