A few of you had asked to see a presentation I made here at the University of Delaware. UD has been researching options for a content management system, including both open source and commercial. My first presentation on Drupal was very well received, and from what I hear, Drupal is the leading contender to be selected as "the" CMS. It is not yet clear exactly how it will be used within UD, although they are looking for a solution that scales well, from small number of users/hits and easy to deploy/maintain to more advanced enterprise applications. Hopefully, a decision will be made soon.

The above Google doc is a presentation I made just a few days ago. By no means am I a Drupal or PHP expert (I hadn't heard of Drupal until 6 months ago) so the presentation could be significantly enhanced, especially in regards to development. However, I am one of about 5 people across campus already developing Drupal sites at UD. Hopefully, some of you find this presentation useful.

John,
Thanks much for sharing this. I am going to share this with our CMS committee and Web Developers Group at UNC Charlotte.
Thanks, Mark
