[drupal-docs] More article/story type content

[Steven Peck]

Marketing section.  Certainly Drupal needs marketing and success stories.  All this kind of stuff does is provide a nice reference for reading.  It can also help provide the framework for someone's proposal to sell Drupal as a solution to their boss/co-workers/etc.

Subject: [drupal-docs] More article/story type content



Adagio wrote up another handbook item which definitely falls in the
category of article/story type content:
http://drupal.org/node/20350

Here is his log message:
I wrote this in an effort to convince a group to use drupal instead of
writing their own system. I then thought it might be useful somewhere
on drupal.org as I suspect many do make, or attempt to roll their own
system instead of using drupal or something similar. Hope it is.
Perhaps it could be modified into sort of "the case for Drupal".

Again, great material, but not really appropriate for the handbook. It
is an opinion piece. Anyone from the Drupal.org core want to comment
on whether you think there would be a home for this on the site?

As I mentioned, I'd like to see categories similar to the following,
submitted via story module and going into the queue:
* Best Practices
* Case Studies
* The Case for Drupal (which might also include Open Source, etc.)

Of course, authors could post it on their own sites, but this would
provide an incentive to contribute good high quality content back to
Drupal.org, and also allow us to keep this good stuff centralized.
