Plenty of newspapers are developing their CMS around Drupal. Could we needlessly be duplicating efforts? Let's compare notes and ideas about what makes a good newspaper CMS.

Keep an eye on the board, I will post several times where we can all hook up. If there's enough interest we can do an after hours meet up too.

Also magazine companies as well....we use Drupal for www.foliomag.com and are developing additional sites as well...

Good idea

I did www.qctonline.com and the owner is always looking for new ideas, so I'd love to participate in this one.

Well, publishing is a big interest of mine so I'm certainly interested in a BOF for it. Thanks!

I'm developing a magazine site as well (harvardmagazine.com).

Perhaps we should change the name of the BoF to newspaper and magazine CMSs?

I'm looking to see if we can create a PitchFest where we can all work together to find ways Drupal can be used as a solution for a number of challenges facing journalists. From simple to extremely complicated. The last thing I did in Drupal was http://www.smartdecision08.com (not sure how much longer I can afford to keep the server running)

We are going to be talking a lot about what we do for publishing sites so I would love to find a chance to participate in this one.

RE:

We should make arrangements to get together and hang out at some point during the event. Any one got any yime, place ideas?

At the Danish Daily Information we've used Drupal for some time now (we have a writeup). I would love to share war stories and ideas. And hey - I'm sure you know - we have a group: http://groups.drupal.org/newspapers-on-drupal

See ya!

I'm deploying solutions for magazines and newspapers (print and web). Would be interested in hearing how other people are handling various issues we've encountered. And happy to share how we've overcome a few ourselves.

As we get closer I will set something up. Glad to see some familiar faces. Johs, I owe you a drink!

CMS meeting

Hi All,
Keep an eye on the BOF board that is usually outside of the one of the meeting rooms. I will post a couple of times where we can all get together. If you want to meet after hours we can do that too. Email me: kaiser.eric@gmail.com if you are interested.

Will keep an eye on the board as well.

I've been quiet over at the Newspapers on Drupal group for a while, but I have some interesting things to tell about the web-to-print stuff and integration with InDesign I'm working on. I'll keep a close eye on the BoF boards :-)
