Got some more time away from scarves, to polay with Drupal. I have two seperate installations, one of DrupalEd and one of Drupal 4.4.2. I am playing with the various modules and configuration options to try and find the feature set I like best. Installation of Drupal is exceedingly simple. Configuration is not hard, but there are many options and it does take a bit of time, playing with it, and reading the manuals and online forums to get comfortable with it.
So far I have spent about six hours on it and have one of the internal sites set up with about 90% of the features of MT3 or this MT installation. Drupal also has complex taxonomies, forums, multi-page story, file vault and online collaboration features. The more I play the more I like! Soon (after 4.5 is released) Drupal will be replacing the MT installation here and on Family Updates.
