 Drupal is a free software package that allows an individual or a community of users to easily publish, manage and organize a wide variety of content on a website.
Tens of thousands of people and organizations are using Drupal to power scores of different web sites, including Features
· Collaborative Book - Our unique collaborative book feature lets you setup a "book" and then authorize other individuals to contribute content. · Friendly URLs - Drupal uses Apache's mod_rewrite to enable customizable URLs that are both user and search engine friendly. · Modules - The Drupal community has contributed many modules which provide functionality that extend Drupal core. · Online help - Like many Open Source projects, we can't say that our online help is perfect but have built a robust online help system built into the core help text. Available to you on your own site. · Open source - The source code of Drupal is freely available under the terms of the GNU General Public License 2 (GPL). Unlike proprietary blogging or content management systems, Drupal's feature set is fully available to extend or customize as needed. · Personalization - A robust personalization environment is at the core of Drupal. Both the content and the presentation can be individualized based on user-defined preferences. · Role based permission system - Drupal administrators don't have to tediously setup permissions for each user. Instead, they assign permissions to roles and then group like users into a role group. screenshot . · Searching - All content in Drupal is fully indexed and searchable at all times if you take advantage of the built in search module.
What's New: · Drupal has a new core theme: Bartik! · Numerous fixes to the upgrade path, including basic tests. Getting very close! :) · Numerous important security fixes. · Numerous accessibility improvements. · Setting up Private files is now optional, rather than required. · Registry made more fool-proof and robust. · Redesign of Field UI "Manage Display" screen, to reflect multiple view modes. Field UI screens are now also extensible from contrib. · Re-implementation of Overlay without jQuery UI, to address numerous critical issues. · User creation setting now defaults to "Visitors, with admin approval" for security. · Installation will no longer fail when settings.php is not present. Nice usability improvement. · Required modules are once again shown on the modules page. · Many improvements to input formats and filters. · Table prefixes are now per-database connection, rather than global.
