Drupal Workshop, Galway

I've spent the weekend in Galway, learning about and working with the Drupal content management system and creating various bits and pieces of websites. It's the first time I've more than theoretically contemplated making production use of someone else's content management system, rather than rolling my own - and I must admit I've been quite pleased with the capabilities and reliability of Drupal.

Thanks to all involved in the workshops and talks. With the help of various people I was able to deploy multiple sites on Ubuntu - and I promised I'd make the documentation for multisite available to Addison Berry, so I'll publish that shortly (once I remove my copious spelling and grammar errors ;) )

For now, I have the Balbriggan Ar Aghaidh and Balbriggan Community Childcare websites to build, and if I can figure out a sufficiently simple method of migrating my historical blog postings over, this website could also do with an upgrade.
