Use Drupal to empower your OSS project community
Fri, 07 Mar 2008 09:00:00 GMT
When I started my tenure as marketing lead for the Haiku project in 2006, my highest priority was to renovate the project's Web site. Haiku had been using a custom-coded site which was showing its shortcomings as the project and the community grew in size. The admins wanted a new site that was easy to add content to and maintain, preferably based on an open source content management system (CMS) with a proven track record. The Web team chose Drupal 4.7 for the task. After working with the web team and a few other contributors for a few months, I built Haiku a new Web site that included not only more content, but most importantly more participation from the community. A few months months ago, when I helped start a Haiku user group in the San Francisco Bay Area started, I set up the NORCAL-HUG Web site using Drupal 5.0. In both cases, I learned how to use Drupal as a tool to empower communities, so that they become more participative and engaged in your project.

DIAGNOSTICS

       In case of an error, projdel prints an error message and exits with a non-zero status.

NOTES

       projdel deletes a project definition only on the local system. If a network name service such as NIS or LDAP is being  used  to	supplement
       the local /etc/project file with additional entries, projdel cannot change information supplied by the network name service.
