[Ubuntu-PH] Customizing Drupal and CP-Union

[rick]

fellow free software advocates and ethusiasts,

The Computer Professionals' Union (http://www.cp-union.org) with its
advocacy for free and open source softwares has been conducting trainings to
different grassroots organizations and these efforts are slowly having
fruits...

Last february we conducted the first people's orgs boot camp on free
softwares, (http://www.cp-union.org/cms/?q=taxonomy/term/7) with focus on
drupal installation and introduction to customizations. This training
introduced drupal cms to a few organizations.

Recently, another org joins the list of orgs with successful (
http://www.cp-union.org/cms/?q=node/16) implementations of drupal.
Bulatlat.com (www.bulatlat.com) has reimplemented its old all html site into
drupal cms. This gives them flexibility in updating content, categories,
back-ups, and other drupal advantages. Bulatlat.com is the leading
alternative news website in the country.

During the campaign period of the yet to be concluded national elections,
gabriela women's party (http://www.gabrielawomensparty.org/) also deployed a
drupal site to help them in the campaigns.

In all these efforts, CPU volunteers have contributed significant role and
time.

We would like to invite everyone, knowledgeable of drupal or not, familiar
with free softwares or with their proprietary counterparts to join us in
CP-Union. Visit our membership page at
http://www.cp-union.org/cms/?q=node/4to know how.

Together, we will bring free softwares and ICT to help grassroots
organizations. We will eventually be meeting on 14 July 2007 to unite on
plans and tasks..

advancing ict for the people,

rick bahague
