NodeStream - A Drupal distribution for newspapers

Dick Olsson 4 July 2010
Type:  Not planned session

NodeStream is a new Drupal distribution aimed at modern newspaper sites with focus on flexible publishing.

This session will highlight some technical and architectual challenges developers are facing when building modern newspaper sites and how we solved them in NodeStream using the big four - Panels, Views, CCK and Rules. This session will also cover the integration between NodeStream and Newspilot, an editorial publishing system used by the majority of all daily newspapers in Scandinavia. The integration is built on top of the Services and Deploy modules. Finally we will talk about how we chosen to package NodeStream with the Features module, Drush Make and a custom install profile.

Type:  Session in official program

Learn why the newspaper VF kicked out the .NET based EPiServer and chose the Drupal based NodeStream. Also see how NodeStream seamlessly integrates with editorial systems.

Christian Edwertz (business developer) and Odd Råberg (web editor) at the daily newspaper Värmlands Folkblad (VF) will tell you why they moved their on-line edition - VF.se - from the .NET based EPiServer to the Drupal based NodeStream. You will also see NodeStream demonstrated; and how seamless it can be integrated with a third-party editorial system.

Why VF.se chose NodeStream/Drupal
