Drupal talk pdf and webcast

[Doug]

Hello:

Links for my talk on Drupal are up on Blu.org.  There is even 1 bonus
slide that provides a few comments on service providers and backups.
After the talk, I did a little more search on backups.  There is a
module that makes backing up the mysql database just a few mouse
clicks away.  One can still do the phpmyadmin way, but this approach
automatically skips the cache files, a nice feature.

Updating all the modules required even more work.  Now there is a
module drush (for DRUpal SHell) that can update many modules easily
(drush update).

The world of open source is never perfect.  Even though I updated my
core drupal modules to 6.13, the status report says I am running 6.9.
There is a module somewhere that is confused, but I will not spend the
time to find it.
