Designers, developers and administrators from Spain, Netherlands, Austria and Germany are working on a special distribution of the Drupal Content Management System that makes it a lot easier to set up your own multi-user, multi-language, multi-purpose internet platform. This distribution is strictly based on the latest drupal-release, but will contain several special features...

- A simplified installation procedure: just click and go using your new platform! You don't need advanced unix administration skills in order to set up your Content Management System...

- Free hosting, free webspace and free database access granted by D-A-S-H as long as your website is non-commercial. This offer is designed for grassroots activists struggling against racism, xenophobia and exclusion.

- A customized setup that reflects the needs of media activists and works out of the box: preconfigured modules, built-in multimedia support, gateways to i.e. the V2V network, as well as advanced search facilities. You don't have to spend a lot of time on researching what modules and extensions might be useful...

- A ready-to-use configuration that pulls in content via RSS feeds from existing platforms and allows you to publish selected items from the first moment on... So you don't have to deal with an empty Content Management System.

If you are interested in joining that development or testing the beta-version of the release, please contact us or have a look at http://cms.d-a-s-h.org
