Portals?

[Joe Rohn]

Hi Folks,

I have received some inquires about being part of a local community portal
project. There will be a number of different participants using different
methods of connecting and building the portal. Some using FrontPage, some
Dreamweaver. FrontPage extensions will not be used. The consensus is that it
will be done on a shared Windows server with the potential of possibly
growing to needing a dedicated one.

Portal would need the capability of utilizing .rss feeds, blogs, and forums
as some of the major parts. Static HTML pages will be built in the editors I
mentioned.

Anyone have any recommendations here as to a good portal package to use? It
will need to be quite robust as well as MS SQL driven.

Thanks!

Hi Rob,

Yes..thanks.. I have used Soop and actually still am... and it is very
good..but for this project I a was looking for other alternatives. I am not
too sure if Soop is a fit for this one, especially the blogging part.
Someone mentioned this to me:

http://communityserver.org/

I need to look into that more, apparently it is being used by MSDN blogs
