[HLUG] Drupal 6 or 7

[dicegeorge at hotmail dot com]

just had a email from the site developers:

[[We have no plans to upgrade it 7 - we would only do that if TLIO 
requested signifcant further work, and we felt that 7 was more 
appropriate that 6.

At this stage all the websites we have built recently are made with 
Drupal 6, which still seems to have a slightly better range of 
contributed modules available, although I think the core of 7 is better 
than 6 in several ways.
