I'm working on a site where I wanted to incorporate a "headline" CCK text field into the title of the user's profile. I searched around for something to accomplish this, and found the Alter Profile Page module which did a nice job of making some simple aesthetic changes to the profile page, and figured it wouldn't be that hard after all to modify it, since it already was providing a change to the profile title. So, the attached patch does just what I've described.

The patch is token-module aware, and does two things:

1. Via a hook_form_FORM_ID_alter call it adds a new field set (see attached image) to the User Settings admin form for specifying a title pattern. If the token module is installed, the description is modified to indicate all tokens can be used, and provides the list in a collapsible and collapsed field set.
2. Then I modified the hook_profile_alter function at the end to evaluate the pattern. It's passed through a call to filter_xss before the title gets set, to avoid any cross-site-scripting problems that a dodgy user may have introduced in their input.

This year in my keynote at DrupalCon San Francisco, I mentioned that the elephants are coming. Well, earlier this week Capgemini, one of the world's foremost consulting providers with 95,000 employees, announced a new service, Capgemini Immediate. I'm pleased to say that they're using Drupal as a foundational technology for their new Immediate platform.

Capgemini Immediate is an offering which helps organizations to build and run on-line services. It consists of a number of preferred technologies (i.e., Drupal, MySQL, Salesforce, Lithium, etc.), best practices, and an ecosystem of preferred partners of which Acquia is part.

Capgemini Immediate is already being well received and making news. The Royal Mail, the national postal service of the United Kingdom, has signed a large six-year IT contract with Capgemini to transform their on-line services using Capgemini Immediate. With almost 200,000 employees, Royal Mail is the second biggest employer in the UK. Signing of Royal Mail received significant press coverage, including the Wall Street Journal.

The Capgemini stamp of approval, and the fact that Royal Mail will be using Drupal, is tremendous news for all of us. If successful, it could be an important milestone in the history of Drupal -- similar to when Dell and IBM decided to ship machines with Linux pre-installed in 2007.

Incidentally, Capgemini is using Drupal to power their own 95,000 person intranet.

Thank you for this really useful module. And it would probably be even more useful to have an option - show links in a block or in a node body like service_links module does. It can be reached by using hook_nodeapi I guess. Is it possible for you to implement this feature anytime soon? I'm not sure I can implement that myself.

I just started using this, and I would expect that when I create a new "individual" that I would be able to set the "Ascendants" and "Descendants" on the same content creation page, and that they would be ajax fields that pull from all of the other "individuals".

Technically, I'm not using it for family, but for school lineage, so I'll want to change it around eventually to input "teacher(s)" and "student(s)" but I don't foresee that being an issue.
For now I just want to know how to use it. I don't see any documentation on it either.

We all know that Drupal can work with Varnish, a HTTP accelerator that caches pages in virtual memory. Well, now Varnish uses Drupal too! Varnish Software, the company behind Varnish, just relaunched its site using Pressflow, a Drupal distribution with performance and scalability improvements. The site was built by Kodamera.
