Drupal as intranet
One of my upcoming projects is to get a staff portal up and running, one that will allow news to be posted, discussions in forums and allow our own custom code to be integrated.
I was going to repurpose Moodle for this (yes, wince with me) for the sole reason that most of our staff are familiar with it on one way or another. However, I’m being drawn towards Drupal, due to its content-orientated approach, massive support and ability to integrate custom code as modules.

i think drupal as certainly a no no as an intranet solution. at best you can make a static site with it, and it requires too much effort (chasing modules and what not). it just doesnt make sense with low priced tools like HyperOffice out there which not only allow you to quickly set up an intranet, but also create collaborative workspaces, manage access permissions, collaborate on documents, manage schedules and tasks and a lot more. drupal intranets seem like lose lose for me.
