Description
COMM WG would like to develop a form system for organizations/individuals to submit news stories, events, and press info.
For Events and News Stories that will updated (whether COMM WG does that for organizations or organizations do that themselves) on the ussf2010 website we would like the drupal forms expanded to include the following list of text boxes and larger comment boxes.
We would like the Press Release form (don’t know if this can happen within the drupal or just create a separate page which people will have a link to) to send the information to the COMM WG by email; the info could also be stored remotely.
