TAKEAWAY: Drupal, the popular open source web content management application, was one of few open source vendors displaying at the 2008 Enterprise 2.0 conference but many believe open source solutions may play a critical role in Enterprise 2.0. Like many other content management vendors, Drupal is starting to advertise itself as a social publishing solution.
Some possible barriers for open source solutions in the enterprise could be a perception of deployment being more complex as well as fear of licensing issues. Drupal may also suffer from public perception that its offering is merely a content management tool rather than a social publishing tool, but Drupal is positioned well to be successful.
