Installation profiles
Installation profiles are a feature in Drupal core that was added in the 5.x series. The Drupal installer allows you to specify an installation profile which defines which modules should be enabled, and can customize the new installation after they have been installed. This will allow customized "distributions" that enable and configure a set of modules that work together for a specific kind of site (Drupal for bloggers, Drupal for musicians, Drupal for developers, and so on).
meetü Game Platform
Introduction
This is the installation profile for the first public release of the meetü platform from the Open Publishing Lab (OPL) at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT). The alpha version of meetü debuted at RIT’s 2009 “Imagine RIT Innovation and Creativity Festival”, and has been through several development iterations before becoming available in this profile as a release candidate.
In addition, several of the concepts behind meetü, along with parts of the meetü codebase, are based on the OPL’s original PHP-based “Social Networking Game” project that was featured at Imagine RIT 2008.

Agaric Starter Installation Profiles
The starter profiles package from Agaric Design Collective is both a rough quick-start for a fairly generic Drupal site and a starter for developers to make their own install profiles (or variations within this one).
Feel free to use the issue queue for feature requests. We hope that this start will help the Drupal community come up with a base set of install profiles for Drupal 5.
Currently this installation profile just enables some modules (contributed modules are commented out at the moment so this profile can be tried without downloading any modules), makes a couple content types, makes a taxonomy vocabulary for an issue campaign, creates a role, and changes the name of anonymous users to Visitor.
Planned features include creating some pages with path aliases, setting permissions, and making several install profiles that simply use include files, in an attempt to make mix-and-match install profiles to share functionality. Oh, and adding blockquote to Filtered HTML input format.
This is a beta release pending the a rearchitecture to make it modular. See for reference Agaric's notes relating to installation profiles.
DrupalEd
The long term goals of DrupalEd are to support a variety of different installation profiles to meet different needs within schools, universities, and learning organizations.
Conference Organizing Install Profile
This distribution makes it easy to organize conferences through a website. It enables the following features:
- Conference management: Publishes pages for conferences that includes descriptive and logistical information (location / directions). Admin interfaces make it easy to create and manage conferences. Allows administrators to create multiple conferences per site.
- Registration: The registration process makes it easy for users with or without accounts to register for your conference. Custom registration forms can be created (supported by webform module) and registration data can be displayed in a table or downloaded as a csv file. Administers can also register attendees by hand.
- Scheduling: Supports multi day and multi track conference scheduling. Daily schedules are laid out on an easy to browse daily schedule that displays sessions in rows for each track track and height and position according to their time. On the schedule page users can check off which sessions they will be attending and their personalized schedule will then appear on their profile for others to see.
