I have basically the same requirements as Rodney for the main site I run. With the version 3.6.0 release of digArticle the Ventrian News Articles migration is built-in. Nice!

Now I just have to figure out the best way to handle redirection from exiting NA articles to digArticle content and digNuke will have a convert.

@digmike I am an avid fan of NewsArticles and have done great things with it but I have a client now that wants some big features like the normal module structure which cannot be done in NewsArticles

As you mentioned everything is templatable so that is a great plus  but here are some more thing i need, are these included in DigArticle

1. Templatable pagination - I can rewrite using jQuery as I do in NA but prefer if its templatable
2. Custom Fields - a great feature of NewsArticles is the ability to add custom fields, can this be done in DigArticle so can i add custom image/integer/text etc fields that can then also be used in the templates
3. Reuse image in templates - if i have multiple uploaded images for an article can i reference specific ones in the template eg: [image:4] imagethumb:4:100:100]
4. Reuse of article data in Article content - in the summary and detail of the article can i reuse specific of the article content eg:  in summary I could have [imagethumb:100:100] rest of summary and in detail i could have detail [image:5]more detail[image:8] and some more detail. ( this is not in NA but this could be a great feature for better managing how the articles look with images )

Hmm - the updates do look good.

One thing I would like to know - I'm looking for a replacement module to Ventrian PropertyAgent - I use it here for classified poker games but it's a little inflexible on somethings (don't get me wrong, it's the bets module out there I have found for my needs so far!).

Basically I have a heavy requirement on GeoLocation. So user's start looking for a poker game by a map or through a country search. Then they can post a game and search on key fields etc.

I was wondering if DigArticle could replace this - user's publish games as "articles" which have a location and custom fields.

It's all about the maps and location....  (I have a nice interface for games on a map already - I just need to make sure I can export the games and geocode them as I do now). It's more the publishing of new games.. this is the user experience/UI I want to improve.
