Drupal 7 - Easier and more powerful than ever.

Ready and able to drive your most demanding project with ease.

Built for both high-end performance and ease of use.
A new era for open source content management is here.

It's that good.

Tell me more

After two and a half years of development by over hundreds of contributors, we proudly present Drupal 7: the best version of Drupal yet. With a refined and more intuitive user interface and hundreds of enhancements under the hood, Drupal has never been more powerful.

  • Easy to use

    A totally revamped administrative interface lets you and your audience navigate functionality with ease.
    Update modules and themes directly from within admin.

  • Flexible content

    Define your own content types with the new Field API.
    Add custom data fields not only to content but also to users, comments, taxonomies and more.

  • Images and files

    Drupal 7 supports image handling out of the box.
    You can mix private/public files and store things directly on alternative filesystems such as S3.

  • Built to scale

    Support for advanced caching, master/slave replication, reverse-proxy and content delivery networks.
    Handle more anonymous traffic with lazy sessions.

Time to party!

The release of Drupal 7 will be celebrated around the globe on the same day: January 7 2011. From large commercially funded parties to livingroom bring-your-own parties: the fun is everywhere. No party yet in your country? Then announce one and ask for people to help you organizing. With a bit of effort, we could make it possible to have a party in every country!

For more information on the new Drupal version, read the full release notes!

Let's celebrate Drupal!!

We will be enjoying Dinner, Drinks, Apps and good conversation for the evening, and really look forward to seeing you all there!!

It IS still definitely happening.... not sure the extent of the madness, but some of us will be there...

Since there are three locations (facebook, this group, and the d7 release party site) to "signup" and our tradition of actually signing up for meetups/events, there's no telling how many might make an appearance.

I have got several emails from concerned parties asking the same thing. I know there's a handful of our "non-normal" crowd that may make appearances, and a handful of our regulars for sure!!!

And I started typing this long before Michelle said that "I will be there!!"... :)

I'm there if I'm still standing...

I've got this cold that seems to have taken out half the state. I'm among the walking wounded, but if I can make it, I will.
