Drupal.org

In this webinar you'll learn how Georgia Tech's university library system, with more than four million downloads a year from 35,000 databases, transformed a dated design and hard-coded HTML/PHP website into a modern, top-shelf Drupal platform. The result is a highly-customizable and technologically advanced website that puts the Library in a leadership position among their campus and higher ed peers, and a model of an exciting partnership built on trust and collaboration. During the webinar expect to learn about the strategy, design, and development that went into building the new website.

What modules are being used for the Drupal Association vote in 2018? https://assoc.drupal.org/election/19/candidates

Original title: Move d.o. servers to an other country

Disclaimer: Added the part about the DA, since only moving servers still owned by an American company is not going to make a difference.

Given the new political changes and the changes to respecting the privacy of non US residents, it might be a good idea to move the DA and all hosting to a country that does respect the privacy.

Since I've been accused of trolling some clarification:

Why can't I show up via video at your hangout? There is no reason and that is why I want your vote to be on the board for Drupal. It is an office for those that want to serve people and look after the well being of the user groups (i.e the community).

Here's just 10 Great Reasons to attend this coming Drupal Nigeria Lagos user group

1. Networking and promotional opportunities
Being active in the local Drupal community is a good way to meet others, and supporting local Drupal events is a great way to foster the local community, as well as align your brand and expertise with the global Drupal project.
2. Employment opportunities.

Recently, the Association posted a discussion here in groups (https://groups.drupal.org/node/398548) which resulted in the Association registering Drupal.org to participate in TheDayWeFightBack (https://drupal.org/node/2188053). As we have discussed, there were technical issues we could have addressed differently (see the discussion: https://groups.drupal.org/node/407283), but we also heard from many community members who felt that Drupal.org should never be involved in any kind of political campaign at all.

If you have been on Drupal.org today, you may have noticed something interesting near the bottom of the page. At some point during the past 24 hours, the millionth user joined Drupal.org!

It's worth taking a moment to think about. A million registered users. 228 countries. 181 languages. And counting.

As Dries pointed out in his keynote at Prague, more than 1,600 people have contributed to Drupal 8. That’s nearly double the number of contributors for Drupal 7.

The Drupal community is truly global and it’s always growing, always moving forward, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

A week or so ago, Dries posted this

Which links to a number of draft charters for working groups focussed on different facets of the community, the software project, our tools and infrastructure.

Drupal is going to be spread out and exposed bigger than ever in Korea soon.

Drupal Camp Seoul 2012 is scheduled on Oct 6th 2-6PM for 100 seats and already more than 111 people signed up for 120 limit signup capacity.

Not many people ever heard of Drupal in Korea and this camp is not like other drupal camp in USA or European countries.
It is more like introducing Drupal along with other CMS.
I wondered if Drupal Association would be interested in supporting to spread out Drupal in Korea with this event.
One thing I thought was having video setup and edit and share/upload.
