Drupal Fit Community Spotlight: Dries Buytaert
Dries Buytaert is the creator and project lead of the Drupal project. In recent years, he became the president of the Drupal Association in 2006 and co-founded Acquia in 2007. While Acquia remains his main focus, Dries donned the mask of the relentless crusader in the fight against spam and co-founded Mollom in 2008.
As if he weren't busy enough, Dries is a father of two, Stan and Axl, and recently moved with his wife, Karlijn, and children from his home city of Antwerp, Belgium, to Boston, Massachusetts.
After some chitchat about Boston, the thriving Greater Los Angeles Drupal community and his recent Drupal in a tablet world post, we jumped into the interview.
Christefano: Dries, I'm really grateful that you put time aside for this.
Dries Buytaert: Yeah, no problem. I definitely want to help with Drupal Fit.
