Presentation by Elizabeth Raley, Project Manager and Certified ScrumMaster, CivicActions, at the Community Media Drupal Summit in Austin, Texas on March 9, 2012.

I'm proud to announce that I'm participating in the Season of Usability programme. SoU is similar to Google's Summer of Code, but is sponsored by Open Usability and has a focus on usability, not code, in Free/Libre/Open-Source Software. The goal of my SoU project is to improve the usability of drupal.

As part of the programme I need a technical mentor (a drupal developer) and a usability mentor (usability expert). Mentors help to maintain the direction of the project. Zoey and Ron, information architects at CivicActions, have offered to be the usability mentors. Now I'm seeking a technical mentor. The technical mentor will help to ensure that the results and deliverables will be valuable to the drupal community and integrated into the Drupal project.

We are very proud that Civicactions has become a gold sponsor for the upcoming DrupalCon in Barcelona! By contributing Civicactions show they are aligned to the community and are dedicated by contributing code and money.

Read the story on drupalcon and dont forget to say "thank you". BTW: if you know any sponsors, please let us know.

CivicActions will be gathering in New Orleans from Feb 1 through Feb 8.
Since we are a virtual firm we have regular "meat space" gatherings a
few times a year.

We are hoping to find some Crescent City Drupal folks and have a
DUG-like meeting and social gathering on Feb 5 or 6.
