This is the fifth year that Drupal has participated in the program, bringing the total investment made by Google in Drupal through the SoC to <strong>over $400,000</strong>. This investment has resulted in numerous modules and core improvements, but more importantly it has brought in many long time contributors to the drupal project and helped keep numerous other contributors engaged and active in the community.</p> -<p>As usual we had way more great proposals than we had slots, but for the first time we have a <strong> father-son team (Jim and Jimmy Berry) working on SoC projects!</strong> Jimmy Berry actually convinced his dad to apply. We always try and expand the Drupal family/community with each Summer of Code, but the variety in projects and students of this year takes it to a whole new level!</p> -<p>This year's Summer of Code projects <strong>focus on integrating Drupal with other APIs</strong>, improving and <strong> enhancing many module suites</strong>, and helping to build <strong>new functionalities</strong> that will help keep Drupal at the cutting edge of what's possible with a CMS. Most of the projects still require co-mentors, and we'll be trying to connect these students with the community in a real world setting, so if you're interested in helping out with community bonding or code review, or even if you just want to keep tabs on the SoC progress, join us over at the <a href="http://groups.drupal.org/soc-2009">Summer of Code group</a> - it's not too late for you to help out!</p> -<p>Please help me in thanking Google for their support of Drupal and all Free &amp; Open Source Software projects, and please welcome our Summer of Code 2009 Students.</p> -<p><a href="http://drupal.org/node/440838" target="_blank">read more</a></p> - http://drupal.org/node/440838#comments - Drupal 6.x - Drupal 7.x - Wed, 22 Apr 2009 20:27:39 +0000 - Alex UA - 440838 at http://drupal.org - - - Support Drupal by Voting in the Webby People’s Choice Award Competition! - http://drupal.org/node/436948 - <p>The <a href="http://www.webbyawards.com/webbys/current.php?media_id=96&amp;season=13">nominations</a> for the 13th Annual <a href="http://www.webbyawards.com/">Webby Awards</a> were recently announced, and they include a number of sites built in Drupal!

Yesterday, I wrote about <a href="http://buytaert.net/drupal-7-usability-update" rel="nofollow">the progress that was made on Drupal 7 usability</a> -- the community has made a ton of incremental improvements, while Mark and Leisa have been preparing mockups and wireframes that provide significant over-arching improvements to Drupal's ease of use. Combined, I believe these efforts could make Drupal 7 a great release. A release that the Drupal project needs since our competitors are catching up in terms of functionality and flexibility. Likewise we need to catch up in terms of design and usability. It is my belief that we can develop a user experience for our project that is game changing, and that completely resets people's expectations both for Drupal and our competitors.</p> +<p><a href="http://drupal.org/node/474338" target="_blank">read more</a></p> + http://drupal.org/node/474338#comments + News and announcements + Drupal 7.x + Drupal News + Wed, 27 May 2009 15:38:54 +0000 + Dries + 474338 at http://drupal.org + + + DrupalCon Paris: Early Bird registration now open + http://drupal.org/node/468634 + <p><a href="http://paris2009.drupalcon.org"><img src="/sites/all/themes/bluebeach/spotlight/drupalcon-paris-early.jpg" alt="Register now for Drupalcon Paris 2009" align="right" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em;" /></a></p> +<p>Almost 3 months have passed since Bonnie and her team performed the ultimate party trick: materializing a 1400 people conference out of thin air. </p> +<p>In the meantime many of you have been organizing camps, launching client projects, training new developers, contributing new modules and crafting beautiful designs.

Drupal was selected as a development platform because of its robust and extensible framework and excellent integration with Flash/Flex applications. The high quality and availability of third-party modules greatly helped in the decision, as well. We found that Drupal is an excellent choice for managing virtual worlds with virtual goods and currencies.</p> +<p>The heart of Digital Dollhouse&rsquo;s business model is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_goods" rel="nofollow">virtual goods micro-transactions</a>. A member can visit the online store (which Digital Dollhouse calls the &ldquo;Boutique&rdquo;), purchase an item and then play with it in a virtual dollhouse (which we named the &ldquo;playarea&rdquo;). <a href="/project/userpoints">Userpoints</a> proved to be a robust and outstanding solution for all of our virtual currency needs. Digital Dollhouse is also greatly indebted to the developers of the <a href="/project/invite">Invite</a>, <a>Buddylist</a>, <a href="/project/votingapi">Voting API</a>, <a href="http://ubercart.org/">Ubercart</a> and <a href="/project/userpoints_ubercart">Ubercart Userpoints</a> modules.</p> +<p>In 2008, <strong>Jesyca Durchin</strong> and and <strong>David Schnepp</strong> of <a href="http://digitalplayspace.com/">Digital Playspace</a> chose <a href="http://exaltations.net/">Exaltation of Larks</a>, a development and design firm in Boston and Los Angeles, to lead the development of Digital Dollhouse.

In the RAW program, draft versions of each chapter are released as the author writes them. The initial book chosen for the pilot was <a href="http://www.packtpub.com/drupal-6-javascript-and-jquery/book">Drupal 6 JavaScript and jQuery</a>.</p> +<p>At the end of March, Packt sent the finished book to the printers. The final version, improved by copious feedback from the Drupal community, is now available in both <a href="http://www.packtpub.com/drupal-6-javascript-and-jquery/book">e-book and soft cover</a>.</p> +<p>Packt typically offers a discount of 10% to all Drupal.org users (as I understand it, that offer is also good for <a href="http://www.packtpub.com/drupal-6-module-development/book">Learning Drupal 6 Module Development</a>). But the community's involvement has been great on this project. To say thanks, Packt is allowing me to share my discount code here. To get <em>15%</em> off of the purchase price of this book, order the book from <a href="http://packtpub.com">PacktPub.com</a> and enter the following code in the promotional code box during checkout: <strong>DrupalJSjQ15</strong>.</p> +<p>Packt also <a href="http://www.packtpub.com/article/packt_open_source_project_royalty_scheme">contributes a portion</a> of every book sale back to Drupal.
