Dharmatech is a value-driven boutique software engineering and technology company committed to providing impactful, innovative solutions.
Dharmatech offers a variety of services:
Dharmatech has been involved in the Drupal community since 2007. With every passing year we have increased that involvment by submitting bug reports/patches, providing support on IRC and the forums, and by presenting at local Drupal User Group meetings. We see Drupal being the ideal platform for CiviCRM and continue to be active in that community as well.
We developed and continue to maintain three contributed modules:

Comment #1
dharmatech commentedWe never heard back on this request, do you need more information from us?
Comment #2
AjK commentedHowever, just looking at your track (http://drupal.org/user/64968/track) makes it difficult for admins to tie up exactly what it is you have directly contributed.
Try to provide direct links to actual contributions (patches supplied, etc) rather than a statement that's difficult to verify. More directly linked to information you can supply the better chances you will have of being noticed by an admin.

Comment #7
Bojhan commentedGive it a bit of time I guess, all Drupal people who are responsible for these types of issues are at Drupalcon.
Comment #8
dharmatech commentedAny progress on our request? Here's what's changed since our previous comment.
Our case study w/Publius Project made it to the front page.
The avalanche forecast module was released and is being actively developed.
The ubercart/civicrm module was released and up to date.
Found a bug in quicktables and posted an issue with a patch.
Comment #9
Amazon commentedHi, thanks for posting and for your contributions. Right now this section of the site doesn't have a lot of stewardship. It's frustrating for everyone involved. Try not to take it personally, but we need someone to step up and champion the services provider section of the site while respecting the original intention to recognize businesses that contribute to Drupal.

gregglesIt has plenty of stewardship. When a company with obvious qualifications requests to be added it happens quickly.
The problem is that nobody wants to be negative or discouraging and tell a company "Not yet."
@dharmatech - In my opinion, not yet, but great progress. Keep those contributions coming. http://drupal.org/patch-bingo and http://drupal.org/bug-bingo are your friends.
Comment #11
dharmatech commentedWe are fine with someone telling us "not yet". What we would like to understand is what "obvious qualifications" are you alluding to that is not exhibited in the posts on this page?
Based on the description of the Drupal services page, we satisfy all of the requirements listed. For concrete examples of our contributions, see the original post and #4, #6, and #8.
It would be helpful if you could provide concrete examples of what we need to do that we haven't done already. It's not a matter of negativity or feeling discouraged. What is needed here is for the steward of the services page to be direct and clear so we can take action to satisfy the requirements and showcase our commitment to the Drupal community by being listed on the services page.
Comment #12
Gurpartap Singh commentedImpression is the requirement.
Comment #13
dharmatech commentedThanks for the response. What are the requirements for making an impression? Searching "requirements for making an impression" on d.o returned no results. However, with this post, it WILL show up in the search results and might help someone else the next time they are given the uninformative "Impression is the requirement" response.
Seriously, it would be helpful if someone could provide concrete examples of what we need to do that we haven't done already.
Comment #14
dharmatech commentedStill here, still waiting on a response from our last request of providing concrete examples of what we need to do that we haven't already done.
