Karen:

The newest versions of OpenPublish boast RDFa support and ahead-of-the-curve features for the Web 3.0 movement. So why should online publishers care?

The Node and the Page

Joshua:

Drupal can be used to build so many different kinds of cool things that, as developers, we sometimes forget that the users of our sites - and, more importantly, our clients - don't see their website through the same eyes that we do.

OpenPublish 2.0 and Beyond - A Labor of Love

OpenPublish OpenPublic Acquia Distros

Jeff:

As one of the very first widely adopted and professionally created Drupal distributions, OpenPublish has been an active growing project now through 2 major releases and over 8 minor releases since we first released it in January of 2009. OpenPublish has had a good run so far in 2010 with lots of exciting developments to share. As its creator and maintainer, Phase2 Technology has invested over 3,000 employee hours into this effort. I hope this post helps explain a bit about why we think that effort has been worth it.

The changing Drupal community

Mike:

With my voice still recovering from Drupalcon SF, I've been thinking a lot about what I learned. The most surprising and significant thing I learned is that the landscape of Drupal has changed in drastic ways since I first started using it 4 years ago. Even since Drupalcon DC last year, the community is different. Standing at our booth last year, a few people stopped by with curious interest. After a few minutes of small talk, most folks would mosey on to the next booth with the same ambivalent inquisitiveness in which they had found us. Not this year.

Big Drupal: Ten Trends for the Enterprise

Jeff:

As the Drupal community and lots of newcomers all descend on San Francisco this week, I am making just one (maybe not so bold) prediction: This conference is the tipping point. Drupal is officially big. Why is this all happening now? It is likely a combination of many things: maturity of the product itself, size of the installed base, growth in community popularity and participation, lack of affordable alternatives for comparable web 2.0 functionality, etc. I actually prefer to view it more as the maturity of Drupal as a platform through which the Drupal technology community is pushing Drupal forward - potentially straight into enterprise software territory. Here is my "top ten style" list of the technology trends I see fueling this growth.
