- Bio
Dries Buytaert created Drupal in 2001 and has led the software project ever since. He has guided it through rapid growth and to widespread acclaim. Dries is able to motivate the burgeoning community of users and developers by communicating 'the big picture' while paying careful and measured attention to the technical details essential to good software development. These two factors have been crucial to Drupal's popularity and success to date.
Together with Steven Wittens and Dries Knapen, Dries formed the Drupal Association in 2006. His role as association president is to provide leadership and direction to its board of directors. Just as he has done in the Drupal software project, Dries will guide the Drupal Association by setting its goals, finding ways and means, and coordinating its efforts.
