Hello, Drupal world! We are thrilled to be able to give you an inside peek at what goes into planning DrupalCons. Throughout 2016, we’ll share a series of posts, and a few webcasts, to show some behind-the-scenes aspects of DrupalCon. In honor of National Volunteer Week, this month's DrupalCon post highlights how an army of amazing, dedicated volunteers is behind every DrupalCon.

We are extremely grateful to the Association board members who contribute an enormous amount of time and are so generous with their knowledge and contacts in building a stronger Drupal community. Anyone who has ever served on or worked with a board knows that it's important, hard, and sometimes fun work.
We're thrilled that two more folks are joining us on the board. Help us welcome them both:
The Drupal.org Engineering team is on a roll with many new improvements, thanks to Drupal organizations who fund their work by joining the Supporting Partner Program. In March alone, the team made more progress on Composer for Drupal, content restructuring of the Documentation section, and better data insight into organizational contributions.
