Last week we launched the revamped Case Studies section on drupal.org. More improvements to layout and filtering are planned. This section can be a great help for people evaluating various solutions and figuring out how Drupal can help them. It can be a great marketing tool for Drupal project as a whole.

For this to be a success, we need to regularly populate this section with high quality case studies that will be featured on the Drupal.org homepage. We are looking to build a team of dedicated people who will work on Case Studies section on a constant basis, particularly writers, editors and marketing professionals.

You only need to commit to spending 1 hour per week on this initiative, though if you want to do more, that's great!

What exactly you could be doing:

This summer the Drupal Association is tacklng a number of initiatives to make drupal.org awesome and to improve Cod for use at DrupalCon. To help complete these initiatives we're looking for a few good developers to jump in and help out. As an open source project there are many ways you can be a part of the team. Review the projects we're working on and choose the one that's right for you:

We all know that Drupal is an amazing framework for building the next generation of web and mobile applications. Unfortunately, the rest of the world does not know this...yet.

To fulfill its mission to “Communicate the benefits of the Drupal software,” the Drupal Association is launching a new Marketing and Branding Committee to collaborate on the creation of marketing materials and tell the world about our amazing project and community. Having a marketing committee inside the Drupal Association means we can address, promote and support everything from DrupalCon to Drupal.org.

We are looking for members, volunteers and a chairperson for a new Marketing and Communication Committee.

There's a new initiative in the wind to upgrade our own Drupal.org site to version 7, and look out, its flying on its own!
