Importance of Membership

Today we announced a fundraising program designed to build out new improvements on drupal.org. I'd like to take a few steps back and tell you why that I think a membership program is important to the Association and to the Drupal community. You can choose to become a member of number of organizations and an even larger number of organizations will accept your donation. So why should you become a member of the Drupal Association, forking over your hard earned cash? 

Portland here we come

The Drupal Association is proud to announce that we have chosen Portland, Oregon to open a permanent office. A few minutes ago I signed on the dotted line for an office in Portland, Oregon located near Portland State University (PSU) at the PSU Business Accelerator. The move to Portland brings us closer to many other OSS projects and the OSU Open Source Labs.

The Drupal Association one year later

This coming November will mark the first year that the Drupal Community has had full-time employees dedicated to supporting them and the project. A year ago the Drupal Association (then known as DrupalCon Inc.) hired Neil Kent and Megan Sanicki, two employees dedicated to DrupalCon and helping to grow the support programs we offer the community. Since then we have expanded our staff, offered new programs, and continued to build a strong Association to support the ever growing Drupal community.

The Association and DrupalCon are growing

I am very excited to announce that the Drupal Association and DrupalCon have hired two great folks to work on our worldwide team; Paul Suway and Isabell Schulz. These two amazing folks will help our growing team continue to refine the DrupalCon and Drupal Association member experience and put in the solid foundation for a strong Association. The Drupal project is growing and we're building out a great team to support this amazing community!

Please help me welcome Paul to the Drupal Association and Isabell to the DrupalCon team!
