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.
