<BR>
<B>When: </B>Thursday, April 15, 2010, 6:00pm-7:30pm (with reception to follow at 1737 Cambridge St.) <B>NB</B>: Not our usual time.<BR>
<BR>
<B>Details: </B> Dries started Drupal, a free and Open Source CMS, as a student at the University of Antwerp. Today, Drupal is used by more than 500,000 sites, including Sony Music, Warner Brothers Records, the New York Observer, Forbes, Harvard University, Amnesty International and the Obama White House. A dedicated community of thousands of active members have contributed more than 5,000 modules for extending Drupal functionality. <BR>
<BR>
In this presentation, Dries will talk about the history of Drupal, and give an update on Drupal 7, the next major version. <BR>
<BR>
<I>Please note</I>: The topic and material of this talk will overlap with Dries’s presentation at MIT in October 2009. If you were present at that event, you will be familiar with the Drupal history–but you are still encouraged to join us for this Drupal community talk and reception.<BR>
<BR>
