DrupalCon Chicago, 7-10 March 2011 • My SSD failed (windows failed to shutdown so it “cooked”). I lost my notes. I have now ordered a Mac (like the majority of the < 35 year old participants at DrupalCon) • Drupal has introduced a new software methodology before committing changes to the core to improve the speed (less post facto bugs) and reliability of development. • Drupal 7 is in the past, Drupal 8 is now the focus (although Dries confirmed it will only be released when Drupal 7 has had a life … 3-4 years) • Trying to get Dries to CERN in the second half of this year . • Design for Experiencewas a key message of one keynote • Lots of interesting modules, we need to put together the "professional set" that the "in crowd" use. • Things like Workbench? • Drupal is already a multi $B business
