Open Source Drupal for the New Open Government  

,----[ Quote ]
| Today, Acquia, the enterprise guide to social publishing,
| announced a new âSocial Publishing for Open Governmentâ 
| program designed to give agencies a fast track to successfully 
| meet the requirements of the new Open Government Directive (OGD). 
| The Directive, sent by the Obama administration to the head of 
| every US federal department and agency, instructs agencies to 
| take specific actions to open their operations to the public, 
| with the goal of fostering more transparency, participation, 
| and collaboration between government bodies and citizens. 
| Acquiaâs new program is aimed at helping agencies implement 
| Drupal to meet these objectives.

Acquia 2009 retrospective

,----[ Quote ]
| Yesterday I shared my 2009 retrospective on Drupal along
| with some predictions for 2010. Today, I want to reflect
| on Acquia's 2009, as for obvious reasons, Acquia has been a
| big part of my life in 2009.
|
| [...]
|
| To deliver on the vision outlined in our roadmap, we
| had to raise more money -- no small thing given the
| downturn in the economy. Instead of reserving cash,
| Tom and I went out and raised an additional $8 million
| dollars in Series B funding, bringing our total funding
| to date to $15 million USD.

Drupal thrives in Taiwan

,----[ Quote ]
| After a while I discovered that there was even
| a Drupal Taiwan website. So I got in touch
| with the site admin and head organizer,
| Charles Chuang, and he let me know there would
| be a meetup in late December. The gathering
| would be at a local cafe in central Taipei and
| the topic would be new features, discuss
| strategy, and socialize to make new friends
| with like-minded souls.

Obama Team Challenges Web Developers

| Having rebuilt Whitehouse.gov on the open
| source Drupal platform, President Obama's
| new media team is calling on the open
| source community for new ideas and
| technology.

Should the White House Contribute to the Open Source Community?

,----[ Quote ]
| While this measure may not be an immediate
| cost-saver (5 different companies are
| involved in re-building and maintaining the
| White House web site), long-term costs
| should fall as government agencies are able
| to borrow from the greater Drupal community
| while incrementally improving on the
| websites code. But the question remains,
| will the Obama White House share some of the
| contributions itâs making to open source?
