Hey everyone, exciting news- tonight I had a great follow up conversation with the lead drupal developer at Ciplex, the web design firm we've been in talks with, and it looks like we will be moving forward shortly!

We spent a few hours going through our functionality spec document, and making sure we were on the same page. And it's looking like all is well. I'm really excited to be finally taking this step! This has been a good 7 months of planning, designing, fundraising, and then searching for the best team for our budget.

This will be a significant investment in our infrastructure and the future of this project, creating a key stepping stone toward the Collaboration Foundation. I hope to have contracts together and signed this week, then it's looking like the site will take 2-3 months to program.

Ciplex is located in LA, so I will be able to document the site development process as it goes, and look forward to sharing it with you.

More soon. best,
