open-source

Tonight I'm headed to a Drupal meetup for LA developers. I'm exploring options for deploying the next generation of our site. Looking for reliable developers to get bids.

The whole tech scene is changing so fast. Today I read that Facebook might be going Open Source to keep up with Open Social. I'm not sure what all this will mean in the long term. 

As our site moves more toward a social-platform in anticipation of the needs of the Collaboration Foundation, we have been looking to Drupal to give us an open and affordable way to provide many common social features. Drupal has always been one or two steps behind in terms of meeting these needs, although it has been getting better- hence one of the motivations for upgrading our site to a newer version of Drupal.
