Day Two: Morning

Posted on March 23, 2007 by agentrickard

The highlight of the morning was Dries' "State of Drupal" talk. The main thrust was that successful web projects disintermediate existing social structures. He suggested three things that Drupal could (or does) replace:

  1. The Webmaster
  2. The developer (with Views & CCK)
  3. The Designer

Dries

The other high point was Rasmus imploring Dries to drop support for PHP 4, so that he wouldn't be known as "the guy who dropped PHP4 support."

In other news, a very successful Lightning Talks session. As Dries said, there is a lot of innovative work going on.
