While this article raises a number of thoughtful questions about the social implications of the Drupal community's evolution, it includes some misinformation (both because it misrepresents the data that are easily available and because it lacks data that are not easily available). In the </em><a href="#corrections"><em>first part of this post</em></a><em>, I look at the specific information presented in the article and provide some more depth, including some first-hand information about </em><a href="https://www.acquia.com/"><em>Acquia</em></a><em>, since I work in Acquia's Office of the CTO. In the </em><a href="#mitigate"><em>second part</em></a><em>, I explore how we can mitigate some of the concerns the article raises.</em> </p></div> </div> </div> Tue, 10 Mar 2015 03:11:53 +0000 xjm 3 at https://xjmdrupal.org
