DRUPAL CAMPS IN SOUTH AMERICA
Famous beach Copacabana and football are the most frequent associations when we think of South America. Well, there are plenty more things there, that’s for sure. Drupal Camps are one of those. In our world tour we already touched continents like Europe, North America, Asia and Africa. In the exact same sequence are continents listed from one with the most Drupal Camps (Europe) to the one with the least Drupal Camps (Africa). We expected to find South America between Asia and Africa, but for the first time, we were wrong.
Our assumptions were so wrong, that it was difficult to process everything at first. Moreover, it was even more surprising that we think that Drupal is losing its popularity in South America. We will give you one of our explanations, which we think has firm foundations, as well as some potential explanations for the present situation, which we think might be true. But since we don’t know the whole context, that reasons will only serve as hypothesis.
This year’s Drupal Camps in South America
It’s hard to believe, but in cases of North America and Europe, we actually have to leave out some of the Drupal Camps. That’s definitely not the case here, because all we could manage to find was one Drupal Camp that took place this year in South America. One! Even Africa had more (meaning no disrespect to that continent). With such poor event management, Drupal will not gain on its popularity.
