Thanks for following!

If we haven’t told you yet, thank you for following us on Medium! And if we have told you, thanks again.

Here’s your monthly recap.

Picking Up Steam

We’re moving closer every day to Georgia’s digital platform. This April, we started announcing the vendor partners we’ll work with on upcoming projects. We’ll continuously add to that page as we sign more contracts.

Meanwhile, 6 team members represented us at this year’s DrupalCon. They they met with industry leaders and our counterparts in other states, while learning about what’s coming next in the Drupal community. But more on that later.

For now, here’s what we’ve published recently.

What Do You Think?

We’re excited for this to be a 2-way conversation.

Do you address lots of users on one site? Have you helped select collaborators? Did we make you think, “Hmm, yeah, not sure about that…”?
