My name is Leigh Carver (leighc), and I’m the new Content Writer for the Drupal Association. It’s going to be my job to help make sure our communications are consistent, interesting and valuable, and to help populate Drupal.org and our social media channels with informative content that helps Drupalers at every point in their Drupal journey.

Preparing the materials for the monthly board meeting is a lot of work, but it's a great chance to reflect each month on the momentum of the Association and the community. Looking back, March 2014 was particularly exciting as the community and staff are pushing forward in several directions at once with considerable momentum. So let's get down to it and share some of the highlights:

Though DrupalCon Latin America - Bogotá, Colombia is just under a year away, we’re already getting the ball rolling on planning and organization— and we need your help!

We’re issuing a formal RFP asking all interested parties to participate. As with every other DrupalCon, we’re seeking visually striking designs that showcase the Bogotá community, as well as the Drupal Community.
