Community, OSL and Sun Jump to Drupal's Rescue 175

Posted by Zonk on Friday July 15, 2005 @09:31AM from the feel-the-love dept.

Robert Douglass writes "Drupal asked for help and received a major dose of it. Sun Microsystems has stepped up and donated a Sun Fire V20z server which will be the backbone of Drupal's new server architecture at the Open Source Lab. Furthermore, over $10,000 in donations were collected in a matter of a couple days (thanks to all the people who responded to the previous /. post!), plus thousands more in pledges from groups like Apress and CivicSpaceLabs... looks like the community loves Drupal!"

Remind me what Drupal is again given there isn't an obvious link to a "What is Drupal?" page.
Go to Google.com, type in "Drupal". Welcome to the Internets. :-/

either the new horsepower hasn't been put in place yet, or they need more money to buy better machines ;) (or optimise the software, duh)

or maybe it got a sudden bump of popularity somehow... can't quite think of what it might be...
