The Drop Times: Accessibility Contributors Discuss Continuity, Governance, and AI Ahead of GAAD

Ahead of Global Accessibility Awareness Day, contributors associated with A11yTalks and the Drupal community discussed how accessibility initiatives deteriorate when governance, training, and operational responsibility are not sustained over time. The discussions also examined the role of AI-assisted development workflows and why open-source communities often became early spaces for accessibility collaboration and inclusion.

PreviousNext: Keywords to Context: Semantic Search and Retrieval-Augmented Generation with OpenSearch

Keyword search struggles with natural language and exploratory questions. Daniel walked the DrupalSouth 2026 audience through how OpenSearch and Skpr enable semantic search that understands intent and meaning, and how Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) transforms results into clear, human-friendly answers grounded in your actual content.

PreviousNext: PreviousNext wins four Splash Awards and a third consecutive Best in Show at DrupalSouth Wellington 2026

Last week, the PreviousNext team headed over to Wellington for DrupalSouth 2026, and what a week it was.

by ana.beltran /

The highlight of the week was the Splash Awards - and this year, we are honoured to have won:

  • Best in Government with Cancer Australia for the GovCMS PaaS project we did in collaboration with Paper Moose
  • Best in Show with Cancer Australia
  • Community People's Choice Award - Adam Bramley (jointly awarded to Nicole Ritchie)
  • Hall of Fame - Lee Rowlands

Congratulations to Lee and Adam! Both deserved the recognition for their active work with the Drupal Community.

The Best in Show win for Cancer Australia makes this a remarkable run. PreviousNext has now won Best in Show three times back to back. Here's the full picture:

Wellington was also a milestone for Skpr's, which officially launched in the New Zealand market at DrupalSouth. If you haven't seen or heard about Skpr yet, now is a good time!

From there, it was all about the Drupal community. We spent the week reconnecting with familiar faces, meeting new ones, and having the kinds of conversations that don't happen over email.

We had six PreviousNext team members take the stage this year:

We were also thrilled to have Lara Saunders from Bond University join us at DrupalSouth this year. It's always great to see clients engage with the broader Drupal community.

We're incredibly proud of the team - and grateful to the clients and community who make this kind of recognition possible. See you all next year on the Gold Coast!

ezSystems are classy folks

cover
Last week I helped the folks at ezSystems debug some APC problems they were having. The problems ended up being a 64bit architecture problem (they have uber-fast Opterons) and the bug is now fixed in 2.0.3.

Today I received Python & XML from them (off my Amazon wishlist). Thanks guys!

On a side note, my wishlist seems borked. The list I get when I search on my email address or name is not the same one I can edit when I log into the site.

PHP april fools...

1st of April 2004 get's to it's end and I guess it's time, to summarize the recent April fools a bit. Not that I think anyone in the world believes in them, but some were quite funny:

1. Changes to case sensitivity in PHP.
Alan Knowles announced that PHP will change to the studlyCase API and therefor will get everything broken by changing established functions.

2. IBM takes over Zend.
Myself hacked a little article about IBM taking over Zend to make PHP a compete of Java.

3. The first PHP virus has been seen.
Wasn't there one last year, too?

4. PHP has been overtaken by Micro$oft.
Mhhh... a little bit unreliable, if they had been taken over by IBM this morning... Maybe one should first look, what others wrote...

5. And finally, PHP4 and 5 showed their real faces...
Take a look at a phpinfo() output!

I guess I missed some, so feel free to comment on this entry, if you found another!

PHP Virus Attacking Web Hosts

Symantec have a report of the virus here. I've yet to see any of the PHP news sites picking up on it but, using a virtual host account, managed to deliberately expose some PHP scripts to it. From examining the infected scripts, what's disturbing is once infected, every tim...
