LakeDrops Drupal Consulting, Development and Hosting: A new chapter for the Drupal Association - and why I want you in it
A new chapter for the Drupal Association - and why I want you in it
The Drupal Association is changing CEOs, and the community reacted with the intensity it usually reserves for controversy. Jürgen, who sent the DA a formal four-page letter of concern in May, makes the case for constructive engagement over outrage. Leadership means disappointing half the room on almost every decision - disagree with choices without turning decision-makers into enemies. The practical call to action is the 2026 board election. Become a member now to earn the right to vote. If you are already a member, vote. Show up on the quiet days, not only when the alarm goes off. A transition is rare - a moment where the direction is genuinely open.

Droptica: What to do after Drupal 7: new website, Drupal 11 migration, or another CMS?
Official Drupal 7 support ended on January 5, 2025 - yet many organizations still run sites on it in 2026. The real question is no longer "should we update?" but what platform you want for the next 5-10 years.
A practical decision guide: rebuild on Drupal 11 or Drupal CMS, migrate content, switch CMS, go static, or buy time with extended support - plus a prep checklist for pricing and board-ready options.

Planet PHP
ezSystems are classy folks
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...
