CivicActions.com upgraded to Drupal 5

Submitted by doug on January 22, 2007 - 8:36pm

CivicActions shares the Drupal communities value of "eating our own dogfood." To that end, the very first website we upgraded to Drupal 5 is this website, CivicActions.com. Drupal Engineers were only a small part of the Drupal 5 upgrade, but we played our part. As a team we contributed over a dozen modules and several core patches.

I recently developed two new modules that are of great benefit to the Drupal community. The coder module is used by many Drupal developers to make their code better and was used to find literally hundreds of minor patches to Drupal core. The releasemonitor module is used to detect when new releases of contributed modules are available, and was very useful in detecting that we were ready to upgrade THIS website!

Thanks for all your work contributing not only to our website here, but also to the Drupal Project. This is some very yummy dogfood indeed!
