Relaunch drupalcontribution.org

Problem/Motivation

The Drupal Contribution platform was created primarily for the Mentoring group to organize and plan a variety of online and in-person contribution events (including DrupalCons). While still using for this purpose (including DrupalCon Pittsburgh 2023), most groups running contribution events are good with centralizing on https://www.drupal.org/community/events β†’ , using external platforms and don't feel the need to use or direct new contributors to an additional Drupal platform.

When Drupal Contribution (nonprofit org) β†’ launched as an entity to sustain community and contribution groups, it made sense to make better use of the site by offering to maintain, host, develop new features, and widen the scope to support and sustain the entire community.

Proposed resolution

Remaining tasks

  • Bring together folks interested/able to focus on website strategy
  • Work with Open Social team to get a sense of which features exactly are provided by their proprietary modules; evaluate against updated requirements; write up user stories for features we still need
  • Consider what implementation might look like on an open social instance and whether it might have any significant differences from implementation on drupal.org.
  • Evaluate roles/resources needed to manage and maintain the website
  • Finish Discovery phase (by mid-March)
  • Secure needed roles/resources
  • Figure out next steps
  • Make followup issues as necessary
