Well, DrupalCon Barcelona tickets are out and as expected they're quite disappointing pricing-wise:

  • Tickets range from 775€ in early bird - without knowing the program - to onsite, 1330€.

  • Minimum wage in Spain for 2024 is 1134€, to put in perspective how unreasonable the pricing is for locals.

  • Student ticket is 485€ in Europe, it was 50€ for DrupalCon Portland.

I really dislike how DrupalCon has became an elitist event.

So attendance is quite restricted to those:

  • Company sponsored. Almost exclusively the same big companies we're all thinking about.

  • Your session got selected (they're selecting WAY less sessions this year for DrupalCon, matching the expectation of less attendees).

How does this help the mission?

Btw, once again for the ones in the back: Student tickets are 485€. The annual academic fee for public universities in Spain is around 1000€.

I guess ambitious site builders need ambitious wallets.

We're currently having issues with the community instance, as reported by some users, the ingress and pull processes have been lagging during the weekend.

We've restarted the services and it is slowly coming back to normal but we have this issue too often now to ignore it.

We believe after looking to it for a bit with the help of NITEMAN (https://www.drupal.org/u/niteman) that the bottleneck could be PostgreSQL, for the time being we've increased the memory but I think we will need more actions

It seems the Sidekiq container lags after a few days running, we've found that GitLab and Discourse use the same software as Mastodon and some users have identified the issue as well:

https://meta.discourse.org/t/very-slow-sidekiq-issue-with-large-queue-due-to-massive-numbers-of-unread-user-notifications/140716

AND

https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/administration/sidekiq/sidekiq_troubleshooting.html#investigating-sidekiq-queue-backlogs-or-slow-performance

A baby first step to be able to add custom PostgreSQL config is this issue: https://github.com/Drupal-Mastodon/mastodon/issues/4

Help is greatly appreciated!

markconroy,

Lots of agencies want to contribute more to , but don't have the time due to client work. Let's fix that.

15 reasons to be excited about Drupal's new Starshot initiative (www.hojtsy.hu)

Drupal project lead Dries Buytaert just unveiled the Drupal Starshot Initiative and I couldn't be more excited! Starshot is all about putting users first. Enhancing Drupal core with additional components tailored to everyday users of the interface. Technically, it builds on Drupal core's robust foundation, utilizing Automatic...

I'm not sure why folks in the community are confused about how regular people and small organizations are finding the product hard to use after years and years and years of Dries pushing the project to be "enterprise-level".

Maybe instead of , we should call it where we try to correct the gigantic mistakes that we made in the past.

@jurgenhaas @mikemccaffrey I'm sorry I don't have the source bookmarked and indexed for easy retrieval, but I distinctly remember communication about upgrading from Drupal 7 that suggested moving to something other than Drupal for simple sites.

It was because it was "official" that it was memorable.

It was around the same time as the "Drupal is for ambitious websites" slogan, which further reinforced that Drupal isn't for simple sites.

@DaleTrexel @mikemccaffrey I do remember that as well, but such that it was a community initiative who did that, not one of they individuals or bodies mentioned above.

@ultimike Hey, I didn't know you won the Aaron Winborn award! That's massive! And VERY well deserved! Thanks for being my agent since 2014 with the Module Upgrader!

@phenaproxima thanks and happy to be of service. I'll be on the lookout for my agent fee. 🤘

: We're building a distribution but not calling it a distribution, including initiatives that we were doing anyway, to make it easier for users to do things quickly, but we don't know exactly what those things will be or how they will be implemented, but it can all be done in 8 months, because we are going to solve our governance problems by bypassing our usual governance process.

phenaproxima,
@phenaproxima@drupal.community avatar

@mikemccaffrey Yeah, I agree there. It’s critical that this stuff be sorted out. It’s being discussed in the GitHub and on Slack if you have any ideas; all input would be welcome.

DaleTrexel,
@DaleTrexel@drupal.community avatar

@phenaproxima @mikemccaffrey That's one of the biggest problems with this. Surprise! We have a major initiative that's been in the works, in private! Go on a scavenger hunt if you want to participate!

Where is the communication plan to help people learn about what is going on and how to contribute? There's a lot of people who've been disillusioned with Drupal's corporate focus. How do you plan to draw them back?

Hlavní přednáška od zakladatele Drupalu na letošním DrupalCon Portland přinesla důležité oznámení. Spolu s brandem se částečně mění i koncept Drupalu, kormidlo se stáčí více k low-code řešení a k juniorským vývojářům. Drupal se stane uchopitelnějším, zároveň neztratí nic z toho, proč jej mají rádi zkušení tvůrci webu.

Nachystal jsem souhrn těch nejdůležitějších bodů z přednášky.
