Moving Forward With The Knight Drupal Initiative

Earlier this spring, the Knight Foundation let us know that our proposal to the Knight Drupal Initiative was accepted.

We are equal parts honored and excited, and work is underway.

Our project targets community media, and seeks to lower the barrier to entry for communities looking to collaborate with other like-minded groups via the web. One of the uses for our work will be within journalism, but other uses include collaborative creation of open courseware.

To be clear: this project will simplify the process of creating, distributing, and using open courseware. We want schools to spend less money on textbooks, and our work -- which will be freely available to all -- will support that goal.

As the project progresses, we will update this space with tutorials, status updates, etc. This page collects our Knight Drupal posts, or you can also subscribe via the feed.
