Knight Foundation sponsors ISS

Wednesday, March 4th, 2009

At this year’s DrupalCon it was announced the winners of the Knight Drupal Initiative, a partnership between the Knight Foundation and the Drupal Community to provide funding for grant proposals that explore digital publishing to transform their respective communities.

I’m glad to announce that our proposal has been approved! Our proposal aims to develop ISS support in Drupal. This will allow people to create and share a personalized stream of information within their social network, helping them to filter and recommend articles to others interested in the same issues.

I would like to thank Jose Zamora and Ken Rickard for all their effort in this process!

Knight Drupal Initiative

The Knight Drupal Initiative is a partnership between the Knight Foundation and the Drupal Community to provide funding for grant proposals that explore digital publishing to transform their respective communities.

I’m glad to announce that my proposal has been approved to the next phase of the selection process. This proposal’s main goal is to build ISS support in the Drupal platform. Our specific goal is to create a social network for our university to help students and professors discover and share information with colleagues and society.
