Several of my recent projects have involved Drupal, a high-quality content management system which makes it easy to get Web sites off the ground quickly, and add powerul features quickly. I frequently contribute patches to various Drupal projects; see recent posts from scottgifford on drupal.org to see what I've been up to.
The speed of development has allowed me to quickly bring up rich Web sites for projects like Locomatix Aura, and nonprofits, including the Consortium on Child Abuse and Neglect, where my wife is executive director. At the Genesee Free-Net, we are working on extending this to other nonprofits and community organizations.
Drupal has also developed my interest in PHP, which is quite a scrappy little language. Recent developments like Wietse Venema's Taint support for PHP and Suhosin give me hope that PHP will make real strides on its security problems in the next few years.
