It would be wonderful to have someone else’s experience to lean on, but if not, I am confident that I can build a version of Buoy for Drupal within a few months, much as I did for WordPress. All it will take is having reliable shelter and food for the duration. That’s the much harder part. Writing code is easy for me, by comparison. Unfortunately, my current situation does not include reliable housing.
Nevertheless, in whatever moments I do have the wherewithal to do so, I think it’d be helpful for me to refamiliarize myself with Drupal and update my understand of its internals using tasks that are smaller than porting Buoy from one platform to another. To that end, I’ve been looking at the tasks in the Edgeryders Dev and Testing and will hopefully start contributing some smaller pieces of work to Edgeryder’s own infrastructure. I see this as a way to create a win-win-win situation.
