Acquia keeps going 2.0: Commons in place
I learned about Acquia in early 2008, at the Open Source Think Tank, sipping some wine and talking about how to appropriate returns from the commons with its co-founder, Jay Batson. At that time Acquia’s business strategy was still in its infancy,  and it is interesting to look at how it has evolved with time.
To learn more about their business strategy when Acquia launched their social business software Commons 2.0 I posed few questions to Bryan House, VP marketing at Acquia.

One small correction:
“While Drupal has a relatively small development team working on the core” The link goes to ohloh.net which only tracks commits to version control. Drupal actually has a ton of people working on core, but only 2 at a time have commit rights.
http://www.drupalgardens.com/drupal7-contributors
Is a list of all contributors to Drupal 7 core.
Thanks!

Hi Jacob, thanks for heads up on this. I didn’t double check my old findings, actually relying only on Ohloh information. A definitely more accurate information can be elaborated using the drupal contributor analyzer, and a pretty recent write-up about contributors for Drupal is available too. The post has been updated accordingly.
