In yet another repudiation of its predecessor, the Obama administration this week migrated the White House Web site to Drupal, the popular open-source Web site management software. By dumping the Bush administration's proprietary system and embracing software authored by the community and available to everyone, the consensus holds, the White House embodies the very essence of the new politics.

The 2.0 version of Flag contains the following improvements over the 1.1 version of the module: * Flagging for anonymous users (even with page caching enabled). Requires Session API. * Import/Export support. * Faster table indexes and schema. * Services module integration. * Activity 2 module integration. * More powerful trigger and actions integrations. * Flag access controls (flag only others/own content) and access API.

When used with ImageField and ImageCache, images may be inserted into text areas with a specific ImageCache preset. This module was previously known as FileField Insert.

The largest underground "movement" in the Drupal community is the desire for a shift in goals, which has been labeled Smallcore. This movement has been rapidly growing among Drupal developers, who instinctively understand the need for and advantages of such an approach, but up until to now there has not been any concrete and constructive communication to the rest of the world about why we feel this approach has merit. This article is meant to provide an overview of what we, as developers, mean when we bandy about the #smallcore tag, which unfortunately has been misconstrued as a desire to just rip out as much code as possible without any thought about our users. This is actually not the case at all, as #smallcore is intended as a way for us to better serve our end users.
