Drupal

took the time to go through a lot of issues on drupal.org, to take a large step back, and to recall the entire awesomeness we added to Drupal 7.

bootstrap.inc (2,700 lines) includes functions that are available on EVERY Drupal request.

This author starts to go through the Drupal code base a little like we envision for Definitive Drupal's Inside Drupal chapter.

But only gets as far as bootstrap.inc so far!

Contributing to Drupal by helping module / core developers.

Doing a triage on a particular issue queue relieves the developer(s) from tracking all issues in their queue. Others have checked the issues for validity and completeness. This would mean a bug is a bug.

Here at Istos we would love to see a set of Drupal 7 modules that provide support for the complete OStatus stack and see where FOAF ssl could fit into that. The first step we are working towards at is to provide support for Activity Streams for the Drupal 7 port of the Activity module (thanks Scott!). Then we would like to combine these with the PubSubHubbub work to have a working example of Drupal users across Drupal sites subscribing to each other's activity streams.

The Display suite module is an API which other modules can use to store and manipulate display data for objects (nodes, users, comments etc). Modules implementing this API automatically get an interface for adding build modes, fields and plugins either through code or via the UI

Timeline Map was built as a Drupal Views 2 style plug-in. It is based on the Google Timemap API. It allows you to load one or more datasets onto both a map and a timeline simultaneously. Only items in the visible range of the timeline are displayed on the map. Timeline Map displays data represented in the timeline as markers on Google map.

Profiler is a set of helper functions that aid in creation of Install Profiles. It allows you to quickly and easily create new install profiles, as well as have 'Sub' Profiler Install profiles, where one Profiler Install profile inherits from and extends another Profiler Install profile.
