Genomeweb case study published

By moshe weitzman - Posted on 22 December 2009

We finally posted our case study of the Genomeweb data migration and site build to the home page of Drupal.org. We hope it informs and educates new Druapl site builders about how we handled the more technically interesting parts of the project.

Also of note, is the GIVEBACK section at the end of the case study. There, we itemize all of the code and other contributions that we gave back to the Drupal community as a result of the project. I hope this becomes a standard feature of similar case studies and blog posts. Let's keep promoting the open source ethos as the project grows.
