As our project with Microsoft comes to a conclusion, it seems like a good time to take stock of what we've learnt and what the corporate giant itself might take away from the experience. For my part, I've definitely seen things from a slightly different perspective in this case study, and had a chance to play with some tools and technologies that I probably would never have bothered to pick up otherwise.

As previously mentioned we have been doing some work on a Microsoft sponsored case study to look at how well different parts of their technology can integrate with Drupal, and as a side benefit produce some tools that will be of use to charities and NGOs. The project has been somewhat irreverently dubbed project Dango, as in "Drupal And NGOs" (but also a tasty looking form of Japanese dumpling - Mori, can you bring us some back?) and it has been progressing at speed over the last few weeks.

Gordon Brown today announced a bold plan to seek full digital inclusion across the UK, extend access to non-personal data in a bid to embrace the future of the web and save truck-loads of cash by making government more open and effective. Obviously this is not simply because he wants his shares in Virgin Media to increase in value, nor because he is keen to try any and all ways to slash the massive national debt. It is also because it is time to re-think the way voters, service users and the providers of the service interact.

We've got some rather exciting news... We've been approached by Microsoft to take part in an interesting Drupal project. We're being sponsored to create a suite of modules that will allow for better integration and showcasing of Microsoft technologies whilst at the same time benefiting small NGOs.
