The Drupal Association is saying goodbye to two board members and welcoming three new board members who will join the Drupal Association Board.
The Drupal Association extends a sincere thank you to Nikki Flores and Nick Veenhof for their service and dedication, not only to Drupal, but to the Drupal community. Thank you for everything you both have done while on the Drupal Association Board! Your time spent on the board made such a difference to the future of the Drupal project, and we thank you all for participating with grace, thoughtfulness, and insightful contributions.

It is potentially worth noting that the hiring manager has a personal attachment to potatoes due to a prized family gratin dauphinois recipe. We are confident this has nothing to do with the decision.
Given our status as a fast-moving startup, we want to ensure that each new addition to the team helps us achieve our goal of increasing our revenue by 500 percent every two weeks. The sack of potatoes, covered in unsightly green sprouts, has proven it understands the importance of growth.
To the Editors: In his otherwise excellent essay on the “tragic flaw” in Shakespeare’s tragedies [“No Comfort,” NYR, June 6], Fintan O’Toole falls into the all too common trap of attributing this critical idea to Aristotle. But the words Aristotle uses, hamartia and hamartēma, often mistranslated as “flaw,” do not refer to a character’s psychology […]
