Today I am awaking to the last "official" day of DrupalCon New Orleans with a huge new wind at my back.

It felt like an appropriate time to post what is likely my last blog post as ThinkDrop Consulting LLC.

My partners and I have been in a whirlwind tour of the convention, spreading the news of our product, and our new company: OpenDevShop Inc. In order to focus entirely on development and hosting tools, I am closing up ThinkDrop Consulting.

We've been building the OpenDevShop platform since late 2011 for my clients and myself, and in January of this year, we incorporated.

Our mission: to make hosting, testing, and scaling websites as easy as possible; to make infrastructure management as easy to deal with as content; and to foster a community around these types of tools.

OpenDevShop Inc is a member of the newly formed Aegir Coop. The cooperative is a group of companies and individuals who have organized together to support and develop the Aegir ecosystem.

We are working hard to not only grow this business but to grow the Aegir community, both users but especially contributors. We have a lot of work to do if Aegir is going to live up to modern expectations of infrastructure management and deployment tools.

Today we have two Birds of a Feather sessions back to back at DrupalCon: one for OpenDevShop and one for the Aegir Coop.

The energy behind the Drupal Community has never been higher. Let's follow in their footsteps and bring together everyone that cares about better Infrastructure Management and DevOps.

Come join the Aegir & OpenDevShop communities in room 292 (AshDay) from 1pm - 3pm, and maybe later if they let us stay.

Please check out our new company website, opendevshop.com.

We will see you around the community!
