 <title>Battle royale on Drupal.org - Usability enhancements and development philosophy</title>
 <link>http://twogrunts.com/node/6</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://drupal.org/node/81053&quot;&gt;This post&lt;/a&gt; on Drupal.org seems to have ignited a firestorm.  I think &lt;a href=&quot;http://drupal.org/node/81053#comment-149288&quot;&gt;this comment&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://drupal.org/node/81053#comment-150388&quot;&gt;this one&lt;/a&gt; raises a few interesting points.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Drupal has challenges ahead.  Usability is an issue.  WYSIWYG editing vs. HTML input.  Work needed to get a useful, non-trivial website (trivial defined as anything beyond a simple blog site) up and running.  The list goes on.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>New level of hell for Drupal developers</title>
 <link>http://twogrunts.com/node/4</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://drupal.org/node/77487&quot;&gt;This post&lt;/a&gt; on Drupal.org is too funny.. and too true.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The red triangle refers to a forumla we&#039;ve developed that brings the greatest likelyhood of a large project going to hell. The idea of the red triangle is to ensure that the project manager is defacto non-existant. In the classic red triangle flow, the client, and designer directly order the developer, and the developer is given little to no leverage to refactor, or deny their requests. For best results, treat code and development as something like &quot;witchcraft&quot; -- like both witches, developers have magic powers; are not to be trusted; and often will pretend they can&#039;t do something because they are lazy. Our research has found that refusal to listen to warnings from developers is the quickest way to hell.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
