Of, By and For is a Drupal site aimed at discussing ideas for political reform in the United States. The site was created by Mitch Kapor, founder of Lotus and of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Joe Costello, who was one of the principals in the Howard Dean campaign, and Bart Decrem, who, among others, heads marketing for the Mozilla project. This Friday, September 24, the site will host its first live event, a conversation between Joe Trippi, the campaign manager during the Dean campiagn, and Mitch. Check out the site at http://www.ofbyandfor.org/.

"We looked into a number of technology platforms for Of, By and For and chose to go with a Drupal-based platform because it is open source, has a dynamic developer community, and offers a powerful and flexible platform for building online communities. The ease with which new functionality can be added to Drupal through new modules was especially appealing to us." -- Mitch Kapor
