International web agency with exceedingly exciting projects is looking for student cyberinterns. We offer a possible share in successful projects, but more importantly you gain experience and get a great letter of recommendation/whatever you need for internship credit etc from what will be a very high profile set of projects. And as all work is remote, you work according to your schedule - so long as you get the work done there is no set number of hours or time commitment necessary.

I have a fairly robust Sports site, based upon vbdrupal and vbulletin 3.7. The forums are quite active, and we're getting some traction with the user base using Drupal, but it's pretty obvious to me that it's a very different kind of user who would be attracted to what we're doing with Drupal.

If you're interested in getting involved with helping us with the Drupal effort, feel free to contact me by email:

The October review meeting of the Knight Drupal Initiative saw three new proposals accepted by the community.

• Rob Loach
  Distributed Micro-Blogging -- $40,240 to implement the OpenMicroBlogging specification as a Drupal module, in addition to the creation of an install profile that makes setting up a distributed micro-blog easy.
