According to the creator of Drupal, Dries Buytaert, "Drupal's flexibility and modularity enables organizations to build sites quickly at lower cost than most other systems. In other words, Drupal is a great match for the U.S. government".
This writer couldn't agree more and has always been a rather boisterous fan of Drupal. There is something about seeing this presidential administration open its eyes to the value and importance of open source software that brings a sense of pride and hope. Here's to hoping we see more open source technology being utilized in our government.
