Bryght en Français

Continuing on with Raincity Studios' efforts to spread Drupal around the world, the Bryght Drupal hosting platform is now available in French!

From the order form to the install profile, Francophones around the world can now order, configure and host web communities in their preferred language.

Stop by Bryght.com/fr and sign-up for a 30 day free test drive and/or choose a no-cost/ad-supported site en Français or ... of course, choose English or Mandarin Chinese.

Bryght adds Mollom

The Bryght news doesn't stop with the French release! The scourge of junk comments is now obliterated with the addition of Mollom, a community filtering system designed to thwart unwanted comments.

This technology (developed by Drupal founder Dries Buytaert) is baked-in all new Bryght sites and will help content publishers avoid the hassle of gardening their comment queue.

Drupal Camp Montreal

In the wake of Drupal Camps in Victoria and LA, BarCamp Vancouver and of course DrupalCon in Hungary, the undaunted Raincity Studios crew is now heading east to La Belle Province for Drupal Camp Montreal.

Raincity Studios' CEO, Robert Scales and Production Director, Francis Pilon are both making the trip to their home province of Quebec to collaborate with Drupalists this coming weekend, Oct. 3rd and 4th.

Bryght en Français

With a French version of the Bryght Drupal install profile in the works, I suspect they'll have a chance to share with Francophone Drupalists seeking hosting and configuration in their preferred language.

Drupalists Koumbit are hosting the event and have a great plan in mind. They describe themselves as "a non-profit organisation which promotes the use of free & open source software by community groups in Quebec, Canada ..." Sounds very cool.

Koumbit are working closely with our man in Africa, Adrian, on the development of Ægir - the evolution of Hostmaster - the open source Drupal mass deployment project which is at the heart of Bryght Drupal hosting (see Adrian's presentation at DrupalCon).
