IQSS site now 'Drupal-ized'

January 25, 2008

You are currently viewing the IQSS web site, as ported to Drupal. Drupal (pronounced /ˈdruːpəl/) is an open source modular web framework and content management system. We hope that porting the site to Drupal will allow us to present very dynamic content - and allow much more collaboration on writing and editing content.

Please let us know if you find problems or errors on the site, or have any cool suggestions!
