Well that was a breeze! Much improvement made to the already easy-to-use installation interface. Already I can see some great new jQuery features just by typing this blog entry on a base Drupal install.
I sense big things ahead for the Drupal Project, especially with Dries's new business venture and the demand for solid frameworks that are easy to use and easy to extend. Companies like the one I work for rely heavily on being able to offer clients an easy to use Content Management System. It allows our team to focus less on that aspect of our web projects, eliminating one more task.
