Could you ask if Ian sees wordpress as inferior / used for different types of projects than drupal.

* [nickthorley](http://twitter.com/nickthorley)

Why not use drupal for all projects and drop wordpress / custom builds

Would be interested to know what drupal version they use and when they will consider 8 - 12 months or longer

Would be interested to know about their development process from dev to live

## NodeSquirrel Ad

Have you heard of/used NodeSquirrel?

Use "StartToGrow" it's a 12-month free upgrade from the Start plan to the Grow plan. So, using it means that the Grow plan will cost $5/month for the first year instead of $10. (10 GB storage on up to 5 sites)
