Voting just opened for the Popular choice prize of the Context.IO App Challenge on DevPost. We’ve submitted a Drupal module for the competition and it would be really great if we could win the Popular choice prize. We are however not asking you to vote to support us, instead we would like you to vote for the Drupal community: if we win the prize we will use it to prove to developer tool companies that Drupal is a market worth investing in. Should we win, we’ll split the 5k$ prize money over 2 sponsorships for upcoming Drupalcamps.
When we learned about Context.IO's App Challenge a month ago, we decided to participate with an alternative for Drupal’s popular mailhandler module. The module has a feeds based interface and exposes a ton of options to import email from your mailbox. Our developers got so excited about the project that we even implemented a UI that lets you parse information from an email (e.g. the project name or issue number from your ticketing system).
Today there are way too many third party integration modules that are maintained by unpaid volunteers. With our submission we want to demonstrate that there is a really big opportunity for these companies to get their product in front of Drupal developers. This is really important for the Drupal community: if we can prove the value of the Drupal market, more companies will spend their marketing dollars on maintaining and promoting their integration modules.
