OSTalks #6 with Ryan Szrama from Commerce Guys

Welcome to the sixth episode of OSTalks, our new video podcast series.

Our aim with OSTalks is to present conversations with interesting people from around the open source world.

This week I’m chatting with Ryan Szrama, VP of Community Development for the Commerce Guys.

Ryan is one of the founders and lead developers for Drupal Commerce, the main e-commerce platform for Drupal 7.

Drupal Commerce offers unparalleled flexibility, customization, and scalability. A framework rather than an application, its core modules define the basic components and systems you need to do e-Commerce without any hard-coded assumptions about how you do business.

In this podcast we talk about Ryan’s start with Drupal 5 and Ubercart, building a business from “3 guys in a garage” to a multi-national software powerhouse, and we get a sneak peak at what’s coming for Drupal Commerce at DrupalCon Portland in May.
