Project Verity
Mark Boulton and Leisa Reichelt just launched Project Verity, which looks to ultimately be a Drupal admin theme aimed at content creators and site editors. It will be “designed in the open and available soon,” although the site says it will be a paid/premium theme.
I asked Mark Boulton about that last part via Twitter:
@markboulton it will be a paid/premium theme?
And his reply:
@mcrittenden Yes it will. This is aimed very clearly at agencies developing sites for people like verity.
That doesn’t make very much sense to me. I’m sort of confused about the notion of designing a theme in the open and then charging for it.
Also, I’m a little confused as to the difference between Verity and Seven, the D7 admin theme they designed. Seems like they would fit the same use case.
That said, I’m pleased to see them taking the initiative I’ll be very interested to see what comes of this and how the community reacts.
