"Drupal distributions panel"
summary
Panel lays out concrete outcomes: OpenEdu records 8,000 downloads and runs at ten universities; Commerce drives core work with 300 contributors and lands thousands of lines into core (helpers, entity APIs, composer templates); OpenSocial runs a ten-minute SaaS install and ships demo sites; Umami becomes the de facto demo for new core features; Lightning packages an 80% use-case starter with optional components; maintainability, testing and update chains are the recurring technical pain points.
