Peru21.pe: producing software tools
A few days ago, just before Perú21.pe redesigned, I visited Guillermo Culell and his team at El Comercio in Lima, where I met César Soplín Sánchez, web development chief.
César and I spoke for over an hour about the stuff they are doing with the sites they mange, but we spoke mostly about the development behind Peru21.pe – which works on a version of Drupal based on a combination of open source packages: Linux + Apache + Lighttpd + PHP + MySQL.
César has commented details the redesign on his own blog, Backdraft (Spanish). The redesigned Peru21.pe went public on Wednesday, the same day Le Monde made its own latest redesign public.
(A quick footnote: Peru 21 is one of several papers owned by the El Comercio holding, as is El Comercio, Perú’s biggest paper. Guillermo Culell is head of all digital content at the holding.)
