Replying to chris:
Somewhere (on the closed email list?) we have an archive of a discussion regarding whether skipping Drupal 7 would be an option, we concluded that it wasn't.
This was also discussed in this meeting, https://www.transitionnetwork.org/blogs/ed-mitchell/2014-07/transition-technologist-meeting-notes-2-july-2014
- was a thread on email list which agreed 7 not 8

Drupal 8 came out today: https://www.drupal.org/8
Somewhere (on the closed email list?) we have an archive of a discussion regarding whether skipping Drupal 7 would be an option, we concluded that it wasn't. As of today that has probably changed.
