Drupal Con working groups

The DrupalCon working groups session was held immediately after the DrupalCon presentations.

We went around the room and had everyone say what they were interested in. We settled on six groups and working group leaders.

1. Education -Mike Ashcroft
2. Community Journalism-Jon Garfunkel
3. Vendors-Kaliya Hamlin
4. Geo-Location-Nate Angell
5. User Experience-Chris Messina
6. Advocacy-Zack Rosen

Each working group has a leader and we have set up a page to show what was discussed. If you are interested in joining one of the groups contact the leaders. The leaders from the workshop may not be able to continue to lead these working groups so volunteering to participate is a good idea.
