Drupal Association
If you have a question or suggestion for the Drupal association you can use this group to have a public discussion. Members of the Drupal association will monitor this group and try their best to respond in a reasonable amount of time. The association makes all official announcements on http://association.drupal.org/ and only uses
this as a means to receive and respond to feedback.
This is an experiment to see if it helps spread knowledge of the association in a valuable manner.
Please do not post Jobs into this group. There are plenty of other places to do that.
DRAFT Drupal Association code sprint sponsorship guidelines
As part of its role of supporting the Drupal project, the Drupal Association (DA) offers occasional help in planning and organizing and funding Drupal code sprints.
Code sprints are an important way that advances are made in Drupal development, both in core and in contributions. Sprints are generally self-organized and self-funded: individuals interested in participating communicate with each other, choose a time and place, and get sponsorship as needed for travel expenses, a venue, etc. from their employers, clients, and other sources.

Open Source Bridge
The following description is from the organizers:
Open Source Bridge is a completely volunteer-run conference for open source citizens held June 17-19 in Portland, Oregon. Focused on developers working with open source technologies, the event features five tracks connecting people across projects, languages, and backgrounds to explore how those developers approach their work, and why they participate in open source. The conference structure is designed to provide developers with an opportunity to learn from people they might not connect with at other events.

What are the future goals of the Drupal Association?
Hi All, as of suggestion of @heather I republish here my Issue on http://drupal.org/node/336185
as to gain some feedback that might help my understanding of the goals and rules that
exist in written or not written form for the Drupal.org Community.
testing.drupal.org
Splitting the discussion from here:
http://lists.drupal.org/pipermail/development/2008-August/030879.html
afaik, the steps to get this running are:
- Abstract comment creation functionality in project_issue.module - http://drupal.org/node/271216
- Allow testing.drupal.org to post back to issues and mark as code needs work when patches don't apply.
- Get all known failures cleared
- Allow testing.drupal.org to post back to issues and mark as code needs work when core tests fail
- Extend this to Drupal 6

Introducing The Drupal Nigeria Initiative and soliciting support.
Hi Y'All,
Its my humble pleasure to introduce to you The Drupal Nigeria Initiative. This initiative is being pioneered by my company Living Portals & Systems right here in the heart of eastern Nigeria. Just like every project there are some reasons and objectives behind this initiative.
Setting up a dual-purpose dedicated fund?
First and foremost, I really appreciate the work that the D.A. does on behalf of the community. Thank you for everything.
After Drupalcon (again - thanks!), I got thinking about the potential challenges that new money may bring to our community. One way to handle the moment, however, may be to setup a dual-purpose fund to be administered by the DA on behalf of the community.
One part of that fund could be for recognizing already-made contributions to the community. Merit would be rewarded just a bit more this way, and thereby even further incented into the future.
