Our Seattle Drupal Group has decided that instead of holding a Drupal Camp in April, we will instead hold our spring camp at LinuxFest Northwest. That will be held on April 25-26 in Bellingham, http://linuxfestnorthwest.org

We plan to hold an "un-conference", "bar-camp", or whatever else you want to call it (self-organized conference) on the Sunday of LinuxFest. We encourage everyone who knows something about Drupal to come and be ready to particpate. We'll have 3 rooms available, and paper/pens to organize who will go where to talk about what. This format worked really well for us at our mini-camp in February, and we're excited to do it again.

On Saturday, there will be more formal presentations about Drupal. If you would like to present, go to the LinuxFest web site and submit your presentation -- the LinuxFest folks will organize these talks into a schedule. At time of writing, someone is already proposing a talk about images in Drupal, and someone else is giving an introduction to Drupal. All Drupal topics are welcome; the audience at LinuxFest tends to be people who are steeped in open-source technology, but they may not be all that up on Drupal.

We will also have a room available on Saturday as a "Drupal Clinic", where people can come with their Drupal sites they are working on, and ask questions. We are hoping that Drupal experts will be willing to spend an hour or two in that room to answer questions. If you would like to staff that room, please reply here.

We'll probably have a more formal Drupal camp in the fall (October or so).

See you in Bellingham!
