2007: Year of the Drupal training event

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.
You are viewing a wiki page. You are welcome to join the group and then edit it. Be bold!

While there have been many major accomplishments for the Drupal community in 2007, none have been more prominent than the outbreak of local events. I would like to get a total number of training events and a total number of attendees for Drupal training events that we could use in marketing. Here's an initial list of Drupal training events. Please update and add any events not included, like on this map.
