Is there a list anywhere on Drupal.org that someone can go look up experienced Drupal design groups to submit RFPs to?
Specifically, is there, or could there be a list that outlines the groups by specialties, size of projects, etc. Enough demographics that someone looking for Drupal specialists in the area to hire could make informed contacts to the firms that seem to best match the need?

Read moreSouth Denver Meetup Reminder
A reminder about tonight's South Denver Drupal Meetup, at the Innovation Pavilion, off I-25 near the Ikea (map).
A meeting of Drupal users from the south Denver metro area: Denver Tech Center, Lone Tree, Parker, Highlands Ranch ... you get the idea. But we welcome those from other areas as well.
We'll do triage (bring something you're stuck on) and tips and tricks (bring something neat you've discovered). Just back from Portland or DCC? Recaps from both events would be welcome.

Pair mentoring during/around DBUG
So, today, I'm going through my todo list, and I noticed a todo that states "Pair mentoring for DBUG". Which reminds me, yeah!
I've talked with a few people about interesting formats for meetups, and a format that has come up several times is the "Hack Night". I envision this is as a time where people have the opportunity to pair up based on mutual interests and hack together on whatever they like. Additionally, this is a very cool way in which face to face mentorship can occur.

DrupalCamp 2014 Ideas
This past weekend I attended my first DrupalCamp. I have a few takeaways that sreynen has encouraged me to share with the community. I sent my notes about what I think can be done to improve outreach around Aten, but the laundry list is pretty long, so I'd like to narrow the scope of recommendations here.
