Hi everyone!
This is a supplemental meetup that differs from the main ADUG monthly meetups in that there's no set time or agenda. This is a very informal gathering for anyone who interested in Drupal and who wants to get in touch with other members of the local community. Bring your laptop down and show us what you're working on or just sit back with a cup of coffee and one of Mozart's great desserts and join the chat.

Help us make Drupal 8 training available for everyone
Hi all,
Drupal 8 is getting close now with under 40 critical bugs left: https://drupalreleasedate.com/chart/samples. It's possible that we'll see a release in September: https://drupalreleasedate.com/
At OSTraining (we were based on the north-side of Atlanta, for many years), we'd like to make sure that as many people as possible can use Drupal 8.
However, many new Drupal 8 users will need training, which can be expensive and difficult to find.
So, we're running a campaign to give everyone free access to the very best Drupal 8 training.
