Maine Drupal User Group (MDUG) meets occasionally, sometimes on the second Tuesday of the month, from 7:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. eastern.
We will have a Zoom set up for people to connect remotely, and sometimes we'll plan to meet in Portland (when we can arrange a meeting place, and when people are available to come). The Zoom connection will be available for all the meetings, so you can connect remotely even if some of us are meeting in person.
Sign up for the email list at http://pugmaine.com. We will circulate the Zoom connection info. and meeting locations via the email list. If you have trouble adding yourself to the list or have questions, contact Todd Woofenden at todd.woofenden@acquia.com .

New England Drupalcamp is now NEDcamp.
There have been recent conversations concerning the acronym for New England Drupalcamp, and our goals for the camp. The intent has always been to create an event that promotes a greater sense of community amongst Drupal users across New England. However, we learned recently that we were jeopardizing the same sense of community we were hoping to foster with our old acronym. After listening to the concerns put forth by community members, it was time for a change.
Moving forward, New England Drupalcamp is to be known as NEDcamp.
