"Let's Have a 'Design 4 Drupal' Bar Camp to Welcome Designers into the Our Great Drupal Community"

First off, this is not a Drupal-specific event. It is for Adobe's new release of CS6, Creative Cloud and their Touch Apps. I recognize some of you are FOSS purists and if this post offends you in some way, please feel free to down-vote it if you want.

On the other hand, I believe other members of the Drupal community use Adobe tools for media creation and may find this interesting.

Now in it's 14th year, OSCON is where all the pieces of the open platform come together. Unlike other conferences that focus entirely on one language or part of the stack, OSCON deals with the open source ecosystem in its entirety, exactly as you approach it in your work. Join us July 16-20, 2012 in Portland, OR for the annual gathering of open source innovators, builders, and pioneers.
