At DrupalCon Portland, a small group got together to discuss Drupal in Latin America. We talked about the challenges and the opportunities of spreading Drupal in our region.

A Retrospect for 2013 so far

In a retrospect, the first 4 months of 2013 went amazingly well in Latin America. In 5 DrupalCamps, we were able to reach 1250 people!

http://www.drupalcampnj.org/ is a Drupal Camp held at an educational institution. In my mind, there had better be a lot of Drupal in education fans there! Planting this flag in the ground to let others know I'm going but mostly to provide an initial discussion thread as to what topics people would like to cover in BoFs at the event.

Hi Everyone

Just putting it out there that we should have a BoF for Geo Tools. There's a lot of new developments with geo tools and it would be awesome to share our collective progress and problems.

I'll put it up on the board, hoping we can have it on Saturday.

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

Apologies for the delay!

Below is a recap of the discussions had at my PM BoFs in Munich this August 2012, and the resources we talked about. Thanks to everyone who came and participated!

As is the case with most of the PM BoF’s I’ve done over the past 4 Drupalcons, the conversation I was most interested in was around lessons learned. I love it when people can discuss where their projects went off the rails, why, what drives them crazy and how we can all learn from those experiences and exchange ideas/solutions.

For those interested, I've posted the notes from a PM BoF I held at Drupalcon Denver! Some really great content came from that meeting, and I'm excited to share with you all and get your feedback :)

On Thursday, March 22, 2012, @lisarex and I ran a BoF to talk about Usability. First of all, we would like to thank every one who could make it to the session. For the others who could not make it, here is the summary from the session.

Since the group was a mix of new and existing contributors, the focus was on what we “the usability team” could do to make things better for the community.

Great to meet everyone today at the BoF DrupalCon Denver.

Some really great conversations happening.

One thing that was discussed was what do we want Drupal Rainbow to be? When the first BoF was put together in SF DrupalCon we talked about using this group to promote our efforts, activities and opportunities in the Drupal Community, support one another in our efforts, and promote a space of open thinking and communication.

How do you see us continuing that effort in this group?
What are somethings that you want to see?
