Backdrop CMS Contribution Event/Sprint - (12/15/18)

Start: 
2018-12-15 12:00 - 15:00 America/Chicago
Organizers: 
Event type: 
Sprint

I've been digging deeper and deeper into Backdrop CMS over the last few months and getting more and more involved with the Backdrop project. I am trying not to fill up the local Drupal user group forum with Backdrop announcements, but since the connection between Drupal and Backdrop is so strong, I think it appropriate to post the occasional update or event.

Here is what is happening with Backdrop CMS locally:

1) I'm creating a local Backdrop CMS user group page at Meetup.com where anyone interested in Backdrop can meet and get announcements (then I won't need to post here as much).
