Hi everyone,

Steve Purkiss and I were elected to the board.

There is a board retreat coming up in June - I would like to better understand the issues being faced by the international Drupal community, so I can represent them to the board...

Do you have ideas? concerns? questions? Please post here, or find me on irc, or twitter, or use the contact form to get in touch.
