Welcome to VANDUG!
The Vancouver Drupal Users Group (VanDUG) is the local meeting place for Greater Vancouver people interested in Drupal. We were formerly known as the Vancouver League of Drupalers, but that's a long story.
The group mostly hangs out on Slack at https://vandug.slack.com/. We also post our meetings on Meetup.com at https://www.meetup.com/Vancouver-Drupal-Users-Group. All are welcome, it's listed as a private group to keep out the griefers.
We've been holding semi-regular virtual meetings during COVID-19.

PNW Summit WSCCI Sprint

There's a lot of work left to do on WSCCI, and the best way to get it done is sustained application of skilled knowledge. (Vis, let's get to coding!)
For planning purposes, if you're going to be at the summit please RSVP on this event and post below, indicating what you're interested in working on.
