Dojo Lesson
I'll be repeating the DrupalCon talk I gave as a Dojo Lesson on October 10 at 7pm PDT (that's a Wednesday) and it will be recorded. I urge those of you with input here to show up for at least the Q&A portion as we can hopefully discuss some of the "Where to now" items with the larger community.
Great! I've calendared it
