SDForum about building communities (tonight)
For those who live in the Valley, I am speaking tonight at the SDForum Open Source SIG. The topic is "Building Vibrant & Sustainable Communities". You just have to show up at the door, if you are interested (and it is only $15).The panel includes me and John Mark Walker, who is the Community Manager of Hyperic. I saw his slides beforehand and they are awesome. You should not miss the opportunity to listen to him (I am optional).
What: SDForum Open Soruce SIG: "Building Vibrant & Sustainable Communities"
