CivicCon

Gregory Heller Speaking at Ignite Seattle in 2009

CiviCon Recap: Thoughts on CiviCRM Conference 1 Week Later, Plus Videos

It's a week and a day since the first ever CiviCon concluded. I've had a chance to encode and post all the videos from the Ingite and Lighting Talks (see below), and wanted to share just a few thoughts.  There were over 70 people at CiviCon, nearly double the number at the first DrupalCon (5 years ago). Both firsts took place 5 years after the project launched.  There were some jokes as we left the Michell Kapor Center about how big CiviCon will be in 5 years.

The opportunity to meet with so many great people working with CiviCRM was fantastic, and for me, it was the first time I had met folks from the Core team other than Dave Greenberg and Donald Lobo. I look forward to future CiviCon and meeting more people working with the software.  To that end I am going to convene a Seattle Area CiviCRM User Group (SEACUG), the first meeting of which will be announced shortly (it will be at the end of May).
