Hello,
I would like to offer the suggestion that we create a user group
liaison position within the community. This wouldn't be out of line as
we already have regional contacts for various geographic locations.
The user group liaison would be responsible for the following:
Investigating new user group potential based on geographic interest.
Assisting established user groups with communicated with the larger
community.
Assisting established user groups to get the resources they need for
events and meetings that they are being organized by the group.
This may need to be a regional position, with individual people for
Europe, North America, Japan and other regions.
That said, I would also like to nominate Selena Deckelmann for the
position. I have been working with Selena for about 2 years on various
advocacy projects and she has proven, if nothing else, the ability to
put up with me but has also shown a great attention to detail and an
ability to get people to open up to ideas so we can execute our goals
fully.
Some of the things I know she is a part of or have done.
Co Founder PDXPUG
Initiator SEAPUG
Initiator NYPUG
Initiator LAPUG (we are launching LAPUG at SCALE... be there)
Perl Monger
CoFounder Code N Splode an organization specifically designed to help
(and support) get Woman interested in coding. (35+ members)
She is also a board member of Legion of Tech a technical planning non
profit in charge of Barcamp PDX, Ignite PDX and Startpoolooza PDX (sp?).
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
