Not sure what you mean by there already. There is the old one pager
from last year, and the start of some material for a new one.

And I hope you hit "edit" to fix the -y- :P

While comments are somewhat helpful, we need actual humans to edit the
pages....that's why they're in a wiki.

It's a general use one pager, to be used when anyone from the Drupal
community attends events, conferences, etc. where they are appearing
as a representative/knowledgeable individual from the community.

I've suggested in the past that people collaborate on solutions
marketing, which could also be featured on Drupal.org, but that is not
the point of this exercise.

Thanks!
