[drupal-devel] FLOSS and community groups June 20-21 Sheffield, UK

[Kieran Lal]

Is anyone available to attend a workshop on FLOSS and 
community/voluntary groups in Sheffield, UK?

CivicSpace Labs would be happy to spend time with you in advance 
bringing you up to speed on how the Drupal platform is meeting these 
needs so that you could represent our interests at this two day 
workshop.

Please get in touch if you are interested and available.  Details are 
in the forwarded note below.

Cheers,
Kieran
